I, a female myself have a crush on this woman at work, she’s 30 and I’m 23 but I just can’t help how she has me like.. sprung! It’s driving me insane. Like is she manifesting me? lmao! We connected because I’m a custodian myself and I clean around her area, she gets there super early so we sometimes talk for a bit in the mornings and she’d open up to me at times and gives me coffee & advice. To me she is soooo fine but I feel like it’s not even about the looks.. it’s her personality and the way she carries herself; humble, funny and full of potential.

What’s driving me insane is that I feel like she knows that I’m attracted to her. I get this sense that she feels the same way because sometimes the energy seems reciprocated. I get extremely nervous around her, tongue tied, I say dumb stuff and I get all red. I’ve been trying to avoid her and lately I haven’t seen her so it helps a little. We tend to talk when we are alone but ignore each other in the hallways at work. It’s so awkward.

The downfall is that she has a boyfriend and kids. I’m super respectful therefore I don’t attempt anything. I sometimes wonder if she’s bi-curious or if she just finds me attractive. I’m also okay with just being friends but I just can’t face her, I get extremely nervous that I avoid seeing her. How do I cope with that?
