Boss

veryangryman

Hi. I think i fancy an older boss of mine from work. Shes 32 and im 25. Fancied her right from the start, The interview i had with her was on their non-uniform day, and there she was in jeans and a low t-shirt, all smiles and boobs bouncing whenever she laughed. Really cute and friendly.

My question is this...How on earth can you approach someone like that as a guy? Im trying to think of a way without it making things awkward.

Guys/Girls suggestions please?! Thanks

Personally I would avoid like the plague. Work romances can be perilous enough, but with your boss? No thankee very much. Difficult dynamic too, with you being the guy as the first move is more expected from you. I dunno if it was me I would do nothing unless she makes a move. She may just be being friendly.

Do you know if she is in a relationship already? Do you go out for work nights much?

veryangryman

Nah shes deffo single. Sure shes been working in the UK, Oz and now here. I dont think her other half would stick around in those circumstances!!

Deffo single. She goes on loadsa nights out with us all

Go for it man, you only live once. The next time you see her (in the canteen at lunch is the best time) walk straight up and tell her you want to rip the knickers of her.
This works every time, enjoy

:eek:

Nice thought though. Now I'm off to ebay to purchase the balls and the cape diem attitude necessary.

I wouldnt mind saying it to her in quieter company mind!!

Just hang out with her and see if she pays you any special attention.
Ask her out for a film or something. She'll know then that you're interested.
Mind, these things get very awkward when they end.

Is it a job that you would be willing to risk to get into her pants?

If so then definitely go for it, as the poster above said, you only live once.

But there is always the chance of her not taking to nicely to it and ending up forcing you out of there.

OP you need to be very careful here not to get yourself into any cases of sexual harrassment here. Dont forget that a work night out is considered an extension of the workplace so the same rules apply.

Not trying to give you the heebee jeebies but just saying to be careful.

veryangryman

Yeah i know. Trying to err on the side of caution, while dropping an occasional hint at the same time.

A balancing act indeed.

Is that your bebo?

If she reads boards, she may know already.

Well, I'll throw in my two cents.. I had a seriously hot manager at work a couple of years back, I was 22 at the time and she was 31, but I thought **** it.. if she wants it I'll give it to her. So Christmas party time comes round, although the signals were there already, I decided to make the move then.. tried to be discreet that night, just flirty flirty, kissed on the sly when no one was around.. but was seen by another member of staff, and then seen leaving with her.. although I would have preffered to not to get caught I did'nt really care.. Here's where it turns sour.. what I did'nt know was that another manager, she was about 26/27 was interested in me.. when she found out, her attitude towards did a u-turn, she made my life in work hell.. Although I never knew she was interested and never gave any signals, she just turned into a complete bitch.. so much so I left the job the following June.. Looking back I have no regrets, but very very happy I learned office relationships are a no-go area, you just cant predict the effect it will have on your relationships with other colleagues. Good luck.

I'd have to think you'd be mad to hit on a boss at work. Wouldn't touch that one with a 40ft barge pole!

Ha thatd be some way of finding out!!

Nail her I say.

If you do start something and it goes bad, will you have to see her every day? - This is why work flings are bad.

Personally i would avoid any kind of intimate realtionship with anyone i worked with.
Its not worth the risk all around.
and doubly so if she is your boss.

Its your call though, it depends if you think its worth your job

kittensoft1984

Sorry I know this will sound like something off Sally Jessy Raphael (I might pop that into the retro forum )
But I was in a similar situation about 3 years ago OP, Went for an interview with alarge MNC as a grad but I had worked every summer in the same industry so I did have experience. Anyway my interview was to consist of my line manager and some chick from HR, the hr girl was nice but tbh I almost creamed myself when I seen my line manager. She was an older scarlett johannson and swedish.. .

We did the interview the HR person left and my boss told me I had the job so she took me to meet my new colleagues, 3 guys and 2 girls all within a couple of years of me. I was 23. My boss was 30. We then went for a coffee as i said she was gorgeous bubbly and a little bit flirty.

A couple of weeks later I started and pretty much a month after that we kissed, We were seeing each other for the guts of a 2 years then i moved to a different company, you should have seen the looks on people faces when i went back arm in arm with her for that years Xmas party! We kept things professional and didnt let things interfere with work. Were getting married next year.

OP take a chance but dont be ott. Just ask her would she like to go out sometime, that was my approach. We were having a coffee and just about to head back to work and inside i just said "fcuk it i'll just ask her" So I asked her she was a bit surprised but said yes and as i said we are very very happy,

Best of luck!
