In Reply To: I can relate to those who feel office romances are great to spice up the workplace. But unfortunately, when it doesn't work-out it makes the workplace very awkward...especially so when you work in close proximity with that person. I had a "summer fling" with someone in my workplace. We are still employed in the same company, but sometimes I have to count my blessing that we don't work together! I must admit I still have feelings for this person, and there are times when it's pretty difficult to concentrate on what I'm doing especially after we see each other in the hall. I wouldn't tell people to never have office romances....just know the consquences...like it may not work out in your favor, and are you willing to deal with seeing the person on a daily basis?
Message: Yeah- I concurr. It just happened to me- today. worst part is- she is right across the hall from me- i see her everytime i step out. And we used to be really good friends. Now its really awkward, and I don't feel comfortable walking into the office in the morning. I am thinking of looking for something else. Any suggestions? Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed, passed over- but I look right through, and you don't see me, Here I am expecting just a little bit too much from the woman- but I see- see through it all see through, see you.
