I was wrong.

I wanted so much for all those odd coincidences w/ Tom to mean something. Unfortunately, they did not. Yesterday, my co-workers took it upon themselves to stage an intervention. One of them said, "This Tom P. thing ends today." Apparently Tom isn't into dating people that he works with. Technically, we don't work together, but our jobs are associated with each other. I previousy heard this from one of the girls at our gym. She stated that he said he doesn't date women who go to the places he goes because it could end badly and he wouldn't be able to go there anymore. In my situation he said it would probably end badly. I can see his point. A wise woman told me that you shouldn't get your honey where you make your money. I almost felt like he was worth the risk. Oh well. Eventually, I hope to figure out his exact purpose in my life. Things like that don't happen without a reason. I will settle for building a friendship with him for now or making the best of our working relationship.
