Obviously?
Misery loves company, obviously. 
How about 'not interested'?
Or how about 'able to use that gray thing between his ears for more than just keeping the ears apart'?

Probably a golfer. Figuring out a new grip that will fix his slice. Most golfers gave up sex for the game.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Or very smart.
Starting something at work is not a very good idea. How are the chances that she is still so freindly when it ends? Have you ever seen what women like to do to get revenge? Not being interested in the first place and telling her may just be a shortcut to the same results.
If you want to keep your job, it may be better to stay clear of all that and play the idiot who does not get it. It's what I would do.

Most men don't. Most are also capable of logic and acting on it. Until they their little buddy do all the thinking.

Then you were lucky. Obviously the best result for all, but something I never would bet my rear parts on.

You had one of the happy endings. These days, what with #MeToo and consequent HR policies of "shoot first, and ask questions later", I would be extremely careful before starting any office romance.

Despite my previous answer and your sarcastic comment, I have to say I actually agree with you, specially if you are going to work together (IMO working in the same company but different jobs/departments, could still work).

Sometimes a guy bets everything on his lucky number and gets away with it. Most of the time that does not happen. Unromantic little me always lets others try their luck and then pays attention to how things turn out.

Just oblivious.
Like I was, while a coworker was apparently dropping hints left and right for over a year before she decided to stop with the hinting and just come right out and say she wanted me.
