So there is this girl I work with who I haven't seen in a year or so who I used to go to school with. I know that she used to be into me when we were going to school because her friend told me, at the time however I wasn't interested in her. But now since we have been working together it turns out she's a pretty cool chick. The thing is she has a boyfriend now.

What do you guys think, Should I go for it? and if so any tips to get past the b/f

Rather than "going" for it and looking like a jerk by making her break up with her bf, do this...

Act like the coolest guy around her. By this I mean, be everything her BF is NOT and better. That way, she will see you as someone that could easily be a potential BF. Don't fall in the friends zone though. Remember, if her BF is a nice guy, the girl's emotional triggers aren't all being triggered. She is not satisfied fully by all her emotions. That's why, when someone who can satisfy more emotions comes into the picture, she will move on to that person. That's the only reason nice guys lose their gfs so easily.

Hope this helped.

My advice on this score would be not to pursue women who are already in relationships. There are plenty of other women out there--in my opinion it isn't really worth the extra effort and heartache (though, of course, I am female, so I may have a different perspective on this). Additionally, say you do eventually win her and end up in a relationship with her. If it was so easy for you to lure her away from her boyfriend, who's to say that it won't also happen to you in turn?

Good advice from both sides

Thanks
