Since I have been there, he seems nervous around me. He stumbles over his words, and talks a lot. The one thing he does constantly is apologize to me for very insignificant things. These are things like bumping into me by accident at work, and not saying hello. Even when he was talking to me the first day we met during my interview, he apologized for chatting away about himself. A few days later, he apologize for not being around when I had orientaion.Recently, he apologized for stepping on my toe. He said it was not his intention to do so. In reality, he did not step on my toe. He tried to apologize to me for seeing him cleaning the floors at work. I did not reply. A few seconds later, I hear him screaming at the other workers to stop talking and get to work. This is becoming common. He is not apologetic to anyone else, new or old. He is more bossy with them and loud. I only see him a couple times a week. I barely speak to him. He usually tries to say something to me. One day when I was late for work, he called my cell and left a message about making sure I was ok. I had called a couple hours before that and left a message that I was going to be late. But his message said he got the message and that he wasn’t sure. Another worker did tell him what I said though. Is this strange?

 Just wondering why you would be so interested in his behavior towards you. If you aren't the slightest bit attracted to him I guess you should just chalk all this up to his being a rather odd duck.

Is he married? Are you currently in a relationship? Do you find him attractive in a romantic way?

I often wonder why he is this way. And one thing I know, he is NOT nervous around women. He doesnt act this way with other new employees. And still yesterday, he nerbously apologize again for something insigificant. And sneaking states at me when one of my male coworker and I are working close or talking.
