well im 33 and met a lady at my work who is 38 she has 2 teens but that doesnt bother me, we have known each other for a time but really talked just the other day. I had no idea that we had so much in common. I mean our religious background is the same our political persuasion is about exactly the same. I am interested in pursuing her but dont know just exactly how. I dont know if she is dating anyone. dont know if she would be intrested in dating. my biggest obstacle is well, the workplace thing you know. I dont want that whole sex harrasement thing when i just wanna ask someone out. its a little confusing. I mean we emailed each other twice now and I am not sure if it means she only wants a pal or a date. im trying to be delicate and sensitive but not at the price at looking unconfident and desperate, what you think

I would email her and ask her if shed like to go have coffee sometime. Dont set an exact date or anything, just say....Would you like to go have coffee sometime? Then she what she says, thatll give you an idea if shes interested or if shes single.
If she says yea, that would be great, wait a day or so, then ask her again and have a day in mind or a time.

Workplace romances are difficult. However if you both get along and like each other I'd start out as friends. It's pretty simple, go out to a dinner and a movie together and if you both like each other, then it will progress.
The best way to find out if she is interested or single is to ask her. I'd suggest emailing her at a home email address not a work email because then it's a private conversation i.e. not work related.
Alternatively just ask her out and chat to her over drinks after work (somewhere none of the other work people go, or will see you, that way you don't have to be worried or embarrassed). Then you can bring it up then and there. Be honest, we like that!
Good Luck

It appears you do not know this lady as well as you think you do, yes you have common interests, but you know nothing personal. so either you ask, and go from there, Or you make the decision she is just a nice co-worker. You have to make the decision, as you have to live with the consequences. Best of luck

it kinda sounds to me that she does like you but if she has a history of charging sexual harrassment or your company has a strict policy on interoffice dating then just be a friend and leave it alone. maybe you can start by taking to her lunch or something and take it from there. the only way to find out is to ask. hope this helps good luck!!!

wow idk u have two problems: work and kids( im not saying the kids are bad just difficult) WORK: ok try talking more and flirting a little, if she flirts back it may b worth pursuing, if not back away slowly KIDS:the problem is if you get too close and they start to really like you and then you and their mom break up there could be problems idk if you really feel that she is something really great for you then i say go for it

Ask her to join you for a drink (doesn't have to be alcohol it can be a soda) or ask her to join you for a bite to eat good luck
