i recently started developing a crush on my boss, even though she is twice my age. I think it might have something to do with how she is respected by everybody on our staff. in that case i can't help but think that falling for her was inevitable.
Does anyone else think that it is only natural for you to be attracted to your boss?
I would think what is expected is to keep the business relationship with a boss on a professional, business level. Now, that does not mean you would not or could not find yourself attracted to a boss. However, it certainly would not mean you would have to, and most likely would also mena you probably should not act on the atttraction while the person is a superior.
I wasn't planning to try to date her, I know how to keep it professional.
It just struck me as odd that my attraction to her just seemed so normal, even though she is so much more older than i am
A few years ago I wanted my boss in the worst way. She was attracted to me also, but I resisted because she was 2 levels above me in the corporate chain and I thought better of it. She's with another company now and I regret not having fun for a bit!
I have had this happen to me, but with co-workers not bosses. There has been so much mutual attraction between my past co-workers and I but i never asked them out
Depending on the people involved, co-workers, work environment it sure can open you up to a lot of problems if you act on any attraction.
Then on the other hand, it can be the best thing that ever happened to you. Twenty years ago I was my wife's boss. After three weeks of being such I asked her out on a date. We have been together ever since that first date.
I've had bosses and coworkers attracted to me. Big sign: always finding reasons to touch you. I just flirt with the coworkers I am attracted to,
Most of my bosses have been female and I am straight so, no, it's not expected for me. The one time I did have a male boss, he was constantly in my face.
this happened to me recently on back to back days. two female co-workers recently hugged me even though they had never done so before. a 28 year old, and a 39 year old. They initiated it too, by walking over to my area, just to do that.
