Employee contemplates crossing the line
I’m 30, attractive and single. I work for a small company (11 employees), and have developed a gigantic crush on one of my co-workers, who has become a really good friend. We hang out, play golf, get drinks regularly. We also talk about our respective dating relationships, etc., so we know a lot about one another. He’s almost everything I want in a guy. However, he’s seven years younger than I, and is my co-worker. Admitting any feelings not only could make things awkward at work (especially if it’s not mutual — which I tend to think it’s not), but also could lead to us potentially breaking the nonfraternization policy that our company has. Do you think I should just keep my feelings to myself? What should I do?
