Question - (25 September 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 29 September 2009)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Hello

I was angry at a guy who is my colleague and did not talk to him because I thought he wasn't nice to me.

Today the guy asked me:" to be friends and see where this will lead, also he said that we can meet each other outside our working place". First I rejected him and told him because you weren't nice to me. He told me that I missunderstood him. So I told him that I accepted his suggestion(to be friends...).

- This guy is popular at the job. Always when I see him, I see other girls talking and laughing with him. But I never talked to him because I was angry at him. Everyone at the job never saw me talk to him even once.

- Also, What will everyone say if I suddenly starts to talk to him and try to be get his attention? What shall I do?

- What does this guy mean with his "suggestion"? Is he dating me or he only wants to spend a time with me?

- What can I do to let him like me more? Shall I invite him to celebrate that we are friends? Or shall I let him do the first move? Shall I find a reason and text?

- I know that this collegue likes me. He even on purpose makes me jealous when he laughs and jokes with the other girls. At the same time he makes me jealous he looks at me to see how I react.

I do not like when he talks a lot with the other girls and laugh with them. What can I do if he continues laugh and talks to the girls a lot. I see that the girls like to talk and laugh with only him.

The girls don't like me and almost ignores me.All their attention is on this guy. What can I do? How canI behave towards these girls and him at the job?

So, now me and this guy is supposed to be friends.

- I do not want someone to know at the job that we are somewhat "together" because I do not want other girls to be jealous and chase him even more.

- How will I behave at the job? Shall I tell him to not tell anyone about us? Shall I be friend with him even at the work.

- Please help me because I am very confused. I do not know what to do.

eyeswideopen agony auntAll of you questions are testimonials for why people should NOT date co-workers. Sure when the dating is going fine then no problem but when things go sour you are stuck working with them every day. It is just a bad idea at the get go. You can try to just be friends but I'd advise you to not to take it any further.
