He said why does it matter what people think or say you care? I said it depends would y’all care why he make it seem like it’s not a big deal

Ah man, that's a weird situation. On one hand, doesn't really mean anything to grab the dude a soda since he paid you back, ya know? But I get why you'd be conscious of what other people might say, especially if he's got a girl already.

Honestly bro seems kind of inconsiderate of your feelings to be like "who cares what people think." Like, it's easy for him to say that cuz it probably wouldn't effect him the same way. But rumors could start messing with you at work.

I'd say just trust your gut on it. If you really don't wanna deal with any crap from others, might be better to avoid even small favors like that. Or you could grab it this time since he paid, but maybe make it clear you don't wanna set a precedent of always doing stuff for him.

At the end of the day, you gotta look out for number one and not compromise your reputation over some small thing. His girl might not care either, but some chicks at work might start drama for no reason, ya feel? Just do what feels right to you.

Why would you say that to him in the first place? Flirting with a guy who is taken is gross.
