WOMAN HESITATES TO SECRET LOVE FOR COLLEAGUE
DEAR ABBY:
I am a single in my early 30s who has never been married. I fell in love with a wonderful man with whom I spend a deal of time. He is unaware of the intensity of my feelings, and I’m afraid of him out of fear of rejection.
There are a of additional concerns: He is 15 years my senior and a medical doctor. I am a worker in a lower economic class. In addition, we are of religions, but we have similar spiritual beliefs and values. He also my co-worker.
I am very interested in pursuing a deeper relationship with this man, but would like hear your advice first. Thank you for your thoughts on this.
