Today, I found out that the coworker I’d been crushing on told me he was gay so I wouldn’t hit on him anymore. Turns out he did that so he could focus on wooing a female coworker of mine. They’re now dating. FML

Today, I confronted my coworker, who I had a crush on, for lying to me. He’d told me he was gay when I asked him out. He’s now dating another coworker of mine who’s a woman. He took this up with my boss, and I was written up for “creating a hostile work environment.” FML

It takes a very big man to admit everything you just did. It's refreshing to see someone admit their actions, AND admit they're not proud of what they've done. :)

Sounds like it's time to have a serious talk with this person,OP. While the saying goes: Never dip your pen in company ink... I know of several successful relationships that started at the work place. Communication IS the key! Sit this person down and ask why they chose to act this way. Maybe, just maybe, they're one of those people that can separate feeling from work; such as you have described. Good luck!
