Oh God, I kissed a colleague last night

It was at a xmas work do once we both left to go home. He was drunk and I was tipsy, at least. We're both single and liked each other for a long time. He took my number.

Before all this he told me he was leaving the job once he'd worked out his notice in the new year.
He wants to date in between times. But my worry is it's going to be sooooo awkward until he leaves.

Also he was pretty forthright about wanting sex as soon as we meet up, which is a bit too soon for me personally. I don't really want FWB or any of that. Oh jesus what if he just pretends it never happened? Or what if he tells everybody and they take the piss endlessly...

Just wanted to get perspectives

I'm Irish. Have been described as a lot of things but never a fine woman!!! Very old fashioned term but perhaps in vino veritas.
I don't think we can judge these things out of context really, I'm sure you will know yourself OP , if you know each other a long time , you would speak differently than to someone you've just met. Your own judgement will see you right.
Enjoy the bit of romance at Christmas.:)

I was once described as a 'fine horse of a woman' by an elderly Irish man. Apparently it is a massive compliment as it suggests I would be helpful on the farm Xmas Grin

Im not Irish but living in Dublin and “fine woman” is a very Irish expression.



There’s nothing wrong with what he said at all!

He just wants to shag you before he leaves the work place

Grin I'm so glad that you confirmed he's Irish. I was worried for a moment there.

My ex would say something like 'fine woman'. He is from Yorkshire if that makes a difference .

Oh well. At least you now know it was about getting your knickers off. If it hadn't you would have had a text such as let's have a coffee once I've left.

Swerved it there anyway
