Should I date my coworker if we both like each other?

workplace relationships can be a double edged sword at times.

He messages me a lot and tries to make me laugh. One of our work friends told me he likes me and thinks I’m cool.

Ask yourself this question: How awkward would it be if you did date this person and then broke up?

[Jendcheuebc]

True. Maybe I’lljust wait til I get a new job or switch teams. I bet we’ll stay in touch.

[Wise4myage]

Sounds good.

Depends how important your job is to you. If things go south you're still going to have to deal with this person even after the relationship ends.

We work remote though most of the time lol

How will you handle it if it doesn't work?

[Jendcheuebc]

I mean I don't know, I have to be 100% sure he likes me first. My other coworker told me once he likes me and thinks I’m cool, but I don't know in what context. He texts me outside of work sometimes and added me on LinkedIn and mentioned meeting up sometime to work together.

Be careful dating at work
