There’s this guy at work that I am absolutely crazy about.
He’s just turned 21 and I’m 17 about to turn 18. I just broke up with my boyfriend who also works with us because I didn’t have feelings for him anymore and I’m too crazy about this guy. I’m always trying to hang around him and catch his eye. I’ve always had a crush on him; ever since we met I’ve been extremely attracted, and he’s just my type, which my ex-boyfriend wasn’t.
Today at work, although everyone else mentioned my ex, he didn’t, despite the fact that he and my ex are friends (not good friends, but they chat a lot at work) and that the three of us have hung out a few times with a couple of other people, which I found a bit odd. Everyone else was either mentioning him because they didn’t know we’ve broken up, or saying ‘all of us were wondering why you were with him in the first place, he’s so immature, you need someone older’ etc. But nothing from ‘the’ guy.
Anyway, at the moment I practically live to see him. It’s at that depressing obsessive stage where I’m having fantasy conversations and looking at photos of him online all the time. It’s so frustratingly stupid! And last night I dreamt that we were holding hands and becoming a couple, and I was SO happy, both in my dream and when I woke up during the night.
Anyway, he’s so friendly that it’s hard to tell whether he’s just being nice or if he’s interested. I wish I could just tell him, but the fact that he’s older makes me feel like he’s going to think it’s just a stupid, juvenile crush (one I’ve had for about a year, mind you) and it would be awkward working together.
But today I was invited to a dinner by another co-worker that he’ll be at. Our workplace is really casual, and a lot of people have gotten together (hooked up) there. Everyone also likes to get drunk a lot, which I don’t really. But it kind of looks like an opportunity, and I’m really excited.
But I get really excited every time I see him, and then it just makes things worse when nothing happens.
Maybe he does like me but doesn’t want to ask me out because he and my ex are friendly? Maybe he doesn’t like me at all? What should I do, I can’t stand it! Sorry this is so long!!! :P
