Is it normal to harbour a crush like this for four years?

I am extremely physically attracted to my work colleague, who is also a good friend of mine. He's married with kids and I would never do anything with him but everytime I go and speak to him, his eyes light up in "that way" and he'll turn to face me with his legs apart which provokes me to subtly check him out. He makes me so hot that at times I need to walk away from fear of blushing. is it normal to harbour an attraction like this for four years? I thought it would have disappeared by now but it seems to be getting worse.

    It's prob hard to let it go because you see him on a regular basis. Try not talking/interacting with him unless absolutely necessary. That could help a little.

    It could be a case of "you always want what you can't have"? Good luck though.

    I hate to say this because you consider him a good friend, but this isn't healthy, and unless he is blind he probably knows on some level that you are attracted to him. Depending on your workplace, it might be a good idea to look for transfer or department change opportunities that would involve being around him less often, unless you can train yourself to avoid thinking of him in that way. If I am attracted to someone I have to see all the time, I try to concentrate on their flaws or whatever boring hobbies or bad habits they have, it works for me =D
