Why Do We Do This To Eachother?

Hey Ya'll,
You know something? I don't know if it's just me, but things are just plain 'ole weird sometimes with Jesse and I that I just wish to just bring things to a halt just so that all of the haze of confusion can settle down. Some days, my perception can be out of whack at times. On Friday (our day off), we both arrived at the store at the same time. He showed up to use his employee discount to get a couple of 2 liter Cokes while I showed up to get my paycheck. As I was coming in the store, he glanced at me, but was talking to our manager. I came in the store and went straight into the back to get my check. One of my co-workers came into the back to talk to me, but as I was signing for my check, Jesse had left the store. I then took it as him avoiding me, so I jokingly sent him a text saying, "Oh okay, well I didn't see you either!" Then I added a smiley face with it's tongue sticking out. The next day, he came to me and started explaining that he honestly didn't see me. I told him it wasn't a big deal because I added a smiley-face on text message. I then wondered if he could even see the emotion-cons with the texts. Saturday was a very stressful day for him because he really had to hustle due to making pizzas for a very large order for a Reggae Festival. I desperately wanted to help him and I told him to call on me if he needed anything. (I was there for him.)He was really hustling and I answered the phones along with taking the pizzas out of the ovens to cut and box them. He utilized my help, but later on he was so stressed out that he kind of avoided me or we'd avoid eachother. When ever we see one having a conversation with another person, one would simply walk away respectfully. It's not that I don't like him, I love him, but I don't know what comes over me to have me walk away instead of joining in the interaction. It's like how a quarter works, you can only have one side at a time, so when one is present, the other holds his head down. I just don't know anymore because it makes me act weird with him at work. This isn't just me either, he does it too. At times when he's talking to me, I get easily distracted. When i'm around, he stands somewhere to be out of my line of sight. Times before he use to stand in my line of sight. It's all making my head spin. I think I'm going to call out of work this Saturday, because he works on that day. I need a break.(Sigh.)

Gee girl hi! Theres alot going on there. Maybe you do need a break, but dont lose a days pay in the process.
I think u 2 need to sit and really put your feelings or thoughts on the table. You can't be working together, and both be bugging out.. If you can't work together and act normal, and not feel awkward, then you need to look into that to.
Relationships are hard enuff, and when you work together, its even harder, theres no space and your emotions probably show
on your sleeve. You and him both gotta get a grip on the sutuation, and settle it once and for all. If its that deep that u don't want to show up at work when he is there, you really got deal with this and settle it, one way or the other. I'm here for support if u need it. You can alwaysd pm me. Peace & Prayer.. Hang In there, this too shall pass.. 🙂
