these are public forums so i can not explain what kind of situation is here. but i think it would be suffice to say that i dont want to date someone from work, because if it goes all wrong, then it haunts you in the workplace. I had once complimented a woman at work and she said that she was not comfortable with compliments. but that was not all. she had told every woman at work that she had given me that treatment. for the record i said " you look great in these clothes". I have also talked about another thing that had happened with a work colleague. and i have put the whole story here. I think you are getting the wrong message from what i write here. perhaps i should never turn to people here for advice. because one thing is that i can not put down everything on these boards. and secondly, in true desi fashion you start making up assumptions. I want to discover new people. why should i limit my world to work? and for that reason i had asked for an advice. I have a lot of friends. but i am not looking for friends, guys or ladies. but i keep friendships and relationships in separate baskets and that is how it should go. I have seen people who, when interested in a woman, would call her a sister and meet her and start dating her. i have seen that numerous times. and i hate that. I would never call someone a sister for the purpose of coming near her and dating her. i think that is detestable. but people in the desi community do that. and that happens a lot. so much for the morality here. If i am being candid about what i want, what is wrong with that?
Buddy I totally respect your view ... it might not be the same as mine but then again you didn't say anything bad about my views on life so who m i to judge you ... I guess you can go out with friends and see places and that way you can meet new people and if you like someone i'm sure you can be friends with them without making the whole sister scene ... I haven't been to karachi in a very very veryyy long time so can't help you there ... but i think that should give you a start
