Married man is interested in me?

[Anonymous]

So he's been giving me plenty of signs that he's interested in me but I haven't been reciprocating even though he is very attractive physically, is sweet, kind etc. He hasn't mentioned any woman in his life till now to me but I was told by a mutual friend that he's married though he's not exactly happy in his marriage. His family basically forced him into it it was their wish to get him married so it wasn't a love marriage or anything also he's quite close to my own age and obviously got married early.

Now I don't know what to do in this situation. I fear something might happen between us because I have to spend a lot of one on one time with him at office it's not something that I can avoid and like I said I can't deny that there is clearly mutual attraction between us. Lately he's been asking about my health, taking care of me so I don't over strain myself, trying to do as much as he can to help me, spending as much time with me as he can after work just talking to me and stuff.

Even if I'm working alone I can clearly notice him just hanging around me for no apparent reason watching me for long periods or trying to make small talk etc.

Also, he just seems so so happy around me he keeps smiling and laughing with me but otherwise he's a very serious kind of guy.

I would just be careful, I mean he is married after all and no one should be forced to be married. He might not be telling you the full truth, maybe just now their marriage has been rocky but you can also tell him that you want to keep it professional incase he wants to hang out outside of work. I just wouldn't continue talking to him as more that just a co worker but again that's your decision

He hasn't told me about his marriage I got to know from one of our mutual friends that he's not exactly happy with his marriage this was before I got to know him.

That mutual friend has known him since college.

Is it something you want to ask him? or just not yet

[Asker]

Not yet

It sounds like you are already into him due to all the attention he has given you. Be careful of the pissed off wife reaction in today's world. It is difficult enough with stalking etc in regular relationship. Adding a wife into the equation is not a good idea. This is not a fairy tale... You are messing with another woman's man.

[Asker]

I'm not messing with anyone. I haven't been anything more than friendly with him he's the one who's been expressing interest in me.

Stay away is all I am saying. It is obvious you like the attention in the post. Stop It, is all I am saying. You obviously don't listen to the news and the jealous spouses killing boy/girlfriends etc.

"Now I don't know what to do in this situation."

Wrong. You know exactly what you should do.

Don't be a homewrecker. If something does happen between you two it will absolutely be every bit as much your fault as his.
