    Well done. I know how difficult it is to do something like this. It is so much better that you no longer work together.

    Fingers crossed he says yes.

    At last well done! What did you say? I hope it was clear your intentions and not just a friends message!

    We've been messaging back and forth, but I haven't asked - I know, I'm a wuss!
    I must have a one track mind but my initial reading of this posting was..

    "We've been massaging back and forth.." :j
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    He replied. He said he's definitely up for coffee, just to let him know when I'm around, but not this week as he's very busy. I'd asked if he wanted to get a coffee when I was around his way...hence to let him know. I'm not sure if this week includes this weekend?

    Now I'm worried it'll be weird because we've only known each other in work and not outside. Also not sure if I might be in the friendzone and how I might avoid/get out of it?
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending

    Don't overthink things, when you do meet up, you'll know by the end of the "date" whether it is a catch-up as friends, or potentially something more. If you are in the friends zone, there is no way of changing it.
