Ladies: do you want to know of a coworker's crush?
happily married 35 years, on the downhill side of middle age, honestly don't want to initiate intimate relationship (physical or emotional). I've had many professional relationships with women with no "complications" but every so often you meet someone that just lights you up.
These days, is it always "creepy stalker dude"? Do you want to know that we find you attractive and know that it's "hands off"?

You're married? How disrespectful to your wife to even think of telling someone that.
Wrong and creepy! Water your own grass.
This is a really good point. I have a coworker who used to excessively compliment me (and other women at our work place). Like EVERY time he saw me throughout the day he would comment on how pretty I looked or how cute I was or compliment my outfit. No "one" incident was bad or creepy...it was the sheer number of them that was creepy. I definitely started avoiding him if I could and would be pleasant but abrupt if I got stuck talking to him.
I never made a complaint, but I suspect someone else did. Because all of a sudden, the excessive compliments stopped in their tracks. That lasted for a few months. He has now a little bit gone back to complimenting me, but now it is at least down to only once or twice a week and has been at that level for a long time. I'm okay with that and am now a lot more comfortable about it.
