The women to whom I found myself attracted usually turned out to have female partners. I have absolutely no gaydar, possibly because I don’t give a damn about it.
People don’t usually work that way. If anything, finding out that a potential partner is a commited partner (to someone else) tends to build interest, not diminish it.
But that doesn’t mean you have to act on it. I agree with Dangerosa and GrumpyBunny here. What’s important is not how you feel, but how you act with integrity. When I was in my thirties, I learned that I could totally enjoy a crush - that adrenaline and oxytocin rush when they walk into the room is intoxicating! - without losing my ability to control myself, respect their relationships and do my job.
If you can’t manage that, transfer to another unit. If you’re a CNA, your job duties are flexible. Unless he’s a floater, you just won’t see him elsewhere, and then your feelings will likely fade.
Yes. I was attracted to a co-worker who was living with a guy. I just kept asking her to lunch and was generally charming. She left him for me.
Oh brother, from your Yahoo Answers thread:
[QUOTE=Barnes]
Today I decided to wear make up and look nice since I knew I was working on his floor.I am CNA and he is a Nurse
Then sometime during the shift,he called my name to get my attention .Then he asked me if I went out last night .I said no and I asked why.He was like its because you wore eye liner so I thought you must have went out clubbing or something like that.I just giggled.Its because I never wore make up before at work Then sometime later during the shift after he finished applying a dressing to one of the residents,he asked me to get a pack of ice for her hands that's swollen in the fridge .He went in is office to get a plastic bad to put the ice in the bag then he was like So you did your make up today, you look good``I just blushed and said thank you .Its ironic because I wore make up today for him… [snip]

From your thread here 2 month later:
So those are from two different people two months apart?
Yeah, I’m not buying it.
I thought you where referring to the one I posted on this site about an older co worker who was heavily flirting with me and I stated that I was uncomfortable by his comments and asking advice how to deal with it.
and yes the one you are pointing out on yahoo answers are the same guy but I don’t see what I post on yahoo answers is relevant to this forum. They are completely different forums with presumably different users and moderated by different people.why does it matter?why do you care?What is it business of yours what I am posting in a different forum?
I have noticed other users posting same threads in two different forums before and I coudnt care less. Maybe they didn’t receive allot of answers in another forum and they want better answers?As I recall ,I only got 2 people answer my question and he first answer wasn’t helpful at all .I got much better answers on this forum
Yes, you are, and yes, you can. But, like real life, you have to put up with odd character who likes to point out flaws and failings. Remember, people came to this thread because they liked the title and the original post: nobody else came to this thread to learn what some other random dude thought about your posting history 
Think of it as a learning and growing experience
alright, I’ll leave you alone to your thread.
But when you say something happened to you “today” when something really happened to you six weeks ago, I count that as relevant. Not only that, it sets off my BS meter.
I’m not normally in the habit of calling BS on posters. In the 14 years that I’ve been here, I can only recall doing it two or three times. (including you)
Also, I’m not the one who dug up your YA thread. That was another poster.
But anyway, if this guy really owns all that real estate and you want him evicted, a good place to start is to actively put him out of your head. Stop making threads about him and when you find yourself daydreaming about him, make yourself stop.
Other posters are right, crushes can be cool, but obsessing on someone isn’t healthy for you.
If I could switch off my feelings for him I would have done that as soon I find out he has gf.Unfortunately it doesn’t work like that. I hope this will pass soon.

Yes, but I didn’t care, I just wanted to be with him. Then one of his other girlfriends found out about me and another woman he was intimate with, called his wife and told her everything. He lost his wife, his kids, his home and the family business. I walked away, too.
Get over it. Pursuing a man in a relationship most often ends badly. Maybe he leaves her for you, but then you always need to worry that he is the kind of man who will dump his girlfriend for someone new.
Actually, I came to this thread because I saw the multitude of other threads of exactly the same topic by the same poster and thought there is a major problem here.
I’m kind of intrigued that when this guy sees you wearing eyeliner, his first thought is that you were out clubbing all night and came in to work without taking a shower, rather than that you put on eyeliner this morning…
Oh I’m sure writing threads about it for the past two months will help you get over it toot sweet.
Okay. So let’s say that you 2 keep up the friendly relationship, he eventually asks you out, and cheats on his GF, then leaves his girlfriend for you. Would you really want to be with someone who would do that? Because you would be the next person he would do it to.
Ask for a different work assignment. Out of sight, out of mind.
The reason why I posted this thread was because I wanted to see if other people experinced the same thing and how they delt with it.I am not asking weather or not I should pursue him.I don’t plan on pursing him or act on my feelings .
I think it’s safe to say that most people have been in that situation before. I have, a couple of times. I solved it by not purposely putting myself in situations where I knew we would be together. If you must work with him, then just keep it on a professional level. And stop wearing makeup to work. 
That’s why it’s called a “crush”. That “cutesie little fuzzy” term on the surface runs silent, deep, and deadly.
I’ve been in this kind of situation a few times, having the hots for someone at my workplace who were either not interested or already in a relationship. I always wondered a bit why it never seemed to happen to anyone else.
Then, after lots of observation, I had a bit of an epiphany. It does happen to other people. Constantly. All the freaking time. So how do people deal with it?
Well, I think that they mostly just control themselves. I think that there’s a whole lot of sexual tension kept in check by self-control in most work environments.
Simple, really. And, at the same time, difficult. How difficult depends on how much of a natural stoic you are. But I really think that this is what is going on.
After a while, you’ll get the hots for someone else, hopefully outside of work, hopefully single, and hopefully interested in you. Then that will refocus your attention. And that, I suppose, is how these situations mostly get resolved.
Sigh. Only if you work in a workplace that isn’t filled exclusively with middle-aged guys. Those days are gone…
