Know her for a little over a year. We are close but there is still some distance. We've dated somewhat, but work together and complications have come from the workplace. Management is not happy about the budding relationship. I want her to know that I care, yet am afraid of losing the spark that is already there. Because of our jobs and the bosses not liking our interest. We have had to remain neutral there. However, I work nights and she is on days. It is difficult to plan for time together. It has stalled the romance. If only there was a surfire way to show her I care without coming across like a little kid back in grade school. I am 7 years younger then her also. So I have some phobia about her perception about me. My age. And also, if I am serious or not. Please help!

you could tell her everything you just typed in here and be honest with her. i think that's romantic. or you could ask her if she has plan on a certain day because you have a surprise for her. plan it out for a week. do something extremely romantic on that weekend. take her to a cabin on the coast, or cook her a romantic dinner w/ candles and rose petals and the works). This relationship might work alot better if one of you got a different job, but if it's meant to be it will work out no matter what. be honest to her and treat her like a princess. girls love that, but too much of it can get annoying too so be careful and keep it balanced. too much attention and not enough attention are both really bad things. :) good luck sweetie

I can always tell that a man is interested based on the amount of thought they put into me....either by just simply keeping in contact on a regular basis or by affection. Actions usually speak louder than words and women love men that give attention. Love knows no age, so don't worry about. As far as your work is concerned, you should keep your relationship out of work anyway, it's the professional thing to do. Many couples have different schedules and find time for each other. Your time apart will make you more fond of each other, and the spark should stay much longer than most couples that see each other too often. Don't over analyze, just go with the flow.

Tell her you "adore" her. It's not dropping the "L" bomb, but it's still going to get the point across, and it's a nice word that ladies like. But say it at the right time, don't just call her one day and say it. Say it when you're with her, right after she does something cute or funny. Trust me, she'll think about it for weeks and weeks, and maybe even open the door for you by asking what you meant. :) Good luck!

Not sure the difference between really caring for her and being in love with her.
If she has any doubts (and by the way seven years is not an age barrier) about how serious you are about her, then you should consider saying the L word.

Just start by telling her you like her A LOT, then maybe she'll feel the same way about you. Do you enjoy being with her? Do the two of you enjoy each other's company? Do the two of miss each other when the other is gone? All of this is something to think about.

If you work in an office, you could start leaving little gifts in or on her desk, without a card, so no one will know for sure they came from you. They don't have to be expensive, and probably shouldn't be, but they should be personal. For example: if she has said she likes skating, you might buy her a small figurine of an ice skater [with or without a man in it].
If your in a factory situation, you might have to be a little more creative with leaving her little tokens of affection. You could always mail them to her.

try telling her you care deeply for her without using the 'L' word yet. Tell her you want to move forward in your relationship. See how she reacts. If she seems responsive, then maybe you can tell her exactly how you feel without fear of rejection.

You should email or tell her personally and tell her how you feel. Make plans with her during the weekend, away from work. Hope it all works out!

Those were great feelings in school and its OK. Maybe get her a small gift to let her now you are still thinking of her.
