Question

The other day @ work a guy I used to go to school with came in. He's a Capricorn. He's not one I've ever mentioned on the boards. He was a friend of mine, but not someone I considered a close friend, just because he was a bit of a druggie in high school and our groups of friends were different. So we really didn't "hang out", but we talked to each other @ school and smoked together (that's cigarettes, thank you. lol) on breaks and things like that. The thing is, in school for the longest time, everyone was telling me "he is in love with you", blah blah blah. Everyone. Except him, of course. lol. I didn't really pay a lot of attention to it, because I didn't want to make him more nervous around me. I never considered him a romantic possibility. He just wasn't my type. He did start calling me a lot, but somehow I think I sort of bowed out of our friendship, he just had this tendency of weirding me out because of his unusual quietness. (Makes talking on the phone kind of difficult when the other person is so shy)

And he really is a *nice* guy. But I always felt there was something weird about him (and in high school, I was completely and totally not physically attracted to him in any way at all whatsoever). He doesn't say much, but he can be funny, and he'll say things every now and then that are kind of poignant, personal things that I didn't think he'd picked up on about me...anyway, he got a lot taller since senior year, and he's not a bad looking guy now. Which has nothing to do with anything, except that the other day I was like, "wow", when he came in. He needed a bunch of advice, so I gave it to him (although I was frazzled so I had to get help from a co-worker! lol, I hate it when cute guys ask me stuff, because that's always when I sound like an idiot, it's awful. lol)...so anyway, he says, "do you remember my name?" and I said, "yeah, it's (his name)". He said, "what happened to you after high school? You kind of disappeared." I said, "yeah. Long story. So anyway, about this shampoo..." lol, we laughed.

Then later he called my work to ask me some more questions, and then later he came in again, this time with a friend. And wanted to do something completely different with his hair. So I got him everything he needed, etc.

I guess I don't really know whether I should trust my intuition that he might be a little weird, or whether I should loosen up about him a little. I have a feeling he's going to want to hang out or something the next time he comes in.

We are the root of all that is evil and unholy in this world, you should stay far away form those of us born under Capricorn!

On a lighter note, it seems that you've had reservations before about him. Perhaps you should evaluate those and see if they still apply to him. He could have changed since the time you knew him last, but usually people don't change they just get better at hiding things.

Capricorn Guy

Think you capricorn guy for pointing out to everyone that we are evil and perhaps the antichrist,
