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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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
Today, after many years of being single, I finally worked up the courage to ask my coworker out. He said no and gave me "fair warning" that he's going to report me for sexual harassment. 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, 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 finally worked up enough courage to ask out the guy I've had a crush on for months. I texted him, and he thought I was Maddy from work, not Maddie his neighbor. Now he and the Maddy from his work are dating. FML
Today, a guy I've liked for a while asked if he could talk to me during break. He'd never done that before, so I was excited and said yes. As soon as we both sat down, he asked if I'd help him get a date with my best friend. FML
Today, I was having a good talk with a coworker and I was excited that I've made my first friend at work. After sharing some stories and some laughs he asked if I had a boyfriend. I said I do. He asked if I was always faithful, I said I was. He then walked away. FML
Today, the guy I've been crushing on at work finally asked me out to lunch. I was nervous we wouldn't have anything to talk about. He spent the entire hour talking about how amazing his new girlfriend is. FML
Today, I asked out a coworker I really like. She gave me a weird look and said, "You're not gay?" I said no, to which she said, "Well, I am". As it turns out, I was the only one who thought she was straight, and the only one who thought I was straight. FML
Today, one of my guy friends, who I’m not interested in romantically, asked me out on a date. This is the third time a "friend" has asked me out on a date. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Perhaps he has learned his lesson?

Maybe it's his new rule for himself since the office is really awkward now and he doesn't want another ex there if you guys don't work out. Or maybe he's just not that into you. Either way, sorry to say, but you have your answer m'dear.

Your only course of action here is to get him fired and then ask him out again.

Why would you even want to date someone that's already dated 5 other co workers?! Clearly something's up with that

Evidently he's not that into you, as you think

It kind of sounds like you dodged a bullet

If you know his last 5 relationships were with coworkers at the same job, maybe this would be better for you so u know he's not just sleeping around

Just because a guy texts you a few times that doesn't mean he wants to date you. FYI.

No, but it also doesn't mean that she couldn't just ask him out, especially if they now had some non-work-related conversations.

OP: Tell him you're glad he decided not to date you "'cuz my [OP] rule's not to date losers like you [him]...." :-)

It'd be worse if there's only 6 females total at your job....

He's dated FIVE different coworkers? Honey, you might be dodging a bullet there. Sounds like he's just working his way through them.

Sounds like you dodged a bullet. Dude's gone out with 5 coworkers, that you know of, if you're looking for a stable relationship he doesn't sound like the right guy. If you're just looking for a fling then maybe he's the right guy.
