Our caller, Halima, is worried. She\u2019s got a huge crush on a guy at work. And while that situation brings all of its usual complications \u2013 what if she makes her feelings known and gets rejected\u2026and then it\u2019s awkward in the lunchroom? What if they end up dating but it doesn\u2019t work out, and then he\u2019s \u2018the guy at work that dumped her?\u2019 \u2013 she\u2019s got an even bigger concern: She wants a relationship but is concerned he\u2019s just after a \u2018hook up.\u2019 In today\u2019s LOVE Life, I break down the situation, help her figure out how to read his signals, and decide whether it\u2019s worth her putting in the \u201cwork\u201d to make it happen (pun intended) ;).
