Kaypee15 Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 I've known my coworker now for about 2 years and within the last few months, I've had a desire to be friends with her. Im not sure if it's some kind of connection or just the fact that we have a few things in common. She always tells me that I remind her of herself. This week we went out and had drinks after a work related event and the desire to get to know her and be friends with her is even stronger now. This may sound weird but I have not been able to stop thinking about her and the great time we had and I am not saying that in any type of romantic way. I'm a woman and so is she and I am not attracted to her in any kind of way. We do not talk outside of work unless it's work related and she is also about 11 years older than me. However, it's just something that's drawing me to her. Has anyone ever experienced this before? Is it some kind of connection?
d0nnivain Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 It's attraction. It's not divine or other worldly. It's just a normal human response when you like somebody. You want to spend time with them. 1
mon. Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 This is love! And you don't have to worry about explaining that it is not romantic, because not all love is romantic - nor it should! It's beautiful and, yeah, I'd say it's divine Plus, I'd say women have this need for girlfriends. Not in the Hollywood style "let's go shopping" and stuff, that's silly. It's just that we need this connection with someone else who is just like us and understands us, like the connection some of us have with our mothers when we become of a certain age and they become more our friends than our mothers. I felt the same way a few months ago when I met one of my best friends. It was "instant love" <3

It's definitely great when you find it. Of course friendships that don't have this deep connection have their place, too .
