“Awwwee you’re so sweet” a co worker told me that. So long story short. I saw my co worker asking other co workers for medicine like for an upset stomach, so the following day I asked her if she’s feeling better. I didn’t stutter when I said “are you feeling better?” But she looked so confused and asked me what am I talking about. That’s when I panicked and stutter badly. What I wanted to say without stuttering is “yesterday I saw you looking for medicine and you were asking people” but I butchered that so badly with my stuttering. It took her a good minute to understand what I was talking about, and she said “oh! You saw me looking for medicine yesterday, that was for my friend. He ate hot Cheetos and it upset his stomach” .. she paused and then let out “awww you’re so sweet!” And a guy turned around and kinda gave me a nod like if I rizzing her up lol he said something like “you gotta teach me” something like that lol
