Is asking out your coworker really as bad and dangerous as reddit says? Even if you do it in the most polite/least creepy way possible
>>85106002I dated and fucked coworkers when I was like 20-ish, but that was at a job I didn't give a shit about and they asked me out first.
>>85106002It's a hit or miss because how they act at work is miles away from how they act outsidePlus, you only know stuff from their "professional" sideThere's an older co-worker that's been coming onto me, treating me lunch, buying me giftsTurns out she's married
>>85106002Its always a gamble. Up to you if you think its worth it.
>"hey *coworker*, do you want to get lunch or a drink together sometime?">"no thank you">"alright. well, see ya, have a good day!" then forget that interaction ever occurred and never engage with them outside of work stuff so they have no chance of trying to bring up sexual harassment ir whateverit's really that easy. it's only hard if she says yes, but at that point you should he okay with sacrificing your job for some puss
>>85106108>hey *coworker*, do you want to get lunch or a drink together sometime?>No thank you>Anon this is HR we have a sexual harassment complaint against you, says here you raped your coworker.>Yes we here in HR are all women so we all agree asking out a girl who isn't into you is basically rape.
I did it once and she said no and then I didn't ask again but the whole store knew I liked her. I didn't get in trouble or anything and I didn't make it weird, but it motivated me to get out of that job and it helped my career to move forward after being in a rut for a few years.I could imagine it being a problem if you aren't cool like me though.
>>85106948Then gossip will spread and you will start getting confronted by people for being creepy
>>85106002Oh hey, I just made a post about this same dilemma, re: "I think I have a crush on two of my male coworkers."I think it could tunr out really bad, but I don't go out often so my coworkers are some of the only people I see regularly. It's difficult to not have crushes.
>>85106002The thing is that if she says no it has the potential to make things at work really fucking awkward, especially if she doesn't think too highly of you and likes to gossip.If she's normal and thinks you're a decent dude she'll probably just reject nicely but foids can be really unpredictable in this department
