My dearest K****** –
How are you? I am quite well, I suppose…aside from my unbearable desire for conversation with your sweet, sugary self. Things on this end of the office are cheap, and trite. The thought of you keeps me going.
Yours truly,
how should i handle this?

Tell your Mom to leave you alone, you're working.

-----> lmao..... oh wow. yeah, that letter definitly qualifiys as being in the middle...... really leaves a lot open as to questioning? *yikes* and you're both girls? and she sent you that? *sighs* oh vey. (you didnt specify in your question so i'm assuming youre both girls?)
okay well, let me ask you: how well do you know this co-worker? Some people simply talk like that - and if she's the kind of person, that uses phrases like "sweet sugary self" etc a lot then its probably harmless. maybe she needed encourgement? or was bored? or was trying to cheer you up?
I tell my friends (that are girls) that i love them all the time, and sometimes call them 'honey' or 'dear' or etc and sometimes say some really off the wall stuff to them on the same lines as what youre talking of -- and they do the same thing to me... and, we are friends, thats it. It's just normal for us to be that way towards eachother and say things like that. (we all used to work together too).
If someone i knew well (like, one of my close friends/associates) sent me the above letter, i would just assume they were being goofy and trying to cheer me up.... or needed my cheering up --- i would not read anything into it. UNLESS ---> they'd been flirty with me on several occasions, THEN i'd see it as a hint towards something. In which case, if your situation as a whole favours the later, (where she has been flirty with you, beyond reasonable doubt) then you probably should tell her upfront that you're not interested in anything romantic. I'd say, best way to handle that is let it go for now, and if she sends you more intra-office mail of questionable content, then its time to address the issue, and have a chat with her, as nicely as you possibly can. Especially if you're preference is men, not other women; that way it's less embarassing and uncomfortable for the both of you in the long run
(and youre both girls? *sighs* please dont take offense at this but, that's kind of gross; idk, i've a few gay friends, and though i dont agree with it, i dont take their preference into account whereas it concerns our friendship. the above is what i'd tell any friend, regardless of their personal choice:)

First of all.. The email sounds like a prank... If it isn't the first thing to do is consult your employee handbook. Most companies have strict fraternization policies. If not then go for it. But I would be more concerned with the name.. I'm not too sure how interested she'd be in a bedwetter.

She sounds a little cheap and trite herself, with a line like "sweet, sugary self." I'd be cautious if I were you.

If you want to pursue it ... email her back with "can I take you for coffee or dinner after work?"
If you do not want to pursue it, email her back with "I appreciate the thought but at this end of the office things are very busy!" and leave it at that. She should get the picture very fast.

"My dearest K" and the content of the email certainly sounds like that person may have a crush on you. The "Yours tru;y" however is quite formal. I would email back with thanks for the kind words, and perhaps invite the person for coffee or a drink , and then take it from there.

I think she definitely wants to hit that...it all depends if you like her back. She sounds a little aggressive just try to change the subject a little in your response...laugh it off and try to write about how boring and slow work has been or something.

Gracefully, keep doing whatever you have been doing. I bet it took a lot of courage for her to write that email. Take it steady and see how things pan out.

Well, If I were you, and I were available I'd get back to her and tell her I wanted to take her out after work for dinner, and take it from there.
