DEAR DEIDRE: MY work crush left the company while I was away on holiday, now I’m worried I missed my chance.
I’m a divorced man of 40. My line manager was stunning but I always assumed she was out of my league.
While I was away on holiday, she texted me to say she was leaving. I’d had a few sangrias, so I immediately texted her back quite emotionally, admitting I would really miss her.
She replied that she’d miss me too. I’d love to ask her out, but what if she was just being professional?

DEIDRE SAYS: If she was just being professional, then she’d have asked to join your LinkedIn network.
Instead, she interrupted your holiday with a text, and she said that she will miss you.These are good signs.
As she’s not your line manager now, I’d suggest the following: first ask her out for a coffee before your holiday tan fades.
If she seems keen, she will accept with delight.
Secondly, read my pack. Standing Up For Yourself, to boost your confidence.
