It is better to move with him and ascertain his feeling about you. If he has attraction towards you, you open your offer. If he accepts,discuss in detail.I hope he will understand and accept you and your child.

Hi cherrie, Hope you are doing well. I am happy that you got a nice workplace. However, when comes to love and sharing I would ask you to go slow. I get that you kind of like him a lot but the point is does he like you as well? or more pertinent question will be Will he accept you with the child? Cherrie, reality is harsh and I do hope that you understand him better so buy time and control your emotions. Feel his vibe and then take a decision. At this stage you must not let him feel that you like him. I know, I am bit critical but I am a well wisher who would not want you to be sad again. Love and hugs.

First of all do you know what does he feel towards you. secondly is he single and available, only after finding the answers of above two questions you should proceed with this man. For you more important is that person you share your life loves your child too. So please be careful if you do not want to hurt yourself.

if you get the idea he might want you too then why not let him know how you feel, i mean, what is the worst thing that can happen?

its nice feelings. be cautious. anyway you have to convey your feelings to him. otherwise how will he know? if you keep mum, anyways he will never know that you have this feelings. do one thing, . just look at signs that he has the same feelings or not.If so you can approach him.

You are a female and he is a man. female case is more sensitive than male. A male can adjust him any where in any field of life, but in case of a female she should very care full. you like him. does he also like you. you should take care before taking any step. If he is married then would he accept you. these and more question arising. you should think and get the answer first to marry him.

First of all you need to open your heart and take the risk. There is no assurances in the feelings of love. I would find a time to talk to him and see how he feels. See if you two have a common ground to start a relationship on. Even see how you feel about different things such as family, kids and such. You will be laying the ground work to have a great relationship. But you have to be willing to take that first step and put your heart out there. It doesn't matter whether he is good looking are not. It sounds like he is a wonderful man with a great personality. That is what counts. Approach him casually and let him know that you would like to make some time to talk to him. Make sure he knows that it is not about the job.

You are indeed very attracted to him with the reaction that you are having everytime that he comes near. I suggest you give it time to know him a little better. Maybe you could also drop very subtle hints that says you like him and let him take it from there and make his move if you reciprocates your feelings.

I considered that once but I ended up hating myself afterwards because that made him turn away a lot of times.Why can't girls say what they feel?Why do people think that it's obscene if girls do that?You know guys are so confusing.If you do that,I tell you,there is a big chance that he'll say that you're yucky,a s**t,or he'll just play around with you.Well,depends on what country you are in because your culture differs when the place differs.

Personally I feel there is nothing wrong to make known your feelings. You might want to consider if he feels the same for you too, especially if you see a tint of even a slight clue that he thinks likewise. I do not know how long you have known him but it might be good to observe him further before you open out to him. At times it might scare him off. Good Luck to you :)

A question for you: Would you say you were exactly like every other woman out there? If your answer is 'NO', why are you judging this new man on the same lines as your ex-boyfriend? Every person is unique and deserves a chance to prove themself in life before being judged. Secondly, you must move forward from your last relationship and start to think positively, otherwise you will simply get what you expect. For example. if you keep expecting someone to steal from you, they won't disappoint you in the end! If we expect negative things, that's all we'll have too. So move out of your past. That's gone. Life is too short to do nothing about your feelings. You deserve some happiness so, if this guy makes you feel good, just say hello to him without expecting him to marry you! Don't tell him you like him until you get to know him better. Stop burdening your situation with fearful thoughts of what might happen. Just take it in your stride and start a conversation, then let it unfold in front of you. He probably likes you too and just needs an opening, but it also takes time to know someone and their desires. And, if he doesn't seem to like you the way you like him, no big deal. Someone else will come along soon. Just accept it and wait for Mr Right. If you allow people into your life without pre-judging them, you could be in for some wonderful surprises. Don't keep saying what you want from a relationship. That's how people get hurt by expecting perfection, or expecting people to act to expectations, and human beings do not behave like that. You will just keep getting hurt if you expect only what you want. Just allow any friendship to develop first, then gradually see what happens, or you might frighten guys away by being too intense. The best relationships are not those that we try to control, but those we allow to unfold in their own way. We tend to get what we want not by forcing things, but often when we least expect it too. Good luck.

Sweetie, you've got to be willing to accept what MAY happen when entering into a relationship. It could go very well or it could go very bad. You just have to take it day by day and not let all of your marbles out of the bag at once and ride it out and see where it'll take you. Just don't be too quick to give your heart for a little while and see how it goes.

Please Cherrie trend carefully, relationships are both ways round in that you can only love a person who loves you back. Take it slow, and maybe talk to the person to know if he is available but also be careful so that he doesn't take advantage of your feelings towards him. Also put yours son's interest first. He is forever part of you and any decision you take must be to his advantage.

Well I know you already has learned something from your past relationship. It bore you a child and that means there is something that was left from your past relationship. I think being attracted to this guy is pretty much normal. But then maybe you should wait for him to make his move towards you. For all you know he is ommitted to someone and you might just get disappointed. maybe getting close to him is not bad if you consider him as a friend in the meantime but then don't close your doors for him.

No, i think this is not the right time. You have to know him better as you said you are planning on loving someone and you want him to be your husband. Make sure that this guy show you that he loves you and admit that to you before saying yes to him.You have to be really careful now.

I would let him make the first move. I would not tell him you like him unless he showes a sign of liking you. Is there any rules against getting involved with administration at your work? Good luck Cherrie

I think much better if he would be the first to say that he likes you. If he really has this feeling for you, then I am sure he would not hesitate to court you soon. If that happens, then that is the right time also to tell that you also have this feeling for him. However before doing so, you need to verify first if he really is sincere to you. Ask him all the possible questions that would test his honesty and sincerity to you. I hope so that you will find happiness with this guy if ever you guys have become lovers or couples someday. Have a great day! :-)

I think if you really like this person then you need to give it a shot. Don't let past hurts keep you from finding someone that will love you for the rest of his life. i've been in past relationships like that, where i was hurt beyond belief...but, if i had let that decide whether or not i would ever take a chance again or not, then i would have never met my husband and been happily married for almost four years now. and he's taken in my two sons from a previous marriage as his own and loves him with all his heart just as if they were his biological children. we have a daughter together who is almost two, but she doesn't take presidence over my boys what so ever. he loves them all three the same. you have to take chances in life and if you really like this man, give it a shot. you never know....this could be your one true love. keep us posted and God bless

first, you have to be sure of how you really feel towards him is true. you should never tell a guy that you like or love him when you yourself isnt sure whether the guy loves you too... what if he tells you that he likes/loves you as a friend? i guess that would really hurt you so badly. what im trying to say is hold what you are feeling right now to yourself. try contemplating on these things. it would be a risky thing to do. love can wait especially if you want everything to be at the right time and place.
