Anyone else quietly enjoying a harmless work crush?

This is a fun comment, nothing deep or meaningful here. Just a bit of fun. I’m in a good mood today - which, as a menopausal woman, I no longer take for granted - so please don’t tell me off and ruin it.

I really fancy a man at work! It’s been so long since I’ve found anyone this attractive that I’m actually just sitting back and enjoying it.

And yes, before anyone says it, I know that workplace boundaries work exactly the same whichever sex you are.
I’m not interested in blowing up my life by getting involved in anything murky, and I’m certainly not going to ruin my career by making it obvious.

But I’m going to say it - this really has brightened up the working day.

😁

Just love having a crush and the fantasies that go with it. Better than the real thing IME.

Oh I make a point of always having a crush or two in every job it’s so fun. There is one chap at my work who is just a doll - handsome, funny, kind. Happily married to a lovely wife and i am happily married also! But nice to still enjoy finding people attractive. My grandma in her 90s told me she still had crushes. No harm in it.

I miss those days but used to have a big crush on one of the IT contractor guys who was working with is.

Kept me going until his contract ended and the new system was up and running.

Retired but still have the memories 😁
