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