[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure why people think this is a male friend.

OP calls it a date
OP says she's missing the infatuation phase

Sounds like OP wants to bang it out with some hot new dude. [/quote]

Yes there is a distinct different between grabbing a coffee with an existing friend (or colleague) and going out for coffee with a new person you met and had chemistry with.

Though admittedly there is a gray area here. Could be a new colleague with whom there is chemistry but also it would not be weird to go get coffee with him, and OP is just feeling guilty because even though it's not a date at all, some part of her wishes it were, and thus the question.

I have experienced this. There is someone in my life I have the opportunity to see with some regularity, but I can also not see him if I so choose. When I see him, it's never a date, it's just a circumstance of being the same place at the same time. But there is absolutely chemistry with him, at least on my end, and sometimes I find myself gut checking myself when I arrange my life... if I arrange things so I happen to see this person a big more often, how bad is that? Assuming nothing ever actually happens with him beyond casual conversation. My answer to this question varies by the day. Sometimes I think this is the most innocent thing and it hurts no one. Otherwise I wonder if I'm trying to have an emotional affair.
