Hi,
I just wanted to talk about weird people that I encounter and ask is it me, or does this happen to other people too?
When I go to work, I have a few colleagues that I see daily, we don't really chat everyday (although have chatted to them on a few occassions), however, we see each other in passing daily, like literally walk past each other. Most of my colleagues are friendly and we say hi, or give a warm smile but there's a handful of colleagues that are utterly bizarre. They sometimes say hi, but most of the time ignore me and just walk past.
This morning, I went into a room to collect something, and a colleague who I have chatted to before was sat in the room alone, she just looked at me, made eye contact and looked the other direction so fast, so I kind of just said morning cheerfully, and she just gave an awkward smile. She's always like this with me, stares from a distance at me but never wants to chat or say hi. Why stare at me when you don't want to acknowledge me?!! She literally sees me and looks down when she walks past.
Another colleague, walks away whenever I join in a conversation if there's someone I know, for example, and I join in the conversation, this woman will just walk off, literally walk off without saying anything. Or she will see me and directly and then look down and walk away.
It makes me feel like there's something wrong with me, but I just can't figure it out.
Maybe they've gossiped about me and don't like me. I don't know. I'm a friendly, sociable kind of person. Can strike up a conversation with most people comfortably. I'm well dressed, always smiley, don't have a moody face. I'm not sure why they do this and I know I shouldn't give two hoots but on a day to day basis, it does affect you when grown women behave like this.
Bizarre.
