Is my female co-worker attracted to me?

[Anonymous]

I have a female co-worker who is very attractive. She is good looking, intelligent and very witty. She is also slightly shy, but can be very straightforward at times. She is a single mum. I am a married man several years her senior. I am not looking for an extramarital affair, but I can't deny that I am very attracted to this girl. I love spending time with her, but I'd rather not things got out of hand.

I am guessing that the girl is slightly attracted to me based on the following observations:
- She seems very happy when she is with me and gets very talkative and laughs a lot. Much more than she does when I observe her with others. She also seems _slightly_ nervous, but not in a negative sense.
- She seems to be very interested in spending time with me. If I offer her a lift or asks if she wants to grab some coffee, she seems to agree right away.
- I know she has a male friend who is very interested in her and is dating her, but when I ask her about it (jokingly) she downplays it and says she doesn't know what it is and what she feels about it.
- When we talk there is a lot of bantering and laughing.
- I have noticed that her feet tends to point towards me when we sit around tables with other people.
- I have also noticed that she seems to throw "affectionate" glances in my direction when she thinks I am not watching her.

So what do you think? I love spending time with this girl, and I wouldn't mind if she has a minor crush on me, but I wouldn't want her to fall in love with me. That could be very complicated as I find her so attractive. I would turn her down, but I would hate breaking both our hearts doing so.

wow. same exact situation as me. SAME Seriously only both of us are married. Is it bothering you right now, just going to keep tearin ya up inside like it does me probably and you just try to fight the feeling off but it don;t work right sorta? I'm still working on a solution and can't fix it but I like him so much that I'm ignoring him to try and yea he's a worker of my husbands also. I'm avoiding him right now and he has no idea how I really feel. I've came to the solution that if it doesn't leave before Summertime I might just have to tell him to get it off my chest and get the closure so I can move on without feeling like I'm hiding my feelings

It is difficult. But I have cheated on my wife once, and that was bad enough. That was during at time where the marriage was in a really bad state. Now it is actually much better, and I don't intend to or want to cheat on her again. I will only be working together with my female friend for a few more months, and I have decided to try to keep it the way it is. I really, really enjoy her company and she enjoys mine. If she signals an even stronger interest, I might have to say to her that there is no way this could go any further, but I hope that won't be necessary. I'd hate to disappoint her and make her sad.
