Would appreciate some prayer please. Since the start of the year, since I met her, I've been falling in love with my (female) boss. She is aware (to a degree) of feelings I have and isn't really comfortable despite me not acting on anything. Anyway, we are on a break currently and go into a new school term next week. I'd love to go in with a very clear changed mindset, focused on work and not her- honoring God in my life and that being most important, rather than her. I can't do this in my own strength. Secondly, I also work with a very aggressive, critical and outspoken person who makes my life very difficult. I'm need to stay where I am currently but I'm feeling very anxious. If you could pray for change in her or change in circumstances that would be great. Thanks in advance.

Are you a woman lusting after your female boss? This will not end well.

No, not lusting.

Have just been living my life, not feeling like I have to share that preference with anyone particularly. But women do seem to (increasingly with time) be more attractive to me.

Why did you join a Christian forum to proclaim your homosexual desires?

And how about her? Is she straight, Gay, or Bi?

Am I understanding you correctly? You want Christians to pray that this woman desire you in a sexual way?

Don't know to be honest. She's very private about her life understandably, being the boss. Honestly I think these are my issues and she's just doing her job.
Thanks for praying Levi.

No, that my mindset at work and in life would change and that God would be more real and important to me than people.

Ok. I will pray that God will strengthen you to overcome these desires. Just in case you don't know, we ALL struggle with various temptations. We love you, and wish for God's blessing in your life.

I thought perhaps this was the person that would come on here to force her sodomy views on others and had been banned a few times. Hopefully this isn't the case with this person.

For Rachelle1, you can over come your sin in Christ. Not certain what change you want to pray for in your female boss, just trying to make sense of your request. Also, a change in job, location or whatever is not an answer, your sinful desires will still be there no matter where you are at geographically as you well know. There are some biblical counselors who deal specifically with your situation. I hope and pray you will seek one out and they can help you. Hopefully you are also in a solid Bible preaching church.

I didn't come here to 'force my views on anyone' thank you. I really don't like the way you come across either. You have made me (with both your rude posts) feel even worse than I already do, for simply being honest and for asking for prayer. If I could delete this and not have your bereating opinions I would!
