You just got promoted and there you are jeopardizing your career over a married woman with a kid?!
Are you kidding me right now?
Come on, dude. Use your real brains! (Insert roll eyes here)

I guess she is mad I didnt text.

Today was awkward at work. I wish she would just tell me whats on her mind instead of giving me the cold shoulder and passive aggressiveness.
It's not surprising. Just proof that she's used to thinking about relationships like a teenager. She's annoyed because she didn't get a boost of attention from you.

That's great restraint to not text her this weekend. Keep it up, and only deal with her on a professional basis.

I didnt text her because its what we agreed go do. To put distance between us plus felt we both needed a few days to think things through. I have to walk a fine line with her because one thing I dont want is to have her be angry at me. Would make an awkward situation at work. People will notice something is up.

... which is why people say don't mix romance with work. Now you know.

Do your best not to let her manipulate you. You have crossed a line, as her supervisor. Just play it very cool and be as normal as possible at work. I honestly don't think I would communicate in writing with her at all anymore.

The fact that she says she is willing to divorce him and get another job so we can be together ... doesn't that say something?

Has she done it yet? No. How long are you going to give her to do those things?

I told her again we can’t keep seeing each other under these circumstances.

I think this can also be a test of whether she really loves me or not. If she moves on to dating other guys it will show that her feelings for me are not real and that she is just looking for quick fixes and escapes.


Couldn't she same the same about you? You made a career choice that is forcing you to put the relationship on ice. Couldn't she say that your feelings weren't real, and that you picked your job over her?


Personally, I think the 2 of you are a disaster waiting to happen.
