I heard that this guy at work is interested in me, and I feel the same towards him but we are not yet going out just to make it clear. We are just often linked together. At first when I was still not aware of this, my boss was one of those who are making ways to link us together or find a way for the guy and myself to work together. My boss brings topic about this guy all the time and builds him up, says a lot of nice things etc. There were times when she asks me if this guy has a chance with me etc.
Lately, all she says about the guy are nasty things, she even told me not to like him anymore, she says he's difficult to talk to. That he may know that I like him. She's telling me this because, she's my friend and always on my side. My boss is clearly discouraging me from the guy. That she also thinks that the guy doesn't want to teased to me.
Every time I get to talk to this guy, he is always pleasant and initiates small talks whenever possible. This guy is very nice and smart. I am not even going out with this guy. Why is she suddenly making an issue about this? What's her point of doing this to me?
Most work places frown on interworker relationships, due to the threat of someone going postal if the relationship sours, your boss may know more about this guy than she can let on, however if she did say something to the effect of him being that way, word gets she told you, then future boyfriend could possible come back on the company, also she could be wanting to be vindictive for some reason.
I think one of two things is running down here, either your boss started to feel something (likeness may be) for that guy or she has seen or heard something really bad about him and she doesn't want you to get hurt!
Try to ask her why she is doing this! Demand for an answer for her strange acts, then you may get an answer for this :-)
Maybe she's torn between being a boss and a friend. At times it's difficult to separate our personal lives from our professional ones. I think it was unprofessional of her to try to play matchmaker with her subordinates in the first place, but your best bet would be to just talk to her and see what she meant. Maybe she is developing feelings for him, who knows what her motives are? Good luck either way hun. I hope it works out for you!
I agree with kenzo. Clearly she's trying to deter you from him and you should demand to know why. It's odd that she wouldn't just come clean with the whole truth and nothing but. Keep us posted!

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
Ah. Well honestly I'm HORRIBLE at the whole dating thing, and my dates have always gone completely miserable, but hmm.. The prefect date would have to be something fun and relaxing. No dressing up or any of that crap, just like jeans and a t-shirt for attire? If the date goes well it would end with a kiss. =]
Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
Well, I tend to talk a lot when I'm nervous. Probably a little too much =] Haha.
