It depends what sort of people you two are.

If you lead with your emotions and it goes bad then it will have not been worth it. But if you are rational intelligent people and it doesn't go well then you will both still be adults.

Here is a trite platitude: life is too short, go for it.

No harm in going out for dinner & drinks to see if there's a possible match or future.

But if it's for a casual hit and run f**k, bad idea.



I don't think it would, at least that would not be my intentions. I do not do that kind of stuff.

My wife has taken me to far too many movies on this topic, where two co-workers go out, then some awkward moments happen, some hilarious shenanigans ensue, then in the end everyone falls in love and lives happily ever after for me not to endorse this idea 100%.

I had a dream. It was an incredible dream. When I awoke, I had a huge mess to clean up.

And surprisingly, every single one of those movies starred Jennifer Aniston playing the same character!

The worst possible scenario: you both work in the same department, it goes bad and you have a terrible breakup, later she gets promoted and decides whom to downsize.

Bad idea if you don't want to. The only way it makes sense is if you like the girl more than the job if push comes to shove.

Sometimes you must be open to opportunity anywhere. It is neither a good idea or a bad idea, it is existence unfolding and you participating in it. Enjoy yourself. If you are attracted then go with the flow.
