Have you ever fallen for your supervisor at work or has someone fallen for you as someone who is in charge?

Yes, I have had several supervisors take interest in me but only while I was enlisted in the Marine Corps. And I think it was by default because I was always the only female in my platoons and boys will be boys.
I had this happen about three times during my enlistment. The first was my sergeant. He had a wife and a baby on the way and he was always texting me weird stuff.
I didn't even give him my number personally but as my sergeant it was his job to have all the contacts. He would always try to corner me or get me alone at work so we could "chat". I think cheating is disgusting so I avoided him like the plague. I think he realized this and started trying to pursue me even harder and then I finally had enough and set him straight and then he changed units in our battalion. It was nice because I could focus on the mission better without all the distractions.
The second was my chief warrent officer. I mean he was in for almost 18 years. It was very admirable and I looked up to him. Then of course things eventually started getting weird. When we would all get together for events he would always seek me out. It started getting weird because he started coming to my shop's platoon all of the sudden and he would always find me and say something to make me laugh or just plain outright flirt.
Then one day he started asking about my man because no one seems to think he exists and then that's when I knew he was either sexually or romantically interested. He would basically ask where he was all the time and just try to make me question my relationship. It was very sneaky. And then he would always touch and compliment my skin. So I started avoiding him like the plague ahahaha.
To be honest, the Marine Corps is a male dominated branch. And for a while this branch had the most rape cases than any other branches. So much so that now female marines go to a separate boot camp than the males. At Paris Island, South Carolina is where all the females train and guys typically train in California. Overall, I loved my time serving in the Marine Corps. I was only assaulted twice but it was all fighting so I was truimphed.
I got punched for literally no reason by a sergeant who wasn't even mine. She was so hostile towards me that it became harassment. Then I finally reported her. She got into so much trouble for basically bullying me and then she stole my mail as well. So she also got served a federal offense for that too. I have so many stories ahahaha. The Marine Corps is a one of a kind job and the best job I ever had. And if I didn't get injured I would have made it to 20 years.
Great question! Semper Fidelis🇺🇲

I met my first love at 19 at my second job. His job was to train me and show me the ropes basically. We instantly hit it off and everyone in the room could tell as soon as we were introduced but we were head over heels with each other. I was the only female in my department and we got a lot of stick for being so close with each other. We were like to peas in a pod and we could tell what the other was thinking without saying it.
We both denied feels for each other constantly and I tried to stop myself from falling in love with him but my head wouldn't let him go. 7 mouths in I realised I was in love with him. He'd already let me down once by inviting me out with friends and then ditching me to almost hook up with another girl in a nightclub toilet. I was so mad with him when I found out and cried so much because I knew I liked him and I was stupidity hoping that was the night him and me were gonna finally kiss.
His friends told him I was no longer interested after finding out who he really was and he seemed disappointed in himself but never said sorry and months on he managed to make me forget all about that and started creeping his way back into my life. He started touching me more and buying me gifts. He also found out I'd been eating alone in the carpark so invited me to come eat with him in his secret hideout.
We'd watch movies and eat sweets mainly but we were both to shy to make a move especially at work.
Christmas party came along and as soon as I came out my hotel room in my party dress he looked shocked and told me I looked amazing. We hung out the whole night but there was another guy who liked me and kept hitting on me the whole night and tried to get me drunk so he could take advantage. I felt really uncomfortable and when I tried to ask this other guy for help he ingored me and another colleague came in to get him to leave me alone.
After that we got in a taxi all together and went into the city for drinks. I couldn't fit in the taxi so I sat on this guy's lap and he looked so nervous. Once out the taxi he lifted me out so my dress wouldn't get dirty and we ran off to find cigarettes but was just his excuse to get me alone. Nothing happened besides hand holding and cuddles.
After that we came back to bar everyone was in and we were sitting together flirting and that other guy came along. I told I wasn't interested and that I'd never date a co worker. That really upset the other guy and he went home.
I realised I'd fucked up so drunk me for it was the right time to fess up to all my colleagues about my feelings for him.
When we got back to work he got his friends to tell me he wasn't interested and after that we started fighting more and being cold with each other. I gave it on last chance but he messed up big time again and that was that. He got made redundant and we never spoke again

