    Tips to get a co-worker

    I've really fallen for a guy at work. He's so hot, he's smokin. He's almost perfect. He broke up with his girlfriend a couple of weeks ago. I want him. How do I get him? without making an idiot of myself. Today we just happened to look at each other at the same time..one of those glances He made a kissing face and stuck his toungue out and was wiggling it about. haha. He's great fun. How do I make that happen for real? Any suggestions most welcome..

    Here's a tip. Don't dip your pen in company ink.

    It's generally bad practice, frowned upon by management, and could lead to one or both of you losing your jobs. The company I work for employs several couples who have worked for the CEO at various other companies for years. It's the first such company I've found with such an attitude towards employees dating.

    It depends on how serious the job is and how long you intend to stay there.
    Is it burnin'? Well, f-ck, now you're learnin'.

    Write him a note like this:

    Do you want to go on a date with me? (check one)

    ___ yes

    ___ no
    Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

    Why not find a way to make it over to his desk around lunchtime and ask him to be your lunch buddy? Then during lunch you can get to know him better and see if there are mutual sparks.

    I also would agree with Lite about being very cautious about a workplace romance. Not only because of company policies, but also because if it doesn't work out it could be uncomfortable for you to have to see him everyday.

    If you're willing to take those risks, then flirt away.

    Like people have already said, watch what you do when it comes to dating someone you work with.

    I met my ex at work and things we're great until she decided at the 3 month mark another guy at work was more attractive than me.

    I still work with her and its a little frustrating because I see her and her new doormat at work all the time. I just shut people out of my life that cheat or generally just don't care about me, so I can handle it.

    Just for warning though, it can get sticky.

    Just hang out at lunchtime and see what happens.

    Though, if something doesn't work out between the two of you be ready for lots of creepy awkwardness at work.

    Apart from not wanting to get involved at work (great advice) ... do you really want to be played like that? An appropriate response would have been a smile, and a "Hi" ... a kissing face with tongue wiggling means he wants to have no emotion sex with you and dump you in the pile of women who stupidly believed that it meant more.

    So if your interest in him is limited to f**king a hot guy and nothing more, then respond. But if you want more, avoid him like the plague!
