Over the last couple of years, a woman in my office and I have made, what I’ll call, “a special connection”. Anyone observing us for more than a couple of minutes could tell we had a crush on one another. We’d see each other in the hallway or at a company event and give each other a hard time and/or innocently flirt. That’s pretty much as far as it went, we’re both married, her pretty recently, and I don’t like shitting were eat, not to mention, technically I was her superior, she didn’t work for me but I’m in Senior Management and she’s not.
A few weeks before us hooking up, spoiler alert, we ran into one another in the hall, she had a glow and I knew something was up. After our customary back and forth banter she told me she was pregnant, I wasn’t all that surprised, she’s in her early thirties, married for couple of years, you didn’t have the be clairvoyant to see that coming. I remember being a little disappointed, feeling like I lost my opportunity, although realistically it was never gonna happen anyway, at least I thought. But now I oddly found myself even more attracted to her, there was just something about her being pregnant, it wad hard to put my finger on but, I wanted her more than ever.
