closest colleague at work? She is not very

personality and a great
of humour. He’s
intelligent and has a -sharp
mind. The perfect man. We’ve been together now

any more. Should I be honest
with him and tell him?

feel a of responsibility towards
him. He has always been loyal to
me in good and bad times, which is a wonderful

want to make a decision which
