 Well, to me, it is off-the-wall, I mean, they could be satanists or 
something equally sinister for all I know. Ok, that's taking it a touch too 
far, I know, but hey...

   Yeah, well good for you that you didn't. That's peer-pressure for you, 
and that was some time ago. It's even worse now with all kinds of 
'life-experiences'. Look at the young drinking culture here. They have no 
idea what they're doing to themselves. I do.

      No, not at all. Yeah, I've met them too - lots. I see them pushing 

the time, infants in tow.

 Is she married? Do you get on with her ok? Heck man, for the hell of it, 
just ask her if she would like to go out for a drink sometime. Gofrit.

Well, it came down to the fact that the guy who said that to me was a 
total moron. ;-)

Heh. She's not married. AFAIK she doesn't have anybody yet. (Not that 
I'd know any different if she did.) She has a reputation for being very 
enthusiastic about blokes, but there never seems to be any substance to 
it. I think it's just bored girls' office humour. I get on kind of OK 
with her, but... she's a tad strange.

I think I did once suggest we meet up outside work sometime. She seemed 
excruciatingly embarressed, and said no. Oh well!

 Hey, that's nice that you get on with her, she does sound nice like you 
say. Don't lose touch.

  As for wiccan, that's ok, they're just white witches who are into nature 
more than anything else I think.

   Let the bad boy out! :) Next time the printer doesn't work, just pick it 
up and lob it to the floor. That'll get someones attention. Heh...

Yeah, she's a good girl. (Getting married later this year... She's only 25.)

Yes. Probably our accountant, when the repair bill comes in. o_O

     Define 'strange'. Everyone I know has some quirk or whatever. It's what 
makes us unique and 'individuals'.

 OMG! That was then, this is now! Ask her again!! It's only for a drink, 
just ask her, if she says yes, then bingo, you're dating a woman even if 
it's just once. If she says no, so what?

Doesn't matter, man!  All you need is love! :)

It happened about the same to me and, though love is now gone and we 
parted ways, my daughter is the best thing in my life.  I got a job 
*after* having a child and I've been progressing further ever since, 
with a house of my own, gadgets and much fun with her.  You can't stop 
life from suddenly getting in the way of your big plans.  Everything 
just falls into place.

Congratulations!  You'll get to love the little brat in time and will 
see a bright change operating on your son... :D

Little secret for you:  *all* women are a tad strange.
