<human>: So this started about a month ago with a work colleague/friend. She (26/F) is going through a really rough patch with her father having terminal cancer and being placed in a hospice. We were alone and talking having a laugh then suddenly she broke down and explained the whole situation about her father and her partner (26/M) of 5 years not helping her and just going to either the pub or coming in and going to sleep ignoring the entire situation. I am in a similar situation with one of my parents and my partner ((23/F) 4 years) kind of shrugs it under the carpet. 

Since then over the past few weeks we have started texting and talking on the phone buying sweets for each other, feeding her them and now we miss each other, I feel we are beginning to lust after one another as she told me specific times to contact her when her partner works and when my partner works. I was going to surprise her with tickets for a christmas show as her father and her to give her some good memories.

I just need a look from an outside perspective as obviously I'm pretty clouded thinking wise.

Thank you.

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
