I don’t love anyone, but I definitely did like you. If you didn’t feel the same why not just say you’re not interested, instead of going on about how busy you are, everyone knows no one is that busy. You’re so much older, yet so indirect, I guess being straight forward isn’t your thing. I didn’t really know you that well, but I did like visiting with you. A relationship was probably not possible, a kiss, maybe? —Some Girl

That can be so frustrating, OB.
Especially if you’re the type that analyzes the shit out of everything!
Just move on. They’re obviously not interested. The only thing you’re going to accomplish by keeping the torch lit is chipping away at your dwindling dignity.
Did you ever think that the reason he’s so busy is because he has a girlfriend. lol. Single people really need to background checks now adays.
Maybe a workplace rule forbidding him from dating you.He enjoyed watching your heart be torn apart, every time you met.He didn’t want to tell you he couldn’t date you.
…Assuming you have a professional relationship with him.
Did you visit with him or did he visit with you?…Maybe he is concerned about keeping up with a younger woman. Do you have the same title or is one of you a different rank?…Maybe you have to make a move if he ranks below you. Maybe he worries about getting fired if he ranks above you. Maybe he wants you but his life is crazy and he doesn’t want to drag you into it until it settles. Maybe he has been pretty transparent about how he feels but has not gotten the same transparency in return… Maybe you could provide just a bit more of a hint that he would recognize this post as his….LOL
wow since when did something so simple as liking another person become so complicated. i think he is just not into me, and now i will just forget about it. Theres no professional relationship. I just feel like an idiot.
