Friendly but odd?

My colleague comes to my desk often and chats. He sits on the other side of the office. Some things he wants to discuss can be quickly done over email. Sometimes he can be very over-sharing and wants to work with me on projects (that he could easily work with others) but sometimes he won’t say hi. Is he just friendly and a bit odd? This has been happening for several years, but now that we are in the office, it’s more noticeable.

What's your AIBU?

Lots of people have differences in the way they prefer to interact due to neurodivergence.

I'd probably just take his lead on whether he wants to chat or not on any given day.

Because he’s married, other colleagues have commented that I am getting better treatment. He’s more senior. I think he’s just friendly but I do find the behaviour a bit odd.
