"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I'll probably play it safe until we can get together outside of work...no use in potentially screwing things up since I'm confident I can seal the deal within another week's time. Thanks fellas.
By the way...if both of you were in a COMMITTED relationship (and working in different companies)...especially when both are dating for a while...I personally don't see anything wrong with what Iqqi gave as advice. Especially if you are in a position to introduce her as your girlfriend.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

the corporate world is more gossipy than a f*cking day time soap opera.

you start kissing someone at work and people start to talk. if they don't know the story they will make up a story just for the fun of it.

its the quickest way to basically sabotage your reputation.

people will stop taking you seriously at meetings. people will talk about you behind your back. etc.

when you go to work you should always keep your game face on - your WORK game face.

I totally agree with you...as I have been in the receiving end of "gossiping". Not a GREAT place to be. Especially when the gossiping was related to women and I.
