writes: There is a wonderful lady with whom I worked for many years. We have been very good friends for a long time. And I've always been kind of interested in her, but never did anything because we worked together. Anyway, I recently was laid off due to downsizing, so I don't see her every day any longer. But we still communicate - phone calls, e-mails, texts etc., although I haven't seen her in person in over a month. (She is incredibly busy, and sometimes a week between calls! But she texts or e-mails every day.) Anyway, I miss her and I wonder if a relationship is now possible. But I've never had good luck with women, and I don't want to push too hard. How do I bring up the subject without appearing TOO forward? (And before that, how do I even get some face-to-face contact?)

Michael J is verified as being by the original poster of the question(Me again.) Thanks. I'll get up the nerve the next time I talk to her... if I can get her on the phone. I don't want to do it by text or e-mail -- although it definitely would be easier, it doesn't seem right to do it that way.

I agree with eyeswideopen i think you have to just bite the bullett and ask her out, she has stayed in contact with you for a reason and if it was just to be friends i don't think she would email and text everyday.
Take care.xx.

Well Michael, why don't you ask her out for coffee or dinner? If she has stayed in contact with you she obviously likes you. Go for it Buddy!
