How would it affect your view of a friendship with a co-worker if they asked about the chances of being more than friends but you didn’t feel the same?

1. Dimly.

   I would withdraw from that coworker and I’d be damn sure I was never alone with them.

2. I wouldn’t engage in a friendship outside of work. Work friends is fine, but not extending that into the real world

3. I had another female say something along those lines and I just dismissed it. We are still friends and work together fine. It’s easy just to tell them that you don’t like to date people you work with and you just see them as a friend.

4. Id no longer be friends with that individual. I am at work to make my money then go home.

5. If it was a woman I’d just say that’s nice and all but I have a family and I would never cheat

   If it was a guy I’d be like bruh, I’m gay, everyone’s knows I’m gay, I’m very openly a lesbian

   Either way it would probably be awkward for a bit

7. Don’t shit where you eat.

   Just makes shit awkward from then on out.

8. I would no longer be friends with that coworker and would only interact at work where needed in a professional manner.

9. I’d certainly be uncomfortable around them for quite a while. I don’t handle these kinds of situations very well since I’m usually very dense and oblivious, but lucky for me they are rare
