A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I thought I was 100% lesbian am totally happy with that and have been since I was younger - now almost 23! But recently I moved jobs and I now work next to a guy, let's call him bob.

Bob started coming to talk to me and we hit it off as mates from the beginning, we are alike and both have bipolar issues! He is married with a child and as I say I am a lesbian - single. I've never been interested in guys, not seriously - the odd crush for 5 minutes that's about it!

When I went to borrow a pen off bob, I was holding a pad and he tried the pen on the pad but holding my hand underneath the pad then as I pulled my hand away he drew on my fingernail, it was like a charged moment, I shrugged it off and left!

Since then I find myself going to see him but still not thinking I have feelings for him.

He'd had a tattoo last week on his chest and he came and showed me, it was sweet as it was of his childs face - even though he's always said football comes first, rugby comes second then his daughter third and wife fourth with him.

I had a dream about him last night, totally random about him throwing my spare clothes in the water? Weird! But since then I can't stop thinking about him.its weirding me out as to me this isn't right?! I know people question whether they are gay/lesbian but anyone question whether they aren't?

Plus, he's married - what do I do? He is 7 years older than me and one of my mums friends

You back the hell off, is what you do.

He's married. Flirting is off the table. If he flirts with you, do not indulge. In fact don't pay him anymore attention than you would any other friend.

Once you start down this road, you only ever end up one place... pain. Pain and heartbreak. There is no other way for it to end.

This has nothing to do with sexual orientation, but humility and human decency.

Even if you aren't 100% a lesbian, this guy is a jerk. His daughter 3rd in line? Thats not right.
