I think I am more charming then I intend to be, because people seem to think I'm flirting with them...or interested in them, when I'm really not. With a sassy, sardonic, dry sense of humor that most people don't get, its just...I made a coworker uncomfortable yesterday and I didn't mean to. He picked on me, so I picked on him later in the night and suddenly he got embarrassed and the assistant manager said, "I think you're making him uncomfortable."

I was only putting him on the spot for joking about calling me "Shakes" or "Shakey" because of my seizure symptoms. Making it clear I was only kidding about taking offense...or I thought that was clear. I feel really badly, about making him uncomfortable, I never thought me picking on him would do that. He's one of those guys who is very careful around me and polite. As if I'm delicate...but they were talking about stripper names, so I thought I'd join in about those nicknames. It wasn't out of context or anything. But maybe because I'm naturally feminine, soft and charming, it made him blush. I just feel like I did something wrong and I shouldn't have loosened up and let my guard down. What if I get fired for making someone uncomfortable?

Is anyone else disarmingly charming? I don't even mean to be, its part of my personality. People are always describing me and darling and charming. Is this a common trait among bipolar people? I know its characteristic of some personality disorders.
