Regantlowes Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I have been talking to someone from work for over a year; I know he likes me. Over quarantined, we started working from home. I decided to give him. my phone number to keep the connection going; I said if I don't receive a reply, I will assume I misinterpret our relationship. He never replied. I moved on, a month after that, he happens to be at the same public place. I was there first; he must have seen I was there. He tried twice to approach me. I ignored him and treated him like I did not know him. He seemed upset by my reaction. Why would he want to come to me if he never reaches out? Did he ghost me? Link to post Share on other sites
Wiseman2 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 He wanted to keep it professional. Do the same. Be polite and keep collegial. Date outside of work. Have you tried dating apps? Link to post Share on other sites
glows Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 He tried to approach you because he probably knows you from your workplace. No, I don't think he ghosted you. You didn't have anything between the both of you to ghost from. He might have forgotten about your number that day or misplaced it or just wasn't feeling it. Try not to overthink this. In future just stay friendly and cordial with all your coworkers if you see them in person. Link to post Share on other sites

Well that's a really mature response on your behalf. What's wrong with the buttons on your phone, they don't dial out? Why didn't you call him? Link to post Share on other sites
ShyViolet Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 You obviously care enough about him to be making this post about him, so then why did you ignore him when you saw him? You're the one sending him very mixed messages. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Author Regantlowes Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 I don't have his number. He could have easily sent me an email saying he misplaced my number. I ignored him because I felt I was ghosted. Link to post Share on other sites

Just leave it for now and say hi the next time there's a company gathering or meeting, in-person or online. You both are bound to bump into each other, right? Link to post Share on other sites

You're just two co-workers. Did you show him any type of romantic interest? Doesn't really seem like you put forth much effort to seem interested IMO, just that you thought he'd chase you and he didn'tt. Link to post Share on other sites
