My friends had told me to make a grand gesture and I wanted to, but then I decided not to in the moment.

This fear ratcheted up recently when I met someone at my new job who really draws my attention.

I met this man at work in 2015. I saw him at the reception area. I asked around but no one seemed to know who he was. Turned out, he was located off-site at a satellite location, which I found…

Hi Meredith, About six months ago, I met a woman at work who was absolutely gorgeous. As a professional person, I didn't pursue it, but we got to know each other because we had reason to work together. We had…

Am I being paranoid, or does it sound suspicious?

I didn't realize how much until I caught myself totally daydreaming about her on a Saturday.

Four years ago, I developed a crush on a coworker, "Cal." Cal and I were in the same department and started a friendship. Our coworkers were all around the same age, so we would all go out every once in…

We started meeting up after work for drinks and texting, but then I realized I was the one initiating the majority of our conversations.

I can't tell if she is attracted to me and is just very subdued about showing it, or if she just thinks of me as a friend.

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.
