Only according to Pat Benatar. I love that song but its only a battlefield if you get involved with it. Otherwise it's a field of landmines that you're just trying to avoid. :p

Well first rule is don't take the relationship into the workplace.
That age difference is uhm.. well... yeah.. Potential minefield..
In a text when you're talking in the early hours ask her if she likes you, simple as.

I think you are well on the way mate.
As always though...the question for us blokes is: Is she falling in love?
As mentioned above..
Big age difference and a co-worker....
Best of luck though.
Hope it works out for you!

Well, if you're not sure how she feels and I think I know who it is you're referring to....just let her be the one that moves things along so that you don't make things awkward.
I would agree though that if you can get her on the blade, you'll give her a thrill she won't forget in a hurry, they are amazig bikes to be pillion on (except the new ones).
Just don't scare the carp out of her...lol
Hovis..... You know what I've said!
Good luck x

Ouch, once burnt I see. I know where you are coming from...
Just tell her Hovis! If she likes you then you win, if she doesn't then you aren't wasting anymore time thinking about her.

Hovis....doesn't know what to say?:o
WOW, thats a first.:colors:
But then I don't know what to say....er let her do all the moving, then you'll know for sure.
Its not love, just infatuation. Invite her out for a drink, see how it goes. It will be less of a shock than you think if it doesnt go to plan.
If that fails, ask her out for a drink and slip a pill in her bacardi breezer.

your cynicism makes me love you more :makelurve:
just ask her out and see how it goes. No point worrying about what might happen, lifes too short

+1. Good advice! Don't worry about the age gap. Just ask her out and relax Hovis!:cool:

What does the age difference matter? When I met Mrs Wyrdness, she was 22 and I was 35. What was important was that we really got on well and liked each other.

my girlfriend came up with a decent solution for this type of problem a while back for her brother and it worked. It goes like this - during conversation you drop in a light hearted manner something like - oh i had a dream last night night that we were going out with each other - her initial reaction should tell you what you need to know without losing face just in case you have read it all wrong = but from what you said it dont seem likely

Lol :D that would be so cheesy leesh And no age doesn't really matter much.. it's not like it's a 75 year old with a 30 year old model sort of thing.

Wait till lunchtime, ask her if she wants coffee or something and do it when you're having said coffee..

You sound like a stalker.
And she sounds deranged.
You sound like a stalker..i am
And she sounds deranged.
maybe
Have you flashed her your love handle yet
just read Hovis... this is a cunning plan....
1. Remember her mum's birthday.
Any bloke can manage not to forget his girlfriend's birthday, but if you show up with flowers for her mum, she's yours.
2. Make stuff look difficult.
If she asks for your help opening a jar because she's already turned her whole body red trying to get it to budge, at least make it look like it's a little challenging when you pop it open in two seconds flat after she just struggled with it for 10 minutes, she may not appreciate your macho grin.
3. Always compare favourably.
The time will come when you will watch a film together and she will turn to you and say, "I think Halle Berry is so pretty ... don't you?" This is a trick! There is but one proper response, and it goes like this: "She's okay, but you blow her away." See? I even made it rhyme so it'd be easy to remember.
4. Act disgusted.
When you hear that a rich old man has left his wife for an young model, under no circumstances should the phrase "Nice one!" leave your mouth in her presence. Feigned horror and " cradle snatching" sentiments are your best options.
5. Wash your stinky feet.
Don't wait for her to turn green.
6. Put down the remote.
If you flip channels while she's discussing her deep feelings, this is a dead giveaway that you're not listening. No good can come of this. It's better to just nod a lot, occasionally say "I completely agree with you," and wait for her to exhaust herself.
7. Using the phone doesn't make you a loser.
When you're out with your mates and it becomes clear that she shouldn't wait up for you, suck up your pride, endure the "ball and chain" remarks, and remember that the guys' legs are considerably less smooth when wrapped around you than your girlfriend's. Call her.
8. Go hairless.
Some areas are more beautiful when they're bald. These include your back, nose, ears.
9. Ease up on the figures.
If you're dating a woman and you both don't mind splitting restaurant bills, fine. But if you break out a calculator to make sure it's exactly equal, try to determine who ate what portion of what, or agree to "lend" her money to pay the tip, do not pass go: Go directly to No-Girlfriend Land.
10. If you love her, tell her.
Again and again. Don't assume that you can just tell her once and she'll believe it's true until you tell her otherwise. There are two things a woman never gets sick of hearing: "I love you" and "Your butt looks amazing." Sprinkle both into your conversations liberally.
if it works... I'll have a bottle of whiskey please.
Rohypnol - helping ugly men get laid since 1975
Difficult one Hovis, but for me this is easy as it breaks rule 1.
"Never at work"
Rule 2 is "never touch another mans Rhubarb"
They are my only rules so it does leave a lot of scope :o
but in all seriousness seeking relationships at work can be fraut with danger, not only emotional ones but letigous ones as well so be careful dude and good luck.

I would play it a bit slower mate , have a feeling you are gonna get burned on this one . Not saying "Dont go for it" , just test the water a bit more , lots of these signs can be misread . Had my paws burned more times than I can remember mate , then again that testing water is handy for putting out the singe .

Ha ha! A guy who took me out did this! And he started the night by trying so hard to impress, then ended it with almost using a calculator! yep I walked away pretty quickly.
Mr Lou and I met a work, he was 38 and I was 30. I had a lot of misgivings about wondering if it would work and if it didn't having to continue at work. But 10 years on we're happier than ever!
BUT, do take it slowly, it took us a while to finally get it together.

I would agree though that if you can get her on her back, you'll give her a thrill she won't forget in a hurry
;)
On the serious side, that age difference is nothing at the moment, you are both adults. The issue might come in ten years when your taking a full day to get over a hangover and she still wants to go clubbing. ;)
Not getting involved with somebody at work is nonsense too. The last company I worked for had only 52 employees and included two married couples who had worked there for years and met there. My sister and brother in law met at work and have been married for 10 years and have two beautiful kids. They worked in positions that would cause conflict of interest, so they it kept it quiet until they decided it was serious enough that it was worth one of them looking for another job in order for them to stay together. Now what a tragedy if they had never found each other, were both still single, unhappy or divorced and the kids had never been born, all because they decided not to get involved due to work?
