[b]Having a crush is not active, it's passive. You could have a crush and no one would ever know, not even the object of your crush.  I think it happens to most people.

Flirting? That's different, and unless you're very sure that it won't get back to any co-workers, friends or spouse, it has the potential of turning people against you, sometimes permanently. There are few circumstances when you could flirt without anyone you know witnessing that, unless you're a traveling salesperson or similar.[/b]

Being just friends: that's a grey area. Lots of people have work wives or work husbands, ie, someone of the opposite sex at work with whom they get along well. You could have a crush on them too, but not flirt, just... spend time with them in a friendly way.

That part. Work spouses are for the immature and will likely bring more drama than needed.[/quote]

Nonsense.  People who can't handle their spouse having a non-sexual relationship with a member of the opposite sex are immature.[/quote]

A friendship sure. A relationship or a work spouse np? If you want this kind of things marriage isn't for you.[/quote]

Sounds like you have a very weak marriage if you think these harmless work relationships pose such a threat.[/quote]

I was waiting for that attack, a classic sign of immaturity.  If you knew anything work friendships are often a threat to marriages. [/quote]

DP. I've had lots of very close relationships with coworkers I'm attracted to. They're not a threat to my relationship in the least, because I'm faithful. Some people will struggle with having those relationships and remaining faithful, but not every one does. It's weird to insist they do.[/quote]
