    Basically, get on very well with my boss, she bout 10 years older than me but very attractive and married for 2 years, but it seems at every chance she talks about getting a new partner.
    Last week, she told me he was headin away for a few days and told me she couldnt wait and winked at me...
    Just don't know what to say in certain situations? Feel bad for the hubbie but if she aint happy, is it very frowned upon to go for it and flirt back?

    Well there are at least 2 things wrong with this situation. A) She is married & 2) She's your boss. Either one of those should be enough to back off. Don't reciprocate with any flirting, she is acting quite inappropriately if she is flirting with you.

    Winking doesn't mean that she wants to cheat! There was hopefully something more than a wink to indicate she wants to bed someone.

    Leave it be OP. Nothing good can come from this.

    If things are that bad between them, well let her put her money where her mouth is,& leave him. Otherwise it's simply a case of her wanting to have her cake and eat it.

    If you flirt/get with your boss and things go bad in anyway, you'll be out of a job fairly quickly.

    If you go for it and you've misread the situation, you'll look very bad, be very embarrassed and might lose your job if word gets about.

    There's just no reasons for it being worth it in the long run. Simple as.

    You most likely wouldn't be having a relationship with the boss. It would be either a fling, one-night stand or doomed affair. She's your boss - you will suffer more when in ends in the job stakes than she will.

    She is acting totally inappropiate flirting with someone she manages but do not go there whilst she is your boss. Ever. Not unless you want to be looking for a new job.
