    Go out with him! :D
  • I met my man through work. We would just chit chat and then we decided to go out on a date. Fast forward a bit and now we live together and he is the love of my life. Go for it!

    I have to ask, what does "taking the Mickey out" mean?

    Non American phrase. My English family uses it.

    And I say go for it as long as it isn't against company rules. I could see a potential conflict of interest there since he is one of your vendors. If you are in position to influence what vendors your company uses....specifically if they have to bid on contracts, as law dictates, I would be super careful. It could cost you your job.

    (P.S. I work for the government so this is drilled into us. HIGHLY UNETHICAL!)

    Well, I can honestly say that if I was in the same position, I wouldn't be able to accept. My work place has a policy against dating other employees or sales reps or vendors... basically, anyone connected with my work place in any way. I accidentally accepted a date with someone who worked for a fencing company. Little did I know, his company installed a fence at one of our properties and I got my warning then. Just curious if the OP checked company policies. Most places aren't as strict as my work place, but I know better than to do that again.

    It's a date, not a marriage proposal. Who knows? You might actually have fun. What have you got to lose? nothing. And if it is a joke, which I seriously doubt, then at least you'll know not to waste any more of your time. Don't over think it, just go and enjoy.

    I say go for it. Why not? You deserve to have one night (at least) to have fun. Go out and have fun see where the date takes you. Good luck.

    Is there a company policy saying you cant? bc that's the only issue I see.. WAIT, unless hes married or your married?
    If the answer to all those questions is NO, then its a no brainer.. GO FOR IT! :) Let yourself have some fun!

    Us women tend to worry wayyy to much and think too far into things!
    Yall obviously have chemistry, go enjoy yourself ma'am!!!

    i was thinking she hasnt responded yet because she's been taken to a meat locker somewhere on the north side of chicago never to be heard from again, but your theory may be right also

    Hey OP, you technically asked him out first! So I hope you went.

    Now tell us; how did it go?

    You are overthinking, just do it and see where it leads. You already have the friends thing going.

    All the po faced 'workplace' replies remind me why I am self-employed.
