Hello
I have had only one job, and have been there for about 7 years. I get along well with all my co-workers, mainly because I tend to talk very little, and many of them seem happy to share their own problems with me. My quiet demeanor also leads to being involved in almost no work-place drama, so I don't end up being a bother to anyone.
Recently though, it feels as though one of my co-workers is trying to get closer to me. She sometimes goes out of her way to talk to me (my station is somewhat isolated), and somehow gets me talking much more than I usually do. She also frequently seems to genuinely care about my well-being - providing recipes for food (she knows I can't cook and live alone), asks me what im going to eat for lunch, buys coffee for me, etc. The only thing that has been going through my mind at work and home is why would anyone be this kind to me?
I have never been in a relationship (24 years old), and I know she is already in one, but the attention finally led to me being somewhat attached. I find myself sometimes glancing at her, then immediately look away if she sees me. I realized I must be coming off creepy or desperate, so now I try specifically to avoid eye-contact or long conversations. I wish I could simply tell her not to be so kind towards me, but now I know I would miss it.
