<< You should know better than to go after women at work. *cough*

Well, if you're married and she is also, you shouldn't. :)
>>


yeah only an idiot would try to date someone they worked with. especially if you are going on a vacation in the near future and you want to wait to commit to anything until you get back from said vacation, because there is that off chance you could score on vacation. :p anyways...

Michael, i think the guys here are pretty much right. i wouldn't pursue anything and just try to be her friend. if she is indeed interested (which she probably isn't, no offense) she will let you know. ;)

<< You bastard! Thats my mom! >>


Muuuuwahahahahahahahah!!! :)
Point:
Take it from someone that went there (I was the single one)---IT will bite you in the ass, leaving a huge, gaping, bloody hole that oozes for years. Get the picture?

<< say just keep it friendly until she accosts you :) >>




That's exactly what she's waiting on from you! J/K, just show interest so she knows if she is serious. Then let HER make the first move. Cover all your bases and you should be good to go :) ;)

If you want to be partially responsible for tearing apart a family, keep going along with it. i.e. RUN! and don't looks back!

<< She may indeed be flirting with you, but that doesn't mean she's wanting to have an affair. I say just keep it friendly until she accosts you :) >>

This is true. I am always terrified to touch my hair when talking to guys, because it is "widely known" that when a woman touches her hair during conversation, she wants you :eek::disgust: Nevermind that I have long, wavy hair that sometimes gets in my face. Similarly, sometimes when we are being friendly, we would act the exact same way to a woman (i.e. someone that we are not hitting on). So even though you may be hot (and she may find you attractive), friendliness in no way indicates that.

Agreed, this shouldn't even be a question.

Dude,
you need to get a real woman so you can stop fapping your co-workers.

<< When she see's you the halls she makes it a point to be pleasant and converse with you.. lol, Dude you've got an excess
of spring hormone action going on.



Btw, I seldom discussed my home or family life at work ,it's called being professional, smart women down play family obligations if they wish to advance into positions requiring overtime or a lot of travel.
>>



Unload your excess hormon.

<< damn hormones; where's the off-switch? >>



I dont think you want to use the off switch... It involves cutting things off that you may or may be able to reattach later on.

My God; I now feel so incredibly guilty for even thinking that she was coming on to me....*crawls under desk and sobs quietly*

I have personally played the "Date your coworkers" game. It never works out and ALWAYS blows up in your face...not quite as graphically as TapTap put it (ewwwwwwww!) but close.

She works in a diff department on the other side of the building (i.e. two blocks away) but I'll leave it alone (bad, BAD one-eyed wonder-worm, BAAAAD!) and go back to the business of whatever it was I was doing before she blinded me w/her beauty...or words to that effect. :)

Thanks for slapping me upside the head, AT; I needed it, apparently. :D

Remember an episode from the 'Night Court' when Dan Fielding stayed out from sex for several days?
Ha ha ha...your co-workers should be very very afraid. :Q

Even if she is showing interest, forget it. Breaking up a family isn't worth it.
