So I've had this optometrist I've seen a few times, and his behavior puzzles me.
Here are some things that have really thrown me off:
1) After exam, he gave me his hand to help me up from chair (didn't need help)
2) He's looked me up and down a couple of times, quite slowly actually
3) When I was getting my prescription glasses at counter, he interrupted his exam with another patient and came out to quickly ask how I was doing as I was walking by.
My last check-up:
1) We talked quite a bit about our personal lives (our colleges, phobias, etc). We laughted quite a bit, and what should have been a quick 10 minute exam for him turned out to be almost an hour of mostly talking about our lives. He even joked, "okay let's get to the exam"
2) He talked about his religious background and even asked what my family's background was (he thought I was his same religious background?).
3) After exam, he walked me out to reception and introducted me to the front desk women. The front desk women kept looking back and forth at us a little confused.
4) He kept steady eye contact and very dilated pupils.
5) When he walked to the back, even though he was talking to someone, he kept looking at me as I was at the counter.
I know he's not married. He told me how much he loves living on his own....
I'm intrigued and I like him because we seem to have so much in common, but I don't know what to do or if I'm really reading into it too much or if he's just being nice. Whadda you think?
Just wondering what the ettiquette is of getting to know him? I'm too chicken to do anything about it, but I'd like to at least be friends. BTW...we are around the same age.
