Anyone really attracted to their boss, the chemistry thing?

If it's any consolation I don't think you are a troll, lavender1.

norma · 28/12/2003 21:44

I joined in this thread with no troll suspiscions at all. I think it's entirely genuine and cowardly troll police should be ignored.

Lisa78 · 28/12/2003 21:46

But would like to know who troll police is!!!
But don't agree cowardly, I wouldn't have the nerve to put someone is being a troll!

norma · 28/12/2003 21:48

They are cowardly for not using their usual name surely.

libb · 28/12/2003 21:53

I'm certainly not a troll, At least last time I looked. A bit rough in the mornings maybe . . .

Still, I still think people should follow their hearts. I know I did and although its been rough at times it has also been worth it, so go follow your instincts.

Lots of love, Libb xx

lavender1 · 28/12/2003 21:53

Thanks, feel better, how could you make stuff up, never make stuff up on this, what you read is true!

I think it's cowardly to accuse someone after changing your name. I HAVE accused someone of trolldom before but used my usual name. The people were being pretty obvious though.

suzywong · 28/12/2003 22:05

OK now that baby is fed and I can type with 2 hands I suppose I should explain about the troll accusation as I think it was me who started it earlier on in the bar.

Lavendar1, it is clear now that you are certainly not a troll and I apologise if I have made you feel sensitive about opening your heart like this. It is just that your responeses to posts seem to ask the poster to expose details of passion and feelings and that could be seen as being sensationlist. By which I mean, if a man was asking for accounts of these types of experiences it would seem to be prurient and intrusive.
I did not mean to trivialise your dilema in any way.

Also it strikes a chord with me that I do not wish to remember so I guess I am being oversensitive.

suzywong · 28/12/2003 22:08

hasten to add was NOT the trollpolice

Lisa78 · 28/12/2003 22:09

don't think you are being oversensitive Suzywong, think you have hit the nail on the head
And yes, take the point re change of name, but still think it takes some guts to come out with it - but am wuss!

Lisa78 · 28/12/2003 22:09

me either!

lavender1 · 28/12/2003 22:13

suzywong

no hard feelings, people don't have to describe these things but wanted to check if it was real so had to ask others thoughts here, sorry if I got too personal...am okay you know not intrusive (just that I am very open with feelings, not everyone is).

A 'normal' poster will usually join in with a thread or two and then maybe start their own. A troll will usually start a thread immediately, usually trying to get everyone talking about sex and fantasies. This thread was about both which is why suzy was suspicious. Still don't think you are a troll though.

lavender1 · 28/12/2003 22:26

Roscoe,

I have read a lot of the threads and joined in but yes have started a few of own, some involving dh snoring habits and one of astrology, am not into taking about sex and fantasies with strangers at all, very normal person and fit in with situations...questions have been answered and trolls have come out (policething)...Adios

OP posts:
Roscoe · 28/12/2003 22:31

Didn't mean YOU were a troll. I followed your astrology thread too. Didn't post because my starsign had been done already. COME BACK! PLEEEEEASE? Hugs. xxx

suzywong · 28/12/2003 22:34

Oh blimey what did I start?
Would happily discuss c section scars, kids' poo-ey nappies and my crush on Bruce Willis with anyone, troll or not, sorry for crying wolf and upsetting Lavender1

lavender1 · 28/12/2003 22:40

I'm not upset you daft cows (re: father of Bridget Jones when mother is trying to get back after running off with another man...What do you think Geoffrey she says...Sorry love he says...I'm only joking you daft cow!).

Never suspected was a troll, or sex maniac just chatty!

OP posts:
Roscoe · 28/12/2003 22:43

It was probably my fault. When I said I didn't think Lavender was a troll she must have thought I was being sarcastic. I should've explained it better.

Roscoe · 28/12/2003 22:44

THANK GOD!!!

lavender1 · 28/12/2003 22:44

I didn't think sarcastic! Please smile

I went away for a while (chick flick, was sent upstairs) and seemed to have come back to a completely different thread. Can we forget the troll thing? I have to admit that I thought I was being called the troll for a moment but shall let it go now.

I don't think feelings for someone at work (boss or colleague) should be taken without some thought, I couldn't be happier with DP and it was definitely an instant attraction - those flipping big brown eyes will still stop me short! DH was and is a lovely guy, he will make the right person very happy.

Just as it sounds that your DH makes you, Lavender1, my DH was nice but he didn't make my heart flip and the chemistry went a long while ago - it would've been our 3 year wed. anniv. in November so not very long at all. I think I knew on the day that it wasn't going to be the best marriage in the world. Your DH sounds like he could be the one for you but it can be easy to forget the earlier attractions. But if you are still finding him attractive then it can't be all bad!

Does this make sense? I can ramble for Britain sometimes - so if you're ever in Cambridge then be sure to avoid me like the plague!

lavender1 · 29/12/2003 01:04

There has never been any chemistry we just kind of grew on each other.

OP posts:
Chandra · 29/12/2003 02:36

... well before getting married I had some other relationships that started with a very intense attraction, none of these got to anything valuable, actually, 2 yrs ago I saw one of my Xs and yes, the chemistry was still there but... it took me 5 min to remember why I have walked out of that relationship, he's an unworthy person with no regard for his ex-wife and mother of his doughter... the most selfish person in the world... on the other hand my relationship with DH is quite interesting, I felt very attracted by him since the day I met him but at the time we both had just finished long terms relationships and were more concerned on crying in each other shoulder-I spent a couple of months trying to convince him to go back to his X-, we ended as best friends with a great attraction, so 7 years after we are still happily together and have a relationship so much based in mutual trust that when a colleague send him a love letter he rang me to ask how to sort out the situaation, needless to say that I wrote the lovely letter this woman received as an answer... so its ot totally bad to grow on each other -sorry if I have extended myself much, it's just that I had a lapsus of romanticism... sorry

Chandra · 29/12/2003 02:37

I meant... is not totally bad to grow on each other...
