I (23F) have a kind of work crush. I’m trying to keep it lowkey because I can’t act on it for many reasons, one of them being I have to work on myself first.
He’s from the south so he has that southern accent, little bit of a beard going on, and has a dad bod. He’s in his mid-thirties and we agree on a lot of the same things.
Granted, I know that just because he’s friendly doesn’t mean we could potentially date. I’m trying not to make it obvious that I have a crush on him because of our circumstance and I need to focus on myself before I even think of dating.
I also sometimes want to experience sex without the commitment but I know that could be dangerous. I know I’ll get there eventually because masturbation doesn’t cut it at times lol.

Work relationships are hard, and hardly ever turn out with a happy ending (figuratively).
The main point being that dating is one thing, but if it’s just sex maybe you should look elsewhere.
Both could go wrong, but one is more dangerous than the other.
These crushes can still be very helpful for you. You are getting to know who you may be attracted to and how to suppress your urges. You are also right to focus on yourself first. When you’re ready, sex will happen when the time is right.
