Hello all. Hope you are doing well. Here's my story:
After close to 15 years at the same job working as a Sous Chef, I was let go because of the slumping economy. It was a tough pill to swallow, but I knew that there was a deeper meaning behind why there was such a big change happening in my life. And I'm convinced now that it was so I could find the woman who I believe is the one. I landed a job at a much smaller restaurant for less money and it has been a difficult transition for me for many reasons. However, during my tenure at the new job, I have fallen hopelessly and completely in love with a woman who I will call Linda. It wasn't love at first sight though I immediately found her attractive. But being a Sagittarius, I can be quite shy and quiet. But over the next few months, I found myself thinking about her all the time. It was then that I found out she was married. So, being respectful of that, I kept my mouth shut about how I felt and tried to bury those feelings, though it was difficult and would make gestures to a dishwasher who spoke no English that my heart was for her. Nothing more. Then one day, the sous chef asked me what I thought of a particular waitress...I said she was "okay." Then the dishwasher yells out, in English no less, "He loves Linda!". The sous chef replied "Go for it, man. She wants a divorce!!" My head began to spin. All the feelings I had tried to bury came to the surface like a wave over a beach. It overwhelmed me. It turns out that her husband has not held up his part of their marriage. He doesn't work because he chooses not to, not that he can't, and has put the burden of supporting them both on her and has simply taken her for granted. They are now on the verge of losing their house while he is in jail for a DUI. Get the picture? Everyone I talk to at work who knows them absolutely loves her, and can't stand him.

I don't want to come off as some sort of vulture, though I do feel like that sometimes. We have so much in common. We are both Sagittarius. I was born 12.20.70 and she was born 12.21.69. We both have ascending signs in Scorpio. We have the same interests in astrology(I've been teaching her what I know), karma, spirituality(not religion) and are genuinely altruistic people who want to help others. Others at work have seen the chemistry between us and over the months there have been several flirtatious moments which is odd for both of us as were are both pretty shy and quiet people.

I've decided that even though I know the Universe is teaching me patience, I have to, in a subtle and genuine way, let her know how I feel. Her birthday is coming up so I bought her the new Astrology 2010 book and had a birthday card personalized for her with a Sagittarius theme and a poem I wrote for her, one of many. But this poem is special. Since she was born on the Winter Solstice, I thought it may be fitting to let her know how special I believe she is and that on the day she was born, the sun stands still. I want to hear your opinions about my approach to win her heart.

Thank you all in advance and wish you all perfect happiness.

Thank you stonyeye. Yes, it has been difficult. But I know in my heart she is the one and all the signs tell me that my patience will win out in the end. I have hope, and hope is a waking dream. I wll keep you posted.

Thanks. I believe we are fated. I'm not sure if her husband is an Aquarius. I try not to pry into her personal life and she does keep me at a distance when it comes to what's going on with her in that regard. My sister has told me that it's because she likes me that she doesn't reveal her dysfunctional marriage details. I did receive some pyschic insight from hanswolfgang earlier tonight and it was very positive. I was worried he'd tell me something I didn't want to hear but it was all good. Patience......it sucks but I told a friend earlier in the week that if I knew there was even the slightest chance we could have a life together, I'd wait an eternity.

Yes Azaza you are meant for each other, it wont be long. patience will be appreciated. She smiles at you alot and looks forward to coming into work to see you. You are very comforting to her and you are doing exactly what she needs from you right now. Dont get discouraged if she pulls away momentarily, she may become overwhelmed by your feelings for each other, but hang in there because soon she will be all yours. Lucky YOU!!!

Azaza I wouldnt go as far as to say I am psycic as I feel we all are to a degree. I have very strong intuition and pick up things sometimes I never force it or try hard. I have been working on my own spirituality for quite sometime and I got a strong feeling off your post so I responded what came to me. I have had psychics tell me I am so I try to help when I can. She really does smile at you often, I dont think she smiles as much when you arent around. In fact quite the opposite I think her situation has caused her much more grief then it was worth and its making her question her judgment about men in general so go slow and give her time to heal from her last relationship which I am assuming she is still tying up loose ends. You have given her a great deal of strenght to be able to do this. She thinks about you almost as much as you think of her. But she is somewhat distracted from her situation. She isnt ready to jump into anything but when she is you will be the first to know.
