I only started the job about four weeks ago and got invited out last night with a few of them. Went along and had one or two too many and ended up kissing one of the guys I work with. To make matters worse I was so embarrassed about I just left then without saying bye to any of them.
I do have a bit of a crush on him but can't imagine facing him or any of them that were there again!

I've got form for this Blush On a work night out at the last place I worked, snogged a manager from a different department - very uncomfortable conversation was had the following Monday when he asked me out and I had to confess I didn't actually fancy him, and I had had too much to drink.

Also happened at the current place I work, with a bloke I did fancy. We're getting married this year Grin

Yay that he's asked you out!!! Fantastic! Now, where did I put my hat.....

UPDATE: Yesterday was fine,no one really mentioned it apart from the off nudge nudge wink wink and so on.
I spent the majority of the day trying to hide from him because I just went red anytime I seen him.
He caught me at the end of the day and asked me to go for a drink with him the next time DS is in his dad's!!
Oooh I'm feeling a tad giddy about it!

Be safe in the knowledge that one or more of those other ladies has probably done it too!

GILES, "Tim's house", mortifying ! 😂😂😂
Oh, that really made me laugh.
Did you come across Tim again ?

The story about Tim is soooo funny.

Agree with previous posters re styling it out

I kissed a colleague on a night out a few years ago- i was mortified and thought I'd ruined a good friendship.

Two and a half years later we're married and expecting DC1. It's a slippery slope OP Grin

Did this almost 20 (eek!) years ago - now married with 3 DS.
-You're both single
-He's not the office weirdo
-Not much competition from the sounds of things
The circumstances could be a lot worse!

Hahahah he's definitely not the office weirdo, in actual fact he's kind of the token office crush for everyone,luckily for me most of the other women are a decade or two older than him or I'm sure he never would have blinked twice at me!

You have nothing to be embarrassed about.

I met DH at an office party. There's always someone snogging someone at parties when alcohol is involved.,,maybe it will lead somewhere 💍👰🏽🕺🏼💏👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🎩

Could be worse.

You could have snogged him in front of his mum. And your mum.

Not that anyone I know did that of course BlushBlushBlush

still cringing 15 years later

You can TOTALLY style this one out (unless you've snogged the office weirdo). I've done it twice (in different companies). Rock up on Monday, enjoy the attention, hold your hands up and own it.

Aw I kind of feel bad for him. He kisses you and then you ran away without saying a word. He's probably wondering what he did wrong.

Also been there, done that. Worst of all I was working for a major contractor and he was one of our subbies (and this night was one of the reasons I always drank half pints on our rounds and not wine like I did that night). Lots of us in our twenties/ thirties and we used to have nights out quite regularly (but usually without the snogging Wink).

Style it out on the Monday, own the fact it happened with a little laugh, and try not to react (I.e blush beetroot red/ run off in embarrassment/ call in sick) otherwise it'll be brought up again and again without fail (of your colleagues are anything like mine were).

You went out got pissed and snogged the face of a bloke you work with.
Its not the end of the freeeekin world, but. It could be the start of something.

Happend to me. I styled it out by strutting in Monday morning and calling out ' 'Morning stud' before anyone else could say anything. I was so brazen I think they thought it was pointless trying to make me feel uncomfortable Grin

Oh and Lambzig you got off lightly. We ended up the subject of a spoof article in the company magazine. I'm still curling my toes thinking about it.
