FTFY. There has been nowhere - other than the drunken little bit that caused the "owl attack" - that he has EVER suggested he had unresolved feelings for Ms. Whitaker.

Yes, Jim doesn't have that baggage, but imagine what happens if his ex suddenly blows into his life and tries to reconcile or something? There goes the therapy bill.

It was ridic unprofessional of him to even ask her out.

Many a successful relationship has come out of business arrangements.  I don't see it as unprofessional as much as older man interested in a beautiful, responsible younger woman with common business interests.

LeeC:
for all we know he just wants to be friends and pick her brain about owning a small business.  See how his experience has differed and perhaps learn a new way to become more efficient at something that he had not thought of before.

Perhaps, but they just began their business relationship.  I don't think it's particularly appropriate to be asking out a new business partner (of sorts) quite THAT soon.

Well, think of it this way.  It's harder to convert a friendship to a romantic relationship successfully if it's been a relationship for a long time.  I imagine the same would apply here.  Better to ask now while it's early and establish the boundaries than wait till months or years down the road when Dora may be less willing to upset the apple cart.
