Iv been wanting to write on here about this for a while but always deleted my post because I know how people are going to judge me but I have literally no one to talk to in real life who I would want to know any of this . I feel so confused and annoyed with myself but here goes . Me and my boss !

Been working for the company 8 years I know there has always been a spark between us and it got a little too much about two years ago that I would change my work schedule so that we didn't have to work together . Still all this time I have thought of him but we have had no choice but to work together again these last 8 months and the spark for me just felt stronger than ever . I did have an idea that he felt that same. It's like we just clicked from the moment we met . We have everything I common . He's so friendly and easy to talk too . He's actually more like a women than a man. We have the same sense of humour which is rare because I would say I'm rather odd lol . Anyways obviously I would never ever tell him how I have been feeling but the other night we were working a night shift and he started looking all nervous and said that he has to tell me how he feels and that he has felt it ever since we met . He said he's so confused and started getting upset as this has never happened to him before . The conversation went on for while . He's married with a little girl . I'm engaged . Long term relationships . Both of us ain't happy but we both have a hell of a lot to lose if we were to leave our partners . Him more than me . He would probably lose everything. I said that to him also i said the grass is never greener and that if he did leave his wife how much crap he would get . He turned around and said but then do I really want to be this unhappy all my life or just deal with all that and then be happy with me . He also said I wish we met years ago . And I do too 😢 I would never in a million years do anything whilst us both being in relationships but I'm pretty un happy too . There's a lot of abuse going on with my relationship and his . Then I wonder is it because we are both unhappy we are feeling like this but I don't think it is . Iv been so unfocused and unable to relax since all this has been brought out in to the open . I'm even considering leaving my job. Anyone been though this and know what the best thing is to do ?

OP I understand why you suggested to this man to buy his wife flowers etc. It came from a good place. However, this suggests naivete on your part. As another poster suggested - can you imagine how you'd feel if you found out your partner had bought you flowers as a result of a suggestion from a woman to whom he was attracted?

Making these sorts of suggestions about flowers is fine if you're just mates. The minute he made it apparent he was interested in you you need to state directly to the man that you are not the sort of person who will engage in an inappropriate relationship all the time he is married. That is all you need to do.
