I guess you live in Chasey's World
You cannot lump together all people into what they will do in certain situations.

My guy and I work together, been friends and then best friends and now he is moving in with me. We have known each other for about 14 yrs, though, so maybe we are a special case. And we have had our share of ups and downs, just made a couple of rules in the beginning and stuck to them....wow, I love him!!!sushisamba said:These days, "they' say most relationships start between co-workers. The interesting thing is, "they" don't say how those relationships end.

That's not what I'm saying. Take for example the "control freak." This person will call you 50 times a day, drive by your house when you don't answer, and question every person that you glance at.morganj614 said:
The "abuser" will manipulate you and your choices of friends. They will make you feel guilty about going out w/out them. If you don't answer the phone, they get angry, then apologize.
Then again, you can be in a perfectly good relationship, and one day the individual gets fed up and all hell breaks loose.
I was watching a show the other night and a guy was talking to a (female) coworker about another, wondering if she thought the other would be interested in going out with him...bresamil said:
She told him that that was just plain lazy!
That he wasn't even going to adventure out of his routine to ask someone out or to seek someone out to date, basically. He just picked someone at work!

I think it would end up icky. Not because of the behavior of either party as much as everyone else in the company "monitoring" the relationship.
Therefore, as much as I appreciate my company's recent change of policy to actually allow attractive men to work for them, I believe I will decline anything other than friendship from the workplace.

And that dried up prune was only, or said he was only 5 years older than me. I don't mind 7-10 years on either side of my age but I lean toward the younger side..
Still, no eye candy over here
