Spent a long time writing an email to the could-be OM (while H watched baseball) spilling my guts over how fabulous I think he is in a way thats left open as to what I mean-do I like him or do I just respect him....and I get a one-word reply.

"thanks"

I feel like I am in high school again-its' like liking your best friends' boyfriend with MUCH higher stakes!

I dont think I am cut out for this!

It is not worth the pain that your risking bringing into everybodys life to feel like a school kid again.

I don't understand. You wrote an email to someone who COULD be an OM? Someone who you are attracted to? Has he expressed an interest? Or did you just decide to write to this guy hoping for some interest in return?

Sorry I just didn't get the jist of your post

My post is pretty vague which is pretty much the story of my life recently. He's a coworker, we've been friends all along till a month ago when he most definetly expressed his interest. I am too damn interested in him and too damn scared. He makes moves, I withdraw, he pulls back, I reach out. Like high school crap. I'm with my H 7 1/2yrs, H had EMA 3 yrs ago, we've been working on it and doing ok but this man.......I dont know. I read the posts here it seems way too painful yet I dont think I will be willing to stop this. I was just venting the other night. Usually I just lurk.
