Re: Crush at work
 
Best advice I can give is to buy her loads of stuff like drinks, chocolate and whatever. then at the end of the night tell her that she owes you know. any real woman would know that anyway :)

I've never had to resort to that as it's them that want to buy me everything. anyone would think they were trying to buy me :)

I hope you're single and no woman was stupid enough to take you if that's how you think.

I thought this thread was gonna be about compensation advise.
It could still end up that way i suppose:)

There is more to love than looks Mr DRZ400.

Only ugly people say that.

Ask her out for lunch as a means to getting her alone to talk to her. A simple request to take the lady out to lunch to chat is probably easier for you and her.

She may well be wondering why you haven't asked her out yet so to asking her out now may get her flustered and catch her off gaurd.... whereas a lunch is a chance to communicate without interruption.

Over lunch tell her you actually wanted to ask her out but wasn't sure how she'd react. Tell her if she wants to just be friends, that's fine but if she'd like a night out to see how you get on with each other outwith the work situation that'd be even better.

Be honest with her and remind yourself that you have got a lot to offer.

As Tennyson said. Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

As ABBA said. Take a chance:) Good luck and keep us posted.

- She asks me to do jobs for her.
- She doesnt mind me coming to talk to her.
- She's on my facebook page.
- We have things in common.
- We've shared chocolate together.
- She knows I like her.

Bad points:

- I go to see her, She doesnt come to see me. Although this could be becuase I'm never in the same place at work.
- She never gives clear signals. If she knows I like her she is not doing anything about it.
- We sometimes cross eyes passing and I don't know what she's thinking.

... from which I would conclude that she enjoys your attentions but isn't interested in taking things any further. Sorry ...

At my first workplace there were 2 young women - I had crushes on both of them (different times of course) - I went out with one of them for the best part of a year, and married the other one...


so be careful of what you start :)

Well I thought it was time to give an update on this situation......

I put off asking her for a few weeks as I was really busy at work but finally did on Thursday and she wants to go out for a drink next week.
No idea how things will turn out but even if we end up being just friends I'm happy.
After the last few depressing months, I feel like this is a breath off fresh air!

If you are in the same situation as me, go for it!
