That old saying "don't mix business with pleasure" so holds true! I belong to BNI and think its a wonderful organization. I get quite a bit of business and since I see the same people every week, at least once a week, we get to know one another pretty well. A little too well...
I met a guy through BNI, use his company for all of my needs in that professional category. Well we may or may not have started seeing one another. It was, and is, quite the informal affair - truth be told. Most people in my life...well all of the people in my life but one...don't even know about him. And quite frankly there is no reason to know about him.
After a year and a half of this nice arrangement, apparently he has blurred the lines. He recently decided he wanted to get more involved. **sigh** It goes without saying that if I wanted him to be more involved in my life, we wouldn't just call one another when we were lonely. Needless to say when I put in an order the other day, it was more than a little awkward.
So about that old saying...Don't mix business with pleasure.
*snicker, snicker* :)
