So...my relationship with that one co-worker. It's complicated. To the point that I've changed my relationship status to "it's complicated" on FaceBook. That's when you know it's a big deal. Well, at least in today's society.
I really want to hang out with him someday though. That's actually how I got his number. Because
we're both around the same age and so we share that special connection that I haven't really gotten with any of my other co-workers. I see him more as a friend than a co-worker.
So, how did I get his number? I feel like that's a whole 'nother story for a different post.
I meant to talk about how I think his mind works. Because I like talking about stuff like that. I feel like we're both similar in that we both kind of awkward in a cutesy way. I don't know if he's as awkward as I am, but he is definitely awkward. Well, at least I think he is. I remember we were standing next to each other at this one event we had, and it was just SO FREAKING AWKWARD. I had the feeling that we both wanted to talk to each other, but didn't know what to say.
He's the type of person you would just get along with really well. And I feel like I am too. Even though I might not seem like it. I'm pretty easygoing and not too picky in life. I feel like he's sort of the same way. Like he annoys the shit out of me at work and the things he does drive me nuts, but at the end of the day, I feel like he still cares about me, as much as he doesn't want to. And I'm the same way.
I saw this thing on Buzzfeed or Twitter or somewhere and it said "There's always that one person you look out for" or something along those lines and I feel like that's our friendship. We look out for one another. And that's what I like about it.
There's been multiple times where I've annoyed the living hell out of him and he goes "Do you wanna go?" And me being me, I've said, "Yeah, I'll go do my work!" And I think one time my manager commented on my snarky remark.
The reason (I think) we get along so well (in theory) is that we kind of have similar but clashing personalities. He's annoying, loud, and rude most of the time, and I'm calm and pretty nice and quiet most of the time. We're also pretty bad with saying words out loud, but we both kind of have our own little unwritten language that no one but us knows about. He has this book that he's told me his writing and I have this blog that I don't think anyone but myself reads.
At work, we hate the living hell out of each other, but outside of that, like on weekends, we get along quite well I guess. We text each other every so often. Recently, it's about work-related stuff because that's all we ever talk about and we poke fun at our other co-workers. I feel like we together as one, make a pretty good team. Like if we made something together, it would turn out weirdly cool. I'm a dork and he's a nerd. And we're okay with that.
I just REALLY WANT TO HANG OUT with him sometime. Emphasis on the HANG OUT not GO OUT because that has two different meanings in today's world.
I've actually asked him to hang out a few months ago and he legit thought I was hitting on him. Or maybe that was just him giving me a hard time. UGH!
Guys are so confusing but then again girls are confusing to guys too. If we just stopped confusing each other, maybe everything would be a lot easier.
