i'm 24 years old, she's 2 years older than i am, we are both attorneys at the same firm. i've been there for 7 months, she's been there for 2 years. i really like her !
i dont know about her though, we are friends so i am afraid this turns out to be a case of miss reading her signals ?!
i dont think this is a crush or just lust, i think this is the real deal, i think i'm falling for her !

my main concern is two things:
1- (question for all you ladies out there)she is older than i am, career wise she is more experianced and therefore more succesfull at what she does (i'm still on my two years training cuz i'm a junior) so will she find me suitable for her as a life partner (in egypt where we live age difference is still an issue, women still prefer older men)however i should say that she is open minded that most girls i know. In other words, will she see me as MAN enough for her ?
2- she is divorced (at a very young age too), will this be a HUGE problem like i fear i might be ?
PLS HELP ME :)

Don't over analyze everything...just ask her if she thinks of you as more than friends. All the other stuff, doesn't really matter.

Good luck...keep us posted.

Number 1 rule never i mean never get your meat where you get your bread!! enough said lol

--------------
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it is gone past me I will turn to see fear\'s path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain

Did you say you were in Egypt? If so, that might make it difficult for us to offer solid advice. There are some pretty major cultural differences/ social mores, etc.. But then love is love in any language/culture. I agree with mmaibohm. If it turns bad it could end your career there or it least make it a nightmare. However, if it really is love as you indicate, you better figure it out because sooner or later you are going to do something. Try talking to her as the lady said. Good luck man.
