I've just been offered a position with a new company, and I thought I would be happy - that after all the interviews and no response hassle, that I should be soooo happy to have been offered just what I was looking for.

But when I came home, there was this unbelievable sadness and horror. Because I've been offered a new full time job, so there will be no time for me to do contract work with my old boss, who I love dearly. I Actually want know if I'm falling for him as a person or just an image of him. He makes me feel like I can be somebody and believes in my work and my dreams, but I'm thinking it's just because he's my boss.

Maybe I just want to believe that I'm falling for an image because he's what I want in a significant other but he's engaged to be married very soon. I don't want to lose him because he's one of my only friends I can talk to about anything, he listens and knows just what to say.

I hate this. Because I know this doesnt make to much sense reading it and it might just sound like a story but I knew I never wanted to be in this situation wondering if I should tell him my true feelings. I dont want to be the other woman or a home wrecker. I love that he's found someone to make him happy but at the same time I wish we met sooner maybe it could have been me.

I've found a new job and don't need the old office. BUT I do! I need him.

That's the problem. I don't care about this new job. It pays better it'll help me reach my dreams and goals so much faster. But I've realized I'm in love with my boss, and have been for a long time, The thought of giving him up for good, never having time to see him rips at my chest and I just want to burst out crying.

Anyways if you read this send your opinions, I just really needed to get this out and needed someone to talk to, normally it would have been him or my best friend but I feel my best friend cant understand and I just shouldn't mention this to him...

He is only just preparing to be married and he has shown no romantic interest in you.I would give up now before you fall for him more and end up interfering with the relationship between him and his fiance. Move to your new office, make friends and maybe find a new potential partner there, and you might not miss him quite as much as you had expected. As he is a friend don't completely lose touch, but for now just keep it to phone calls or emails =]
