bolase Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Loveshack please help me out...I am not sure if I'm just going crazy or whether there is something here. My new intern has just started with us. We have similar interests and personalities and we get on very well, but we don't work closely together (I delegate stuff for him to do - I am not actually his boss, we have the same boss). I'm 29 (female) he is 23. He is shy in person, doesn't say much at all, but has been texting me a LOT (I mostly reply) and even suggested some stuff we could do outside work. I'm wondering if he does have a crush of sorts or if he is bored of things outside the internship (low study hours, low work hours)and/or wanting to hang out and talk about our interests. I think he has some anxiety issues. We don't flirt, just banter a little, mostly through text. I think he's super cute though I don't think he is right for me (besides the work conflict) as he is a little immature. If he wasn't interning with us I would totally go out with him to test the waters though. Advice appreciated Thanks! PS To reiterate I am not his boss! Link to post Share on other sites
TaraMaiden Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 So let me get this straight: You don't flirt, you banter. He's not right for you, as he's a little immature. If he wasn't an intern you'd go out with him to "test the waters" (WTF??)... What are you asking, exactly..........? And what was the big announcement? Link to post Share on other sites
Author bolase Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Ha....I'm really not sure, I'm confused. Attracted etc but the immaturity is a barrier. It was a bit personal to post here but I'll message you, thanks for asking. Link to post Share on other sites
TaraMaiden Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Maybe you could just accept one of the 'weekend' suggestions and see how you guys get on... Age needn't be a barrier.... but keep an eye on his 'anxiety issues'.... you know, he may just be a bit shy and nervous about approaching you... Edit PS: Thanks for your PM. Cool!

Author bolase Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 Cheers Also thank you, I did take him up on a casual dinner which was really nice. He still texts and messages me a lot and I'm not sure if he's interested or not. It's sweet, I'm not going to be making any moves though. Link to post Share on other sites
