writes: I am a divorcee (no kids) experiencing a very "odd but comfortable" relationship with a workmate who is also divorced (has kid of 6 yrs). I'd like to know if this relationship can work in the long run, or if we are risking our friendship.It developed 10 months ago and is still going. We work side by side, so we see each other every weekday. We are very close as friends, and talk incessantly about our respective things and lives. He calls me or texts me most days after work too and on weekends to chat. We very rarely go out together and when we do it's never in our city (primarily because it's against company policy for work mates to be going out, especially if one of the two is a superior, which is the case). We have sex, usually at my place, (he lives with his younger sister) or even in the workplace. We have acknowleged that we love each other loads, but neither of us are interested in commitment as such. At least for now. We both love our independence and space too much. (It might have something to do that i've been divorced for only a year, and he has suffered his second divorce only 2 years ago). Are we weird?

No more wierd than the rest of us? If you are both content with this level relationship that is fine. However, I think you would like a little more from it. That is perhaps when a problem may occur or oi he felt he wished to enhance your relationship.If you are both content it is fine, enjoy!
