Charm is deceitful, and beauty is fleeting. Physical pleasure is only temporary, but the consequences of a bad relationship will endure through time, and sometimes ruin lives for good.
Find a way to contact her through business and do a little fishing.....don't coward up...go for it. DD
You cannot be in love just from looking at someone and exchanging a few words. That is called lust. Sometimes lust can turn into love. I wouldn't press the issue. If you get the opportunity to talk to the neice again, go for it. But don't ask the client for her number (unless you are REALLY good friends with the client and she likes you) and don't look her up on facebook. IMO that would likely just scare her off.
dont fish off the company pier dude. But, the good news is you can at least have some interaction with her on a professional basis and figure out if you want to take that risk. Find a way to work with her again but only on a professional basis. Don't let this effect your business and don't make it awkward. Tread lightly.
Why do I already have the feeling that you've already stared at her enough times to make things uncomfortable during that dinner?
you got played so hard by your 'important customer' who the F brings their attractive anything to a business dinner
You have a hand. You probably have lotion. A sock as well. Place her in your spank bank, reach for it when needed. Wash the sock.
Oh good, a nice morning thread for me to take a big cynical **** on. So let me ask you this. What is more important? Your job potentially being put at risk... or a chance at some mid-level poonage that will probably end in either humiliating rejection or her cheating on you 4-6 months down the road with some Ed Hardy poster boy the very night you spent your last month's paycheck on some stupid piece of jewelry. There is only one thing that needs to be said in this thread that has (amazingly) yet to be said. Spoiler
This + the ToyCen restaurant advice makes me think you are the worst advice giver EVER. To OP: DO NOT by any means overstep professional boundaries. If you mess it up, youll be out of a job and your company out of its biggest client. You can already scratch this woman off your list due to the fact she came TO the meeting and that shes related to a client. If you met this broad at the bar and found out she was who she is...thats different. But you didnt, and your friend did....Thats what we like to call being OUT WHATABURGERED
