Mixing Business with pleasure

We have all heard the saying “I don’t mix business with pleasure”, but is that really possible?

Being a busy woman myself, hence me not writing in this blog for a while, I find myself meeting men in the most uncomfortable places. I spend half of my day at work , the other at home focusing on my writing and the rest at the gym. Don’t get me wrong I don’t have a problem meeting men when I do go out but for the most part I find myself meeting people between the hours of 9-5.

I have always been one to never mix business with pleasure but lately, because of my limited time I also have a limited social life. I find myself meeting men at work, usually fellow employees,or at the gym and going to dinner and am stuck in a predicament. DRAMA!

Is dating at the workplace or within the gym a really a good idea? I am beginning to think NOT!

Maybe I am basing my decision on past experiences gone bad, but I am starting to think work is work and play is play and well, you should not merge the two. What prompted me to write this blog is me dating stalker which you can read in my past blog what the outcome was! But now stalker is talking to a fellow friend/ colleague. Can you say Awkward! She really digs him and I most def am not a man blocker but I will let her figure that one out on her own.

But ya I am tired of avoiding a fellow colleague because it did not go right, I got bored, the sex was not good, or we just were not meant for each other. This all makes for unnecessary drama in my life . I have enough drama as it is! (as you can read)

Maybe I am just ranting, but is there an alternative to meeting men at the work place ? The whole going out scene drains me and I feel as if I am a little to old to do the night scene? Is the online scene still too creepy or is it acceptable.. or should I just suck it up and not give a shit ?

WOW I have an idea for another blog!
