You have answered the question yourself. You are pretty. And he has told you he finds you pretty on more than one occasion. I'm a 50 year old man and I can tell you that men are not that complicated. If he thinks you're hot, he's into you. Period.

Drop a hint that you have to leave a meeting to meet with your lawyer or something. When he says "Lawyer?" you tell him about your divorce.

It's that simple.


This was genius. I did exactly what you said and we went for drinks this evening!!! You are brilliant! Thank you!


So how did it go?

Yes, please! I've had several of these friendships and that's the beauty of it, there is NOTHING sexual there. We're the female friend wives and girlfriends are happy to know and interact with who remind the guy about taking a vitamin or placing an order for a birthday cake, not thinking about banging them!

How low are your standards, OP? I wouldn't even entertain that idea. Gross.

Can you easily find new employment if things go south?

YES - this!

don't listen to the shriveled crones here who think you should marry someone your own age and that going on a date with a friend means you'll marry them and regret it

please!

This no way! Both of you should not be doing this. He is older....is he in management or your boss? If you start dating will you get any professional advantages? Now days the work place is strictly off limits. It is totally stupid for him to say the things he has said.

Why not have some fun? The only issue is job related and would your job or his be at risk given you are not divorced. If there is any risk I’d be very cautious. His being 20 years older isn’t an issue if your interest isn’t long term. He would be very happy to have a fling with a woman 20 years younger.
