Proof to the contrary, if you are still pining after men you work with.

I've left jobs because of coworkers wanting to be more than coworkers. One job I was at over eight years part of the reason I left was the group seemed to want me and this one guy to be a couple.

Sounds like you're the type that only wants men who are unavailable, and don't like being chased. You are the chaser.

That is anachronistic. These days its more like tide pools left over from a retreating sea by an expanding dating app satellite. The public square is cut off into smaller and smaller subsections while avatars battle it out on dating apps, catfish vs catfish.



So I can see the temptation. It certainly was my inclination not to date coworkers when I was out there. Of course in many situations I was not generally surrounded by much of that anyway,

You need to expand your search parameters.
Everyone tells her to search elsewhere but she doesn't need to be "searching" at all. Nothing is more desparate than putting up dating profiles, looking and flirting on FB, putting ads in the personal sections, advertising on Craigslist, etc and going where guys go just to hopefully meet someone. Nine times out of ten, if they would just stay single long enough to learn to be happy all alone, then they will not need to "look". It will come to them.

There is no risk to improving your own self worth and what you bring to a relationship.

Reoccurring theme with new CD members, they are all dating people from work, or trying to. A couple of years ago they were all dating people from other countries, now they are all dating people from work. Strange how that happens.
