Think about it. If a guy you worked with came on to you and you weren&#8217;t interested, all you&#8217;d have to say is, &#8220;I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s a good idea to get involved with a co-worker.&#8221; An easy out. No hurt feelings. End of story. I think that&#8217;s what he&#8217;s doing. If he really wanted you, he would find a way to be with you. So don&#8217;t quit your job. And look for a guy who wants you bad. That would be good.<br \/>\nJenny<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lilly writes&#8230; Dear Jenny, I like this guy I work with and he likes me too.
