Today, my coworker began flirting with the new guy at work and accepted a date with him. I’ve been trying to get with her for months and she'd told me, “Sorry, I don’t fraternize with colleagues.” I called her out on it and she told me, “OK, I’ll spell it out for you: I do fraternize with attractive colleagues.” FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the girl I work with, who I’ve developed feelings for, started dating another guy at work. She’d told me that she “doesn’t believe” in dating coworkers and she doesn’t “shit where she eats.” FML
Today, I tried hitting on the new receptionist at work. After a few flirtatious comments and subtly hinting that I thought she was bangable, she informed me that she's married to our boss. FML
Today, the coworker I have been hitting it off with rejected me. Apparently she has a crush on another male employee. An employee who is married and somehow has three other girls in our store actually fighting over him (I've heard arguments). She thinks she has a chance? FML
Today, my colleagues have been trying to play matchmaker between myself and the new girl at the office. I'll admit we share more similarities than differences from what I've learned so far, but I know something my colleagues don't: she's actively pursuing a guy through online dating. FML
Today, I told some coworkers I’m dating a new girl. One of my female coworkers then burst into tears. For the rest of the day, women in the office were giving me dirty looks like I broke the poor girl's heart. Um, I asked her out twice, then politely gave up when she rejected me twice. FML
Today, I asked the guy I share a desk with at work out because he has texted me a few times and seemed pretty into me. He said he doesn't date coworkers, even though the last 5 people he's dated have been coworkers. FML
Today, I found out that the coworker I’d been crushing on told me he was gay so I wouldn’t hit on him anymore. Turns out he did that so he could focus on wooing a female coworker of mine. They’re now dating. FML
Today, after what I thought was several weeks of flirting with a coworker, I asked her out on a date. She asked if it could be a double date, and I said yes. I brought a friend, she brought her husband. FML
Today, I told my boss about a coworker that had been hitting on me. She looked me dead in the eye and said "I was afraid that would happen. He's a bit of a chubby chaser." FML
Today, I confronted my coworker, who I had a crush on, for lying to me. He’d told me he was gay when I asked him out. He’s now dating another coworker of mine who’s a woman. He took this up with my boss, and I was written up for “creating a hostile work environment.” FML

She doesn't owe you a date. You asked her and she said no. Move on.

She was trying to spare your feelings, When a girls says no it's best not to press the matter.

Right. She declined politely, and you "Called her out" on it? That's just rude on your part. Take a hint.

She didn’t decline politely. She lied. He has the right to call her out. What you do in the dark always comes to light.

She sounds untrustworthy bitch. Why did she have to lie to you and tell you she doesn’t date coworkers? Then proceeds to date one? What happens in the dark always comes to light. Dont worry about her. You dodged a bullet. You deserve someone honest. Not some bitch who has to spin a lie.

@copalolita - Get therapy.

For what? 🤨

@copalolita For being so sexist and entitled that you can't even comprehend that the woman WASN'T INTERESTED in the guy creeping on her and that SHE gets to decide who she finds attractive. Creeps and guys who think we owe them sex just because we happen to exist in the same space are 🤮. This is why you're still stuck in your Mum's basement whispering sweet nothings to your favourite crusty sock.

Wait, so I’m sexist and entitled for calling someone a liar? Explain your thought process as to how you came to that conclusion. Also, I’m happily married and my parents passed away. Assume makes an ASS out of U and ME.

"trying to get with her for months" She probably said it to get OP to stop hitting on her. For months.

She said no. stop harassing girls if they turn you down. Sounds more like she dodged a bullet

Sounds like she tried to let him down gently, but mr stalker over here couldn’t accept that. So now his little possessive feeling are hurt.

Lying to someone is not sparing their feelings. It’s deceptive.

"I have been trying with her for months." Sounds like this guy is cherry picking his excuses. She probably did tell him no plained and simple the first time, but if a simple no wasn't enough for him I can see why she used the coworker excuse to get him to finally stop. Sadly honesty is not enough of a no for some people.

"Trying to get with her for *months*." No pity. Should've taken the L and moved on after the first rejection.

Jesus, you sound like a damn incel. No one owes you anything. She said No, take it. However you have to take it, just take it. Entitled assholes that can’t take the word No in the first place is why she has to craft an excuse, as this is the type of behavior she has to endure if she gives you an honest answer up front. Which has sometimes proven dangerous in today’s society for them. Either work on yourself or stop bitching. YDI
