My male coworker is uncomfortable around me
I’ve been cold to him because he’s BFF with a woman who dislikes me therefore I don’t trust him.
He’s tried to make conversations with me in the past and I admit I’ve been aloof for this reason and I leave him alone because I feel I make him uncomfortable.
Today I spoke with him about a work question and his body and feet were pointed away from me, he tugged at his collar and stroked his throat. He’s always fidgeting around me. We sit less than a foot away from each other.
I know he dislikes me and I’m partly to blame but I don’t know how to make things more bearable between us? 750
