This is going to sound odd. It was recently brought to my attention by a former co-worker that a guy who used to be my supervisor, now a supervisor in a different area, may like me more than I think he does. She knows him outside of work, from highschool. We had a phone convo, wherein I said he was being a jackass and she stuck up for him and said "He cares more than you know" I asked her what that meant and she listing stuff off for me. He asked for me to be moved to his area some years ago, he always stood behind me at work to watch me work(always made me nervous), he asked questions about what she and I talked about, he talked about me outside of work, he talked about my kids(but none of this to ME at work), when we had a restructuring going on,he took me aside for a certain job that had direct contact with him daily, he worried about me when I became pregnant again with my fourth child, he called my husband(who also worked at the same company) an ass for different reasons she wouldn't elaborate on, when he came into the small office I shared with her he sat behind me but would only talk to her, and when our jobs moved to another facility he fought to keep me in his department even though I didn't want to be. I never thought about it. I'm married and he was until about 15 months ago. This stuff has been going on over the course of about 9 yrs though. Now at work, i do see him. My job is such that I might have to have interactions with him daily. I don't know why she felt she had to tell me these things, but I'm uncomfortable now around him and I avoid him like the plague. He doesn't go out of his way to talk to me very often. I do occasionally feel like I'm being watched and when I look up, it's him. They still talk so I'm unsure if she has told him what she told me. I've known her for almost as long. How do I deal with this? Just keep avoiding him? Do these things mean he's interested in me?
