Question - (8 August 2012) 3 Answers - (Newest, 12 August 2012)
A female Philippines age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I think I am in love, but I am unsure and would like some advice.

A guy at work, who I only talk to on the phone because he is outstationed, asked me over the phone if I was going to be in the office the following day. I replied that I would be in the office all day if he called. We were discussing work. The next day he surprised me and asked people in my office where I sat and introduced himself. The first time I saw him, I was shocked and I liked him instantly. He is definitely my type and he sat down and we casually talked. He left and peeked over my cubicle, but I caught him late.

When we had a meeting recently, we talked and both of us were engaged in conversation and laughed. I felt comfortable. We talked standing up until we seated. He sat next to me first, then scooted away from me when the boss arrived. During the meeting, he would always look in my direction and when I looked at him, he would either look away or have a serious face. When I turned the light off after the meeting, I felt him close to me but he did not touch. I asked him to meet one of my co-worker and people at work looked at us with blank looks, even my friends. The boss looked at us when we walked away talking.

After the meeting,he sent an email to me as a follow-up to our meeting. Just 2 days after seeing each other. It was work related and strictly business.

When he left, his face got red and we shook hands and said good-bye. He looked frustrated. I felt a weird feeling like I did not want him to leave. Now, I have been thinking about him. I see him as my husband or someone I want to be with for a long time. I felt like there is a reason we met the way we did.

He does not have a ring on his finger, so I am unsure if he is married.

Is this love or lust? I have so much feelings for him and I miss him.

Any advice or am I infatuated?

Atsweet1 agony auntWell if they are married and or involved that's probably why they have ring on so that slims down your chances. In my case I am now scoping out a married person I ask them if they was married yes but I still am persuaded that in the future there's a chance until I find out if they are truly happy married if they are I don't want to be a homewrecker but I might will if I really see opportunity and I do it's a very small possibility also small it's a invicible speck I don't like rejection but in life prepare for it in this case they have rings on I suggest prepare for worst hope for best if it don't work find a person unattached Once I got involved with someone single and I was married I didn't have ring and was never if ever happily married and I greatly hurt someone emotionally cause I didn't leave my husband for them I wish I did I should have and they hate me but I guess if they put thereselves in my shoes they would have walked different timing was off for us I suppose. so if that's the case in your situation timing may be off for you two to get involved it's alot of fish in the see though don't be discouraged flirt with them communicate find out what's going on if you can have a chance in my case that's what I plan to do if so great if not a chancethe other person is the best choice

Love of lust I don't think the label really matters at this point. But either way it sounds wonderful and I would advice you to go 100% forward and take a chance.
