Quick Question...
Alright, this one threw me for a loop. I'm moving from the Boston branch of Deloitte to New York City after New Years, and something very interesting has happened in the meantime. Last week I had a "good bye" conversation with kind of a special woman in the office, who I often joked with and teased when we were together. There was a playful relationship that was never really dwelled upon because I didn't see her on a day to day basis, so it was never really on my mind. Most of my co-workers said she would give me one of those 200 watt smiles, laugh longer at my jokes and go out of her way to say hello to me. Anyway, the most recent conversation consisted of me signing out where she slipped an "I think you should just stay in Boston where it's safe. You can work with me on my projects..." as a joke. But, I don't know if it was really a joke. She insinuated on me seeing her again before I left and she contacted my best friend who worked with me daily and told him to make sure I came back once more before my move.
Personally, I think its one of these "absence makes the heart grow fonder things"...just the standard, "I'll miss your company" things. What do you guys think? What should I do?
"So tonight, when you're wondering what to say, or how you look, or whether or not she likes you, just remember, she is already out with you. That means she said yes when she could have said no. That means she made a plan when she could have just blown you off. So that means it is no longer your job to try to make her like you. It is your job not to mess it up."
