Is it normal to develop feelings for a co-worker?

[FalconKnight]

Started working at a company, that I got hired at a couple days ago. Today, I saw a co-worker of mine, that instantly got my attention. I didn’t introduce myself because I was too nervous and just started working for the company. I know being interested in someone at work never goes right, but I’ll keep things low key.

I know I gotta talk to her and work with her more before asking for her phone number. Not sure how I’ll ask for the number yet and I’m not sure how long I’ll need to get to know her before I do.

Yes, it is completely normal.

No, it’s definitely not.

If you care at all about your job, forget about her. You have no idea how many blowjobs she has given at the Christmas Party, how many office guys she has dated/fucked, or how many bosses want to fuck her.

[FalconKnight]

You have a good point.

[DevylasArsaukas76]

believe me when you're sitting in the jr executive office, or whatever high position your job has, you'll be glad you relented, and focused on your job instead

It’s almost guaranteed to happen in a unisex work environment however if you’re single “gopher it” if not shame on you

[FalconKnight]

I just gotta figure out the right way to approach this at my job.

[DevylasArsaukas76]

if not, focus on your job, and look for dates outside the work environment

[Anonymous]

ya, though you obviously do not have feelings for her since you never even talked to her xD You just find her attractive. I would suggest to get to know her better before considering asking her out.

It is normal but you have to be smart about it. It could turn out to be a nightmare.

[FalconKnight]

Will do! Any good advice would help.

I never dated anyone I worked with but somebody where I work expressed some interest in me (I am married) and I had to give her a good leaving alone.

[FalconKnight]

Good call!

[Shihab91]

Sure, an amazing woman spend 8hrs daily in the same place with you. You can't ignore

[FalconKnight]

You’re right!

[DevylasArsaukas76]

it's not professional, co-workers shouldn't date

[Shihab91]

As long as they keep it out of the work environment nothing wrong

[DevylasArsaukas76]

yeah but it can still impact the work environment regardless

[RCLJT]

It can happen, but it’s a slippery slope, if you hook up and she’s not impressed with the size of your dick, the rumors and jokes will start. If the relationship fails, ultimately one of the 2 will end up leaving the company.

[DevylasArsaukas76]

it's normal but don't do anything rash or unpredictable due to those feelings, anything can be considered sexual harassment these days watch out

Some women at my job make me feel funny in my pants. I think that is natural. I often offer to massage their uteruses

[FalconKnight]

Definitely not the way to go.

[Opinion Owner]

and yet half have taken me up on the offer.

[DevylasArsaukas76]

and how have you not been written up on sexual harassment charges?

[Opinion Owner]

@DevylasArsaukas76 It is only harassment if it is unwanted

[DevylasArsaukas76]

true but if another female co-worker heard you, they might not be so comfortable, with it, it doesn't have to be aimed at the recipient for it to constitute harassment

[Opinion Owner]

@DevylasArsaukas76 Yes, that is completely correct. Here is what I normally do. When I spy a new girl in the office I wait until she is walking by the supply closet and then I grab her and drag her in there. I only say those things while we are both in the closet. That way nobody else can overhear and be offended. Pretty smart, huh?

[KrakenAttackin]

True, it's only sexual harassment of you are unattractive.

[Opinion Owner]

@KrakenAttackin It appears that is true.

[DevylasArsaukas76]

@KrakenAttackin so if you're good looking you can get away with it?

[Opinion Owner]

@DevylasArsaukas76 Haven't you been around women before?

[KrakenAttackin]

@DevylasArsaukas76 Correct.

[DevylasArsaukas76]

@KrakenAttackin what if you're good looking but are socially awkward?

[DevylasArsaukas76]

yeah I have, they're a different breed,

[Iron_Man]

Yes it has happened

[FalconKnight]

Thanks for letting me know.

[Iron_Man]

You’ve Welcome

[Anonymous]

It happens.

[FalconKnight]

Just making sure. From your perspective, would you feel uncomfortable, if a co-worker had feelings for you and wanted to get to know you?

[DevylasArsaukas76]

has anyone ever gotten fired or disciplined for it?
