For all the lads out there, note that every single one of this guy's problems can be boiled down to him refusing to say clearly and directly what he wants. The girl will not know your feelings unless you tell her directly and without any ambiguity.
Also note, never ask out a coworker in America in a professional setting. It's fine if you're working some shit job in your teens or early 20s, but once you've finished college and embarked on a career, absolutely 100% do not put your livelihood at risk because you have a cute coworker. It is just not worth it.

@LysandersTreason Do you speak from experience or from people close to you? Just curious, not cynical. There are rules against dating someone from your department and stuff for a reason, but with what you said there's something more? Also what about like casual sex and stuff (Normally evolves to dating so I guess avoid it too?)?

@LysandersTreason are u talking about those new rules at work about not hugging co-workers or not keeping eye-contact for more than 5 seconds with opposite sex co-worker? I've only heard about those, but not sure how deep they go.

It's not precisely new, but yes basically the goal is to protect yourself from any possible claim of sexual harassment. Never be alone with a female coworker. Never be alone with a student, if you're a teacher. Never make jokes that could ever possibly have any innuendo.
I am speaking from experience, both my own, people that I've read about in the media, other coworkers, etc.
It only takes an allegation, true or not, to end your career. And even if you've followed all the 'rules' precisely about never putting yourself in that kind of situation, it can still happen. It happened to me. But even something a stupid as a blonde joke can get you fired these days.
The goal is to make sure nothing you say or do could be open to any possible interpretation by others. Leave your personal life at home, don't mix it with work, etc. It's really fucking sad that it's come to that, but look, if you've graduated from college and are working your first professional career for, say, 5 years.. and then allegation of sexual harassment falls on your head, you will be immediately fired. And then what? You're totally fucked. You can't use that job as a reference. You can't use that job for professional contacts. When they contact your old job, it will become known that you are not eligible to be hired back -- and some HR people are going to spill the beans about why (even if that's not legal). And if not HR, they may contact coworkers or supervisors who aren't under those obligations.
Before you come back with "Well I dated a coworker and it was just fine" or whatever, I understand that it can be done, that people do it, and that many people don't have these issues. But some do. It's a significant portion. And if you're accused, *no one* is going to believe you when you say you're innocent, especially in today's political atmosphere. It's especially important if you're in certain fields, like education. One allegation, no matter how untrue, would make that entire degree worthless -- you'd never work in a school again.
If you really want to date someone, put in your two weeks notice and then ask them out.

When they said love finds a way I immediately thought of an old meme.

@LysandersTreason
He's been pretty clear, even with Kazumiya, that he's not going to date students. Now, granted, that leaves the door open for "in 3 years I won't be a student anymore." Unfortunately that doesn't matter in the here and now and making plans years in advanced with something as fickle as teenage girls is silly as fuck and in the mean time they'll still students he'll have nothing to do with. And it was only brought up tangentially by the big tittied girl as a joke that she'd drop it as being the closest this has come to be brought up.
The girls, however, just ignore this and keep going on about if they love him. Despite him telling them that doesn't matter because he doesn't have romantic relationships with students. Granted, the guy is basically a introvert teenage girl crush magnet due to how he operates and does so unintentionally and he has plenty of flaws, but... This "he doesn't give them clear answers" stuff like you and his drinking buddy gives is unfounded. He has given a proper response - "I won't date or have romantic relationships with students" is pretty god damn clear. The girls simply didn't acknowledge it, like it or just ignored it. He's a screw-up, but this is one area where he wasn't the party at fault.
