Spending way too much time

posted November 26th, 2020 at 12:09 AM

wondering about the I Saw You people. Do they ever get together? Or are they just a bunch of lonely people desperately looking for connections in all the wrong places? Building up a casual comment or professional smile into something too big. I only wonder because I've been guilty of this - thinking someone really liked me, but they were just being polite. I hope those people are more aware and realistic than I was.

Some probably do, many likely don't

I'm sure it's hit and miss like every other way of connecting. Like the lottery, you have no chance at winning if you don't ever play.

Many chances lost

Looking back, one of my biggest regrets is that out of almost a year of chances, I never asked out/said anything of importance to this handsome contractor (curly hair, glasses) who worked near me. I never said anything because I was sad/anxious for many months because of my workload, and if I said anything and it backfired, I would have seen him around the hallways and cafeteria and it would've been awkward. We're both younger than our coworkers and have completely different jobs. I haven't seen him since last year. If I ever see him in the future I'll tell him "I always thought you were cute". Who cares if this sounds creepy lol jk. I hope he's doing well. I never even asked his name, and I actually had the chance early last year. Frick. Oh well. Single forever. I could almost write a cheesy eBook about this. I haven't liked anyone since and am currently focusing on saving money to move out on my own.
