I used to be very good friends with a married female coworker and lost touch for about 5 years. We used to go out to lunch often and were close friends, but nothing romantic. I am married too.
We recently reconnected and email each other just general chit chat about twice a week. We have started going out to lunch again and whenever we have lunch, within a day, she sends an email asking when we can go to lunch again.
She has been sending emails saying how much she looks forward to our lunches. Out of the blue, she send an email saying how much she enjoys my company and then says "Tom, you have captured my heart."
I have never been very smooth around women and while I know this looks like something, am I overreacting? Does this mean she is interested romantically? She doesn't do anything at lunch to indicate it, like touch my arm, etc.
Sorry if I come off as naive, but I don't have much experience with women and am clueless on signs and signals.
The confusion is that the "heart" email was one time. When we are in person, there is no flirting, no comments, nothing. Just acting like friends.
You're married, anyway, so who cares? What difference does it make? Probably you should dial back the frequency of the lunches, so as not to inadvertently appear to be encouraging her, just in case she has a crush on you.
As a married woman, I would not go to lunch, or coffee, or anywhere, with a male friend who sent emails about how much he enjoyed our outings or how I had captured his heart. It's completely inappropriate.

I should be more clear. I have no intention of cheating. I value her friendship, but if this is a crush or somthing more serious, I'm terminating the friendship. I think the advice to dial back the lunches is good advice.
often, the fordidden fruit,,,looks the tastiest...
she may be thinking, since you are married too...it evens the playing field
she does sound,,like she's got a fire in the bush,,,, and wants you to be the fireman
