I find it odd...

that JT has this new friend from work, we'll call him Bob. Bob is the same age as us, single, lives at home with his parents, has zero bills, and wants to come over and cook us dinner one night because he thinks we're an "adorable couple", as he put it. I like this guy, he's nice, but I think this is really strange behavior for a man.Chat Icon

Maybe he is hoping you will see that he is a great guy and will then be willing to set him up with one of your friends???

maybe he just really enjoys cooking. I don't find it that odd, we've been to our single guy friends' houses for dinner.

Sine he lives with his parents, it makes sense he'd come to you.

NO! I wish he was, though because then I'd have someone perfect to set him up with! I have no single girlfriends. I guess I should make that clear to him!

Just that we barely know him. I am sure he is just a nice, friendly guy, but I just think it's odd. You know when something just doesn't sit right and you can't pinpoint why? That's how I feel about it.

Well, on the one hand, I don't find it odd, but if you are getting an off feeling in your gut, I think you should trust that. You know this guy, we don't.

Re: I find it odd...

I don't know, maybe I am just slow to warm up to people. I admit that I am overly suspicious of people who are "quick assimilators", as I call them. People who automatically feel like they are close friends with you. I have met this guy twice, I just feel creepy about someone who barely knows me cooking in my kitchen. But I guess since JT's been working with him for about a year, he knows him very well. It's probably just me and my own hesitance.

I don't think it's just you hesitating to warm up to him. I'm sure JT has other friends you felt comfortable with right away.

I agree if your gut feeling is telling you something is amiss...it is.

Re: I find it odd...

I asked JT before if he thinks this guy is gay, and he said the thought has crossed his mind that he might be, however, he really doesn't think so, and neither does their supervisor at work, who's gay, because he said if he was, he'd like to date himChat Icon
I don't know, I told JT that I think it's kind of odd, and he said he gets the sense that this guy has lots of friends to party with and drink with, but we're the only people he knows that are his age and married, and more low-key. He said if he thought it was really weird, he would of told the guy to get lost, but this is like his new "buddy" at work. They're going to some baseball games together, they've gone out drinking a couple of times with other people from work, etc., so he said it's not creepy, he just seems lonely.

Re: I find it odd...

To tell you the truth I am really not finding it odd. I say this only because around christmas time we were walking the dog and passed this very nice gay couples home who had 2 minuture dobermans. Simba loved playing with them. After talking outside for about an hour and discussing christmas decorations, the couple invited us into their home. Gave us the grand tour of their home and welcomed us like we've been friends for years.

I thought that was really odd.

A different time we're out hubby and I and we bump into a couple that lives around the corner from us. After 30 min of talking they invited us over for a Sunday brunch. Mind you this was the first time we met them.

To tell ya the truth their are just some really genuine friendly people out there. Chat Icon

Hmmmm first I thought he was gay then I thought not. Myabe hes gay and hes just hiding it or maybe hes just a really nice guy and he doesnt have many friends and he really likes JT and would like to spend time with him and his wife. You never know. Have the dinner and then reasses the situation if you still feel weird.

I would say go with your gut. However, maybe he doesn't have many friends his age and this is his way of trying to make you guys his friends.
