I can only slightly glance over every time he walks by my aisle to see if he looks like way.

I never thought brown eyes could be so bright. That's just how I feel.

Just over a year ago, I started a new job and met the man of my dreams.

Finally there is someone who is interesting; he’s new to my company, single, and I have a crush.

Dear Meredith, I am 31 and I recently found myself in a "relationship" with a man who is 25. We met at work. Our interaction in the office is minimal, but we see each other daily. We instantly hit it…

It felt like I'd been dragged around, taken advantage of, and used as a backup plan, even though he insisted he "really valued me."

Meredith, I have a friend who has feelings for this guy. He checks off all the boxes on her list, his family loves her, and they also get along super well. The issue is that her guy has never had…

Hi Meredith, I found out a few months ago that my boyfriend of many years got himself into a sticky situation with one of his subordinates. His subordinate at work fell in love with him and thinks that they are…

The thought of being together has faded, but has never left my mind.

Then last week Jane and I had a drink and she told me she wanted to start dating again.

On my last day in that role, he said he wanted me to stay but I knew it was time to move on.

Then I found her number in his phone – with several phone calls.

I can't make my boyfriend understand that we are like a family, they have wives and girlfriends. He wants to start having lunch with women, he says, so that I know what it feels like. He also

Why follow someone around – and even look sad when you think another man got her number – and still not ask her for her number yourself?

The very next day I apologized to him and told him that we should not speak of that again and we should just forget it.

I do not think that there is anything physical going on yet, but the emotional involvement bothers me.

Hi Meredith, I think I am falling for my boss. The work is remote. We live in different countries, thousands of miles away. We talk almost every day via messaging app. Most of the conversations revolve around work; there's no…

I really think we would be great together and can't stop thinking about him.

She insisted that she still loved me, that she wasn't interested in this guy.

Dear Meredith, I have a huge crush on a resident doctor in our hospital. I am a research assistant, and we would occasionally bump into each other in the building. There has been no formal conversation like, "Hi! My name is…

Clearly, this is just a crush on my part, but he is everything I ever imagined/wanted in a partner (not just superficially).

If this were a romantic relationship it would be time for a serious talk about where we stand, but that's not what we have so that seems out of place and even over the line.

Does it mean that a nice, smart, attractive guy is automatically off-limits?

Should I just shut up and go for it? Or continue being professional?

He moved here two years ago for the job and hasn't gotten to know other people.
