I don't think this relationship is serious because he never talks about her. Other guys talk about their significant other, even the gay ones. He doesn't say anything about her not even to other people.
Well if he didn't say anything about her to you, and only you. You might have something there, but since it's everyone I don't know. It could be one of two things. A. He likes to keep his work life and private life seperate. Or 2. He actually isn't happy with the way things are going and doesn't like to talk about it.
I had been having some trouble with my computer and I asked him for some help because he had helped me before. I even gave him my gmail. He e-mailed me back but not to my gmail. it.
How long did it take before he Emailed you? I mean after you gave him the addy was it hours, days, weeks. What?
I later apologized to him for bugging him with non-work related computer stuff and he replied that I could ask him technical questions whenever I needed. Oh well that's good enough for now.
Does he do this for everyone? Or does he seem to be going out of his norm in order to help you?
Now to go and create some more problems on my laptop. HA HA I am only kidding.
If you want I'll send you my CPU. It's got enough bugs and errors in it to keep him emailing you for months. Hell he might even have to come over and look at it in person. And in return you can buy me a new one with your big Librarian checks.
