Member #372,145There is this girl that I like at work, and lately we’ve become friendly. She has said “I love you” a few times; as gratitude and in a friendly way but I have no idea what to say back. I don’t want to say it back and end up revealing how I feel because I don’t think she feels the same way, though I admit I am rather inept at telling when a woman is interested. And I don’t want to sound/be creepy either. No idea what to say/do.
It’s not that I don’t have the confidence to ask her out, I just don’t want to make work awkward if she says no. I know most people are against dating co-workers these days, but I haven’t felt like this towards someone in a long time and she’s definitely worth the risk.
February 11, 2015 at 11:43 pm #27241I’m not against co-workers dating. In fact, I think it makes a lot of sense — if you’re willing to be civilized if things don’t work out, and as long as you understand that you can’t trade work favors for personal ones. Most singles work, and the workplace is a great way to meet someone! That said, you can’t have your cake and eat it too — in other words, you can’t want to ask her out, but not want to because it might be awkward. I don’t know how old you are, but I think you have to realize that anytime you ask someone out, you may get a rejection, or you may get a positive response. You have to be wiling to risk rejection in order to get a yes — you can’t have the affirmative response without asking.
😉 So, my advice is to simply ask her out for drinks after work or to see a movie on the weekend. If she says no, you can’t win them all, but at least you gave it a shot, and if she says yes, have a great date!😉 [b]Everyone likes to be liked!

Member #372,175im also at a crossroads her I asked a woman at work out and she said maybe . the thing is shes always laughing at my shit jokes always smiling and playfull touching my arm and hugging me. she has 2 kids which I am aware that they will play apart in her decision but the thing is im crazy about her and I havnt really cared for anyone at all since my ex died how should I proceed February 18, 2015 at 7:53 pm #27188I would love to answer you, [b]greeney[/b] , but first…. please start a new topic (top left corner of the forum page) and create your own string of posts. I’ll look out for you to repost this question, and I’ll answer you there. It is less confusing on the forum when each string of posts is primarily about one person’s relationships.[b]Everyone likes to be liked!
