writes: Two years ago I agreed to allow my real estate broker (single) to join my team even though I thought I was a conflict of interest. I was married at the time but shortly afterward the broker began to flirt with me (i.e. checking me out and letting me watch him, sitting toward me with his legs spread open, using any excuse to call me on the phone several times during day, etc). Well I eventually feel for the flirts and became close friends with this broker. Of course this cause problems with my marriage. My marriage ended in divorce I was okay with the divorce because this friend was there to provide emotional support, calling me at least twice a day just to see how I was doing and telling me things will be better without my husband. It was like he was encouraging the divorce. I remember asking him if money was no object what would he do and he replied take me on a vacation. However, he was very careful with the words he used and would never let on he had romantic feelings for me. Even so I really believed that this guy had fallen in love with me based on his actions. A month before my divorce was final, he began dating a girl and quickly became his girlfriend. I was crushed, devasted and very hurt. I conforted him about it and his reply was that he never had romantic feelings for me and never had my heart and I needed to grow up. Did I misread his signals? Was I that blind?

Looks like you did indeed misread him. Just curious, if this guy hadn't been in the picture, would it have made a difference in your marriage anyway? I mean you must have been unhappy or his attention wouldn't have been any big deal to you. So now you are footloose and fancy free so you will be able to find another guy who will actually have romantic feelings for you. Good luck.
