Today, after what I thought was several weeks of flirting with a coworker, I asked her out on a date. She asked if it could be a double date, and I said yes. I brought a friend, she brought her husband. FML

If she wears a wedding ring, then this is absolutely entirely your fault.

She could've just said she was married. Instead of humiliating him.

So it's her fault for getting hit on at work?! She doesn't need to wear a ring to prove she is unavailable. Especially at work. "What I thought was flirting" was probably just her being nice.

She doesn't need to wear a ring, but she's an adult and can use her adult words to say, "Hey I'm married by the way, you know that right?" It's pretty hard to misconstrue 'lets go on a date' with just being friendly if she didn't know he was flirting.

would you like bubble wrap? chill the **** out, flirting is totally okay. if it makes YOU uncomfortable, thats on YOU to say something. (note: flirting is not equal to cat calls or harassment)

Way to blame him. I agree with the other comments that say there is no way show didn't know he was actually asking her out. And I'm sure the flirting was obvious too. Burr rather than be an adult about it and say "hey I don't like you're advances", or "I'm married but thanks for the thought" she chose to basically humiliate him. It's pretty messed up honestly. But hey she was obviously just being nice right

If you understood "double date" meant YOU bring your own date, then you understood she wasn't available as YOUR date. I think you're purposefully leaving a significant piece of the story out.

Where does it say he brought his own date? It reads to me like he brought a friend (presumably male) assuming she was bringing a friend of her own to complete the double date.

I'm genuinely confused how you can go that long flirting without actually asking if she's single. I mean, that really just sounds like you didn't care if she was ACTUALLY single or not because you were flirting with her and thus she MUST be single.

For those of you saying/thinking that the OP is at complete fault that he didn't know that the woman was married, let alone see the ring, think twice. Because MY parents don't wear wedding rings. It's not the rings that represents a marriage, but being actually married that represents the marriage. So it's a good possibility that this woman wasn't even wearing a wedding ring. Second, OP, as much as it sucks for you, maybe you could have started it all off with, "Are you seeing someone?" or "You don't happen to be in a relationship currently, are you?" before asking her out to be sure. Because that for one could have saved a lot of time, TBH, instead of going through the embarrassment. Because I would personally like to be asked just in case if I were to be in the situation - Doesn't matter whether I'm in a relationship or not. I personally like to see that the guys are actually taking extra precautionary measures. And also because that's what I do with guys if I ever end up wanting to go out on a date with them.

All the time you guys were flirting, you never asked her if she was seeing someone?

I feel like we need more information here, because it sounds like a situation where OP just kept persisting at trying to hit on her, and she finally figured this would get him to stop. Some guys will not take no for an answer, unless you can " prove" to their satisfaction that you're already taken.

Yeah sure we don't know everything but we also can't assume he is one of those jerks that don't take no as an answer either. True many people are oblivious to flirting but weeks of it. I don't buy her not knowing he was into her.
