My best friend in the office is having a terrible time with a coworker he works very close with. He is married and so is she. The problem is both of them are falling fast in love with each other. They are doing their best to try to keep their relationship professional but friendly but both of them are in loveless marriages and are just staying with their spouses for the kids.
Every time my friend talks to his coworker he just melts. He is just smitten by her. There is just so much chemistry and attraction. She seems just like the type of woman he always dreamed about being with. The conversation comes so easily, they have so much in common and the physical attraction is so strong. He could tell his woman friend at the office felt the same thing and he talked to her about it and confirmed that she is falling in love with him too. They agreed that becoming a couple was not practical so they promised that they would make every effort to stay formal to each other and not get to close. But so far it is not working and both of them just want to be together. But they can't.
Can two people who share incredible chemistry force each other not to fall deeply in love for practical reasons? Or is it a losing cause?
Have you ever been deeply attracted to someone who was also attracted to you but had to force your self to stay away for practicial reasons?
It's called integrity. It's called loyalty. This is INFATUATION, not love. Love has nothing to do with this scenario.
Love is about commitment, honor, VOWS. It is about doing what is RIGHT in the face of temptation. It is about respecting your spouse.
Both of these pigs need to be slapped senseless. If the woman really cares about her husband and her family, then she will remove the circumstances that cause the conflict. She will do it IMMEDIATELY.
I have no respect for people like this. They are below contempt. They are the worst kind of people on the planet.
You really should choose a better class of person to call Friend.

Its not even infatuation, its the uglies ruling the mind.

Could not have said this any better myself!!! (And would just add that the children of these two people, even though they *might* survive a divorce between their parents, certainly do not deserve to have that thrust upon them just because these two cannot keep their hands off each other!) As Dr. Phil says: You have to EARN your way out of a marriage by trying everything else under the sun! Divorce should always be the last resort! Yes, children are resilient, but that doesn't mean they should be forced into that role just because they have selfish parents!)
Affairs happen because married couples take each other for granted! Check your own values and morals before passing judgment. Loveless marriages are a joint disaster, check your own morals at the door, controlling behaviors smother individuality and cause strife. Love is UNCONDITIONAL, remember?
Obviously the OP is one of the people involved, it's not "friends in the office," it's one of the people involved.
Married people become attracted to other people at work, it's very common. What you're describing is indeed infatuation or sexual attraction, not love. But still, infatuation is very powerful and addictive.
Both of the people at work need to sit down and communicate. How strong is the attraction? Do they both want to divorce and pursue a relationship? (I seriously doubt that, this happens only in movies).
So the relationship seems doomed on many levels: screwing around at work invariably leads to big trouble. And in this economy, do you want to risk your paycheck and your livelihood for a fling??
