What does this mean?
-
Had a cycling accident yesterday; sent two smses to two different people; one, my gf, another a close colleague whom i ran into just before starting my ride.
response from gf: "why so clumsy? fall again!"
response from colleague: "Hey, what happened? are you alright?" followed by a phone call when i didn't reply.
Am i looking too much into this incident? -

It's quite obvious only one person showed more concern for you.Originally posted by 32T_Sprocket:Had a cycling accident yesterday; sent two smses to two different people; one, my gf, another a close colleague whom i ran into just before starting my ride.

And i believe your definition of "close colleague" means something more...
The answer is clear... -
i would say the same thing to my boy
but i do care probably more than he knoes
-
Yes, you think too much.....
Sometimes when people show concern, it's not necessarily because they REALLY care but rather because they feel that they have a duty to do so, as a acquaintance, as a colleague or whatever. -
Still, caring (whether duty or not) is better than not caring.Originally posted by MooKu:Yes, you think too much.....

Both are concerning abt u don u see -
U obviously want us to say tt the colleague cares right.
-
I would say that the collegue provided the standard answers and reactions.
I get those calls/sms all the time.
My primary concerns for such people, be it friends or relative or colleguesand strangers are always:
'Are they okay. Do they need help. Am I anywhere near them to provide some help. Or what is the best option to help them if I cannot physically be there; call someone nearer to respond to them.'
And Yep, I think the thread starter think too much into it. -
Both care, just that they have a different way of showing it. The way I see it, you seem more comfortable or more able to understand the way your colleague expresses concern.Originally posted by 32T_Sprocket:Had a cycling accident yesterday; sent two smses to two different people; one, my gf, another a close colleague whom i ran into just before starting my ride.

You may be thinking too much, but if this is just one thing among others, then it's a different. -
your colleague is female?
-
haha if I am a girlfriend I would also joke joke and say so clumsy, fall again? after that on the phone or what then ask hows the fall. if my colleage tell me he fall I will say are you alright? because he is someone I not close to so have to act concern abit.
.
Maybe now u are feeling that the concern she give u is not enough, its very common as the relationship become longer. u must let her know ba -

-
at least none of them replied, "why do i care?"
-

The gf just replied via sms and promptly forgot about it.
The Close Colleague, asked again today and even brought iodine lotion.

sms to gf, to "report" -
