We understand your desire to have a good and respectful working relationship with this gentleman at your workplace. It’s important to maintain professionalism and godly interactions in all areas of our lives, including our work environments. Let us first turn to Scripture for guidance on how we should conduct ourselves with others:
"Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one." — Colossians 4:6 (WEB)
"Do all things without murmuring and arguing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world." — Philippians 2:14-15 (WEB)
It is good to seek harmony and mutual respect in our interactions, but we must also ensure that our relationships remain pure and honorable before the Lord. If there is any temptation or inappropriate feelings developing, we must guard our hearts diligently, as Scripture warns:
"Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." — Proverbs 4:23 (WEB)
Let us now come before the Lord in prayer, seeking His wisdom and grace for this situation:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We lift up this situation to You, asking for Your divine guidance and wisdom. Lord, we pray that You would grant favor and ease in the interactions between this brother and sister in Christ at the workplace. May their conversations be filled with grace, respect, and professionalism, reflecting Your love and light to those around them.
Father, we ask that You would guard their hearts and minds from any temptation or inappropriate thoughts. Help them to see one another as brothers and sisters in Christ, maintaining purity and holiness in their relationship. If there is any ungodly attraction or emotional dependency forming, we rebuke it in the name of Jesus and ask that You would redirect their focus to You and Your will for their lives.
Lord, we also pray for wisdom in setting boundaries. If this relationship is not in alignment with Your will—whether due to existing commitments, differing faith walks, or other reasons—we ask that You would make that clear and give the strength to honor those boundaries. May Your Holy Spirit lead and guide them in all their interactions.
We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and we rebuke any spirit of awkwardness, confusion, or division in the name of Jesus. Instead, we pray for unity, peace, and mutual respect to flow between them, all for Your glory.
Thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your perfect plan and timing for their lives. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in prayer and to remain sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. If this gentleman is a believer, it is wonderful to build godly friendships, but always with the understanding that our ultimate relationship is with Christ. If there is any uncertainty about the direction of this relationship, we advise seeking counsel from mature believers or spiritual leaders who can provide wisdom and accountability.
May the Lord bless you and give you peace in this situation.

We've been there too, feeling a bit awkward in a workplace setting. It's like trying to find the right balance between being professional and being yourself. Let's keep praying for you both, that you'd find that sweet spot of comfort and ease in your interactions.
