    Not just lust
    I expressed my feelings to a girl at work and she said she likes me too, I feel very strongly about her. She has a boyfriend but has admitted not being happy with him anymore. I feel like we should be together but she says it's just lust I have for her, I love this gal yes I want to kiss her and more but I would also be happy just being with her. I care about her and really want to be her boyfriend. She is confused. What should I do? I've been giving her some space because I like her. It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do. Please help.

    If she is really unhappy with boyfriend, she would leave him.
    And it is not "love" love grows from sharing and knowing each other. And of course there is some lust, that is where 1/2 of most relationships start, it brings you together, so you can start being friends and find love and let it grow.

    I think she is right, its lust, and you don't have to, or should act on it, and respect her relationship, because whether its good or bad, its her business, NOT yours so stay out of it, and control your own lust.

    Work is not the place to pursue a person any way, and your crush/lust can make work a very uncomfortable place for you both. You really need a life outside of work to concentrate on.Give her more than space, leave her alone, PERIOD!

    She is totally unavailable for your lust/love/ or crush, or anything else with YOU! To be clear, she rejected you nicely, so leave it at that.
