Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. 🙂 I don’t actually think she likes me in that way, but sometimes we have those moments where I think “hmmm?”, but I don’t think I should pursue it anymore. I was really down at work and was thinking of calling her later and that today is the day I am going to tell her I like her and that I know she does not see me that way so it’s best if we stop talking for good or maybe i’ll reconnect many years later if you suddenly crossed my mind.

I’ve got no idea how she would handle that, but I told a guy at my work this who knows her well and he said for me not to do this because she has a lot going on with her ex, her kids, job, mother, her fitness class. Be her friend, nobody else phones her up and asks what’s happening, just you and that means a lot to a woman and you’re her only link to her old job here and last thing she needs to think about is another thing on her plate right now, wait until she’s happy and has things more in control before you ask her this. Work on getting into shape and getting right in the head and maybe when she’s ready she will want to try you out, but don’t expect anything. She’s going to love your mug you’re getting her, just keep phoning her and don’t worry if she does not phone you, she’s really busy but she will appreciate you calling her because nobody else does and start making plans with her more. He also told me “I know you don’t get out much but try and find interesting things to talk about so the phone conversations last longer and more interesting”.

Well not word for word but most of that. Anyway see you after Xmas.
