Question - (28 December 2015) 3 Answers - (Newest, 29 December 2015)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I'm 18 years old, female and have a crush on my supervisor who is 32, also a female and married.

I have had several boyfriends over the years and slept with 5 men in total - never had any feeling for any women until I started my new job several months ago.

My supervisor is very attractive and has a great sense of humour -we get on really good and I can talk to her about anything. Lately my feelings keep getting stronger for her- I think about her all the time and we sit opposite each other and find myself just staring in her direction which she has noticed and asks if I'm ok and I just pretend I'm stuck on something so she comes over to help.

The other day she gave all the team a hug as we all chipped in to get her a Christmas present and I felt all weird- in a good way.

When I have days off I miss her and I look through all her photos on Facebook (we are friends on there).

She came in the other morning a bit stressed as her husband had annoyed her and I jokingly suggested she becomes a lesbian and runs away with me and she replied it wasn't a bad idea as we get on really well- am I reading too much in to this or is there a chance she likes me?

What can i do to stop obsessing over her?

Maybe you should find a way to get some more time off, so that you can reset your feelings. I don't think she likes you in that way, but don't take my word on it. No-one on here can give you a certain answer on whether she likes you, because only she knows that answer.

singinbluebird agony auntYoure super young----I didnt date til I was 21 and I still felt incredibly inexperience and unsure at that age (I still do at times!). Its normal to have crushes and gender doesnt matter. Ive felt myself having small crushes on Pizza boys, professors, waiters, a few co-workers, people online....they all meant nothing. They were fleeting and in the moment and very girly. Doesnt mean they were meant for me and Im glad I had them. They were very minor and superficial and quickly faded once they were out of sight.

What Im trying to say is your human. Its okay to like your co-worker but its a crush--thats pretty much it. She is older so she has more experience, she prob knows if she likes men or women and has sexual experiences already. I'm not sure if youre ready to handle all this. Just remember, what your feeling is normal and breathe...relax. And let it go.

Just focus on you and meet new people. Go to school, get a degree, date men and women your age and see how things go. Good luck.

So_Very_Confused agony auntYou are reading too much into it.

You've got a girl crush and that's NORMAL.

it doesn't mean you are gay or even bisexual or bicurious...

it means you have a woman who is older and is having a work career and a home life and you want that. you see her as a mentor and want what she has.... it can't hurt to tell her that and ask her about it. You may find that she goes home and takes off her heels and bra and leaves them on the steps while she screams at the kids to get out of the kitchen so she can make dinner because her hubby is not helping....

she will fall off the pedestal you have her on... it just takes some time.
