Hang on a second... my girlfriend recently got asked out by a colleague...(it wasn't you was it..? ).. and she is genuinely busy with shift work for a month before she has free time (she works bizarre hours)... she has every intention of going on a date with this guy but seriously has no room other the coming weeks...he seems happy to wait...

you don't mind your girlfriend going out with other blokes?

I think NSK may be a woman, referring to a female friend, not a bloke referring to his partner

I did think that but the term 'my girlfriend' threw me as it was singular which gave the impression it was their other half (really REALLY hate the phrase 'partner') and all one word... rather than 'one of my girl friends'....

but i am just a typical bloke.

wait til the xmas night out, might get your card stamped there once shes had a drink or 12

While I suspect this is firmly tongue in cheek I think I'll say this just for the sake of clarity.

DON'T DO THIS, DON'T BE THAT GUY, THAT'S JUST WRONG ON SO MANY DIFFERENT LEVELS!

Incidentally, I'm not entirely sure I'd date someone I worked with, I personally just feel it's a bad idea, if things go wrong then it can cause all sorts of awkward stuff and well, no one wants or needs that!

To the OP: Have to agree with the general consensus that her response is more than likely a no, with a gentle let down. But hey; you had the balls to ask her in the first place! You get waaaay more man-points and respect for that than you would have if you'd just followed her round like a puppy for a few months.
