Today, a coworker told me she may be in love with me. I admitted similar feelings and we agreed, since we're both happily married, not to spend time together anymore. Two hours later we were both promoted to run the same project, where we'll be "working hand in glove for the next couple of years." FML

College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, my coworker and I agreed to come clean and tell our fellow employees that we have been secretly dating for a while. Before we could, I received a promotion. I'm now his boss. FML
Today, I got a new job where one of my co-workers is someone I have been in love with for over 5 years now. She's married but my feelings for her just won't go away. FML
Today, I confessed my feelings to the girl I like, who also happens to be my coworker. She told my boss, and they're laughing about it as I type this. FML
Today, I realized that I'm head over heels in love with my coworker. She's funny, caring, sweet, and the best person I've ever met. We're also both married. I dream about her every night, and the stress of not being able to tell her has overtaken my PTSD, making it impossible to sleep and barely function. Fuck Love. FML
Today, during the party for my last day at my old job, my office wife professed her love for me. We’re both married, we have no chemistry, and I’ve been dumping my work on her for three years. FML
Today, I'm in a long-term relationship with a woman I love to bits, but I have a crush on a coworker. I've tried to brush it off, but it's only getting stronger. The worst part? I think she likes me too. FML
Today, I realized the extent of my crush on one of my employees when I found myself cropping our picture out of the staff photo to see what we would look like as a couple. FML
Today, I found out that the man I've wanted to be with for the last year and a half also wants to be with me. Two weeks ago, I got a promotion! I'm also legally no longer allowed to date him. FML
Today, I got paired up with a coworker for a three-month project. All he talks about is how attractive my girlfriend is and what he would do with her. FML
Today, a coworker introduced herself to me and told me she hopes I enjoy my new job. We've worked in the same building for two years. I say hello every time I see her. FML

Just remember hand in glove doesn't equal ring on finger.

State that there is a conflict of interest to your boss. You really don't want to put yourself in that position, OP, especially once you decide to be loyal to your spouse.

If you two were really happily married you wouldnt have fallen for another person.

#69 I agree because when you truly are in love & happily married there is no room for another person. Being in love is the content feeling you get when you literally are 100% fullfilled with your relationship. OP I hope you get this sorted out. Please at least consider telling your wife. good luck :)

What the actual ****.

Happily married, yet tempted enough that the only way you won't cheat is to steer clear of each other? I don't even see how you could fall for another if you're perfectly content with your spouse. I feel bad for both of your spouses for being strung along like this and I hope both you & your coworker can be mature and TALK to your respective spouses.

They are being mature by choosing to avoid each other. Why worry their spouses about feelings they don't plan on acting on?

If you have any self respect for yourself, your wife and marriage vows, you will get over your feelings towards your coworker and keep it platonic. Being disloyal to your spouse is despicable.

So is judging people who haven't even done anything.

You actually have no idea what his marriage vows were. Hopefully there was no clause that said "having feelings for someone else is a despicable act that is unforgivable".

I don't think #73 meant that having feelings for someone else is despicable but rather that the act of having feelings and acting on them is despicable.

Hello, OP admitted they need to stay apart in order NOT to cheat, since their feelings are apparently strong for each other. And now they are working close together on a project which we can assume he will more than likely end up cheating. Marriage is "for better or worse" not "until I end up working with a hot coworker"

Just keep your hand out of her glove, OP.
