My buddy wrote me an email and it says..

"Last month I got promoted at work. There was a girl working in the position I took who I had met once before, several months before then, we didn't really know eachother all that well, but I found it funny that she was actually the one who had suggested me for the position when she got promoted. Anyways, she trained me for 2 days before she left and we kind of flirted on and off during that time. Now she is at another property on the other side of town. We email back and forth all the time, mostly me asking her questions about stuff I don't know how to do yet, but sometimes it's playful banter.

She just broke up with her bf and made sure I knew that about 3 weeks ago. We seem to have a connection, we both have very similar life stories and have both been through life with crazy familes that made us grow up faster. I asked her if she wanted to go to a hockey game last week because I know she likes hockey and I figured she'd say no, but she said that would be cool. She calls me the day we are supposed to go and has to cancel because she is still moving to her new apartment so I'm thinking, oh well. Then the next night she calls me out of the blue and wants to know if I want to go out with her and her friends for St. Patty's day.

I was kind of hesitant but said sure, she told me we were all meeting at her apartment at 8 to get a cab and go and gave me directions. Being nice, I took her a bottle of wine as a house warming gift and showed up at about 8:15. Nobody was there and all of a sudden it was, "oh they won't be here till around 9, they are still getting ready." She warns me that she has a dog that hates men because he was abused as a puppy, but after a few barks he ends up chilling on the couch with me so she is impressed that he likes me. Then she makes me pizza to eat and we just sit on the couch talking about how we grew up and other stuff.

So her friends get there and we all get a cab and go out, there were about 10 of us total, I pay for the cab ride to be an upstanding guy and her friends think I'm the coolest thing on the block and want to pay me back but I just tell them to buy me a few beers each and we're good. Too bad they didn't realize a few to me is like 15 .

So we stay out till about 4 am, we hang out quite a bit, but honestly I just tried to have fun and get to know her friends since some of them work for the same company as me. The two of us had some drunk talk about life and growing up. When we go to leave she complains she is cold so I take off my long sleeve t and put it on her and rub her back a bit which she doens't seem to mind. Somehow the girl manages to break both heels so I carry her to the cab. We get back to her place and her friends want to go to another party and there was some random guy that jumped in our cab with us that had been trying to flirt with her all night, but I messed that up for him with the whole shirt thing and when I sat between them in the cab, haha.

Her friends end up dragging him out of her apt. and seemed to have no issues leaving me there with her alone. I ended up sleeping there since I was drunk and didn't want to drive, being 10 miles from my apt. I think she knew that ahead of time and didn't seem to mind. Anyways after talking for a bit she goes to bed and I sleep on her couch. Next morning she makes us breakfast and then we both have to go to work. She emails me all day, most of them fairly flirting here and there and to tell me she is getting sick. I call her that night after a basketball game, but she was so sick she had no voice so I told her to get better soon and I'd talk to her later.

We haven't talked much this week, mostly because she has bronchitis now. Still had a few emails back and forth but I don't think she is feeling too well. I really like this girl, in fact I am crushing on her bad. We both have so much in common and have scarily close growing up stories. It's almost like she's me in a woman's body. I'm just worried that maybe she's being nice to me just because that's how she is. I also know she just broke up from a 4 yr relationship which is why I didn't try anything at all when I spent the night. She made sure I knew she was single though and was completely done with her ex as in never talking to him again.

She has told me a lot about her personal life which is odd since we've only hung out face to face one time since I met her. I want to ask her out but of course I always second guess the signs. I mean for me the writing is on the wall, she invites me over and her friends just "happen" to be an hour late then they drag this other guy out of her apt. so we can be alone together. She seems to be completely comfortable with me and we really haven't known eachother long enough to be friends. I'm thinking about asking her to go out again next week once she feels better, to a hockey game or something. I just don't want to wait around and then she loses interest.

So what do you think? Sorry for the book, I just feel that you could actually make a qualified suggestion would be able to do something with all the info."

Seems pretty obvious, but I just wouldn't rush into anything. Hang out casually and if she wants more I'm sure she'll let you know. Him. Whoever.

If she is your supervisor of any sort - or you have to work close - no way.
Ya don't ka-ka on your own dinner table. (Redneck way of saying don't mix your 'work' with your 'play')

If not - ask her out - no harm in it at this point.

But then...don't care.

Sharp is stalking Kasey

I am going to stalk Fresh...:wink:
