I have had a crush on a 24 year old I work with since we met in September. We quickly became close - we see each other outside of work, text, email, phone, exchange sentiments (he once told me I make him want to count stars), etc. It felt as though we must have met for a reason - I haven't been close to someone like that, and felt so connected on very real things, in a long time.
I just turned 29, and he was at my house for my birthday. He was super-affectionate, considerate, and very attentive to me. My friends, in fact, called the next day to say how sweet he'd been, and how much they liked him, and how he probably had no idea how I felt, because why wouldn't he have made a move by now?
On Monday, he insists on taking me to dinner for my birthday. He spends the time talking about the attractiveness of other women, discussing how you can love someone and then you can "love love" someone, and explaining how he's dying to meet someone.
It feels awful, like I'm being used or led on.
