pink_haze Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 I had a bf but we broke up 5 mos ago. We used to joke around a lot, until I once joked that I had a crush on another co worker lol (which I regret so much). I didn't think he would take it seriously, until one time he overheard me and "crush" talking and laughing so he instantly messaged me accusing me of flirting etc etc. Also, we work together for this firm and we have our "busy season" so I was all stressed and was acting b*tchy all the time, picking up fights because I got stressed out, so we broke up, and that was more than 5 mos ago. Even if we work together, we work on different clients so we hardly see each other. With that, we did not see each other nor talk to each other for 5 months since we broke up (coz I knew he was mad at me) until last month, it was his birthday so I greeted him through text messaging. From then on, we would say hi/hello/what's up on instant messaging at work so I thought we're on better terms. But then again, last month when it was one of our coworker's birthday, he did not go and told our coworker that he still he didn't want to go because he still "feels awkward towards me". We never saw each other at work until last week, after more than 5 months. He came by my desk, but he was also friends with the person next to me, so he chatted with us but mostly to the other guy. I kept looking at him directly in his eyes so he'd get conscious lol, because when we were together, he would always get conscious when I looked at him directly, so I kinda did that on purpose LOL. Then during the day, or sometimes we would pass by each other on the hallway and I would joke around and he would just give me a straight face, or would just look at me for 2 seconds with a straight face then look away, as though he's trying to hide his smile (or so I thought). Then I came by his cube and tried to chitchat with him, then he would just give me a quick answer of yes or no and have a quick glance at me then stare back at his monitor while playing with his cursor and not even being busy! It's just weird because it's been more than 5 months since we broke up, and I don't know why he's still awkward towards me. I mean, on instant messaging at work, he says hello and asks how was my weekend, etc, and I do the same too, sometimes I initiate, sometimes he does. But when he saw me the first time in person, I'm not sure if he's trying to ignore me on purpose.. is he awkward coz he's not over me yet or he simply just don't want to do anything with me? Maybe I'm just having false hopes..please advise
Ilovecake Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Sounds to me like he might just not be too fond of you and doesn't really want to be friendly. He's not your boyfriend so he will not act towards you like he did when he was. Joking around and inside jokes and you messing with his head is no longer cool. P.S. Oh and it's selfconcious and councious.
