When do feelings go

I'm married with dc and my heart aches for my boss.

He helped me through a difficult event at work and I don't know what happened but I just became addicted. I see him regularly and he's always kind.

My heart aches that he is in a committed relationship and I am married. Does this feeling go and when?

I'm in a similar position to you op and other person encourages it but we never cross a line. Unless the closeness of the relationship, flirting is crossing a line? Who knows. It's been going on for years and we both seem to enjoy it and each others company!

@gost oh god, years? I don't know why but I get really nervous when I'm around him. I stutter. Try and show I'm not bothered and generally become a bit aggressive.

There was a man I knew through my kids - lovely lovely guy. He always stopped to chat and was so nice to my kids and me. So fantasy time - day dreamed about him a lot! Then I saw him be the same with another mum, and another - he was just a lovely guy with everyone, not just me! I gave the fantasy up then 😒.

I think that's mainly true if it stays lust and doesn't go further. Then it's truly shit.

He makes me feel good about myself. That is his job. He thanks me for my work etc. after difficult years with young dc at home, that can crack into a marriage. I know I need to focus on my husband and children.