Yes. An ex-fiancé of mine. She worked for me. I still remember how we started. Apparently her and another of my employees could see on my face something was bothering me. As I walked by them both literally grabbed me and had me sit and had me tell them what was bothering me. Both were leaving in a few weeks so I know they weren’t worried about ‘appearances’. Anyway, one of the two convinced me to go on a picnic that weekend with her. I figured, “Why the hell not?” We both confessed to having wanted to back out while on the picnic and we both were more than happy that neither of us did. Nearly 9 months later we were engaged. Which ended a few months later due to her cheating which I would learn about long after the fact. ... and explained a lot of things that never made sense, like being called, “Brett” by her mom.
Another girl prior to the fiancé who worked for a different supervisor had a thing for me as well. One of her co-workers kept bugging me to take her out. Ironically her mom briefly worked for me and knew I wasn’t altogether interested in her daughter. Attractive, just not my sort I suppose. Anyway, I eventually caved to taking her out. She tried dangling sex to keep me around. I declined. Something her mother said before we left made me laugh and her attempt with sex made me understand what her mom was hinting at...

Dear Penthouse, I never thought I would be writing to you, but. . .
Before law school, I worked as a mental health counselor in Tampa. I worked an evening shift in an inpatient unit. The staff usually went to a local restaurant/lounge for a drink after work, to unwind and decompress. I was attracted to the RN who was the charge nurse for the unit but I never acted on those feelings, as I will explain below.
One night, everyone except her left and she became a bit more flirtatious. When we left, I walked her to her car. She suddenly launched herself at me, started kissing me and asking me to take her home with me. There were two reasons that prevented me from giving her what she wanted. First, she was a married woman. Second, I knew her husband and I thought he was a good guy. It was very tempting but I broke away from her and very kindly suggested that she go home and work things out with her husband.
About a month later, I left that job - for unrelated reasons - to return to my hometown, and I never saw her again. However, since I have access to online databases that are not widely known and used, I recently checked and she and her husband are still married.

Yes to the second.
Not going into details about what happened later! - 890 opinions shared on Relationships topic.
Never happened to me but happened to someone I worked with.
A touch of backstory beforehand; they worked together as supervisor and just out of high school (not as weird as it sounds he didn’t go to further education so was only a few years older). Nothing happened, she went to uni and he married someone who made him unhappy.
She came home from uni and started working again and he ended up her manager right at the time his marriage was falling apart. They ended up having an affair and he is now married to her and they have a child and are very happy together. - 2.4K opinions shared on Relationships topic.
There is someone that runs marketing and see is a bbw, very close to this
She is very trendy and very attactive. I was close to seeing where she was in terms of single status but then she brought up her husband 🙄 single life during your 30s is the best 🙄

I don't know about fallen for, but a supervisor of mine thought I was racist, and I thought she was sexist, and after a couple weeks of yelling at each other and verbally tearing each other down, we ended up buying a couple fiths of hard liquor, found a secluded spot after work, and hashed things out, getting drunk and sharing things about our past while growing up, that we wouldn't have otherwise done so without the liquor, ended up tearing each other a new one, then found ourselves becoming way more intimate than was appropriate for a employee - employer type relationship.
Our coworkers knew what we had done, because they had no other explanation as to why we were being so nice to each other all the sudden, and we had too stop getting frisky with each other after work to save our jobs. - 663 opinions shared on Relationships topic.
I had an affair with one of my staff once long ago. I owned the company and one day one of my employees started flirting with me and we went back to her house. We were both married but I was actively cheating with multiple women and she knew it. Afterwords I told my partners as it could effect my business decisions and soon after it was found she was stealing from us. To this day I don't know if the two acts were connected. Mind you this was in 1992 or so.

How about the store manager trying it on through social media to keep it out of the workplace? 😷
Didn’t even have anyone to complain to, as he was top dog 🙄 -
Nah, it was only lust. Nothing ever happened. It was more just sometimes i'd glance at her body when she wasn't looking my direction. I think anyone who's anyone has always at one point fantasized about their colleague or even customer or client per job in a working life or more.
