Would you ask him out?

I've been single for a number of years now and have been happy with it just being me and my 2 DC. However I attend somewhere where I have met someone, he's nice and as far as I know he's single too. Now I really want to ask him out, but he's part of the organisation of where I attend so I don't know if there any kind of rules around this and if he says no I don't think I could go back. What can I do? Do I just go for it and ask him out or do I leave it and see if he asks me?

What’s the organisation and is he a worker there.is it nhs,LA or charity
If you know him because he’s employed and you attend as a participant I’d say no
You need to do a big more digging be sure he’s single,straight
However at xmas it’s easy to ask those social questions, eg xmas plans,what did he do,what did he buy his partner

It's church, he's a curate and I volunteer there as well as attend. Our children's worker goes out with someone from the congregation ( who is also a volunteer) I really don't want to have to leave church if it all goes horribly wrong, but at the same time this is the first time in years that I've felt anything. I'll do more digging first.

I’d imagine as it’s social contact In a church context I’d think it’s ok to date
It’s not a profession relationship with code of practice
Do a big of digging check he’s single, and straight

Thanks, yep definitely more digging to do. I know he's single but I don't know if he's straight...probably best to find that out first.

I am in a similar situation. I have been single ages and really like so someone. I am just scared of the situation if he says no...
