I wrote on these boards a week ago about an attraction that has developed between me and another man in my company.

E1: Thank you! Thank you!


Ladies: Thank you! I am not saying that it doesn't hurt feeling the pain of stopping the flirting, the sexy eyes I give and vice versa

Sassyea, I believe that we (us women on this board) feel if we could save one person from going down the destructive path of A, we have done our job.

I think it would be just fine if you stick around, sassy. Like new_season said, if we can help one woman avoid making our mistakes, it is time well spent on these boards.


I am a little worried about you though. I hear what you are saying now. Believe me, economically times are tough for a lot of us, but it must be very difficult going through what you are going through. Having an A will not fix or help anything. Quite the contrary. And it's not really a very good escape, either.


What I'm worried about is that you may still find yourself attracted to this co-worker. He may make it his personal challenge to have sex with you, and pursue you with a vengence, especially if he's seen any signs from you that make him think you are even half way interested. He's going to pour it on thick. However, I would suggest the next time he tries something flirty, tell him that his behavior is completely inappropriate and that if he does not quit immediately, you will report him to HR. That should make his package shrivel a little bit and dissuade him from further pursuit.


Good luck! Work on lovin that prince of yours. You are a lucky girl. :-)
