Thinking about ending my relationship with my guy

I’m not really into T as much as I originally thought before we started dating. He’s a great guy but in the long run, seemed more of a brother than anything else. We always got along when we were younger; which is why we got along fine now. It doesn’t really help that I’ve been secretly crushing on one of the associates at the company my temp agency works for; ok so he’s really the “captain” (boss) for one of the shifts. We’ll call him “A”.

Anyways, whenever A and his shift works the day shifts (the shifts I work 99.9 % of the time), he hunts me down and always talks with me a bit. Or sometimes in passing, he’s got a big ass smile and waves at me. The one time in passing, I’m walking somewhere with a female coworker of mine and there’s A with a big ass smile and waves. I smile, wave and say hello.

Sometimes, there’s a misunderstanding. Here’s an example:

“A”, she says. “Were you waving at me or her (meaning me)?”

“Sorry XYZ, I was waving at Deppgrl. It was pretty obvious.” He says

“A, you don’t need to be rude,” I say winking to let him know I was teasing. “We all know how much you love me!”

A turns beat red and then laughs.

Not too long ago, one of A’s operators was giving me a hard time when A wasn’t around. A smiled and waved as he passed by. All I could do was smile and nod back in greeting. He stopped for a second and then came over. He asked what was wrong and I said nothing. He kept asking what was wrong until I told him that I felt that his one operator was giving me a hard time. A kinda hid in the corner as the operator came back from break. I was doing my own thing and all of a sudden he gave me a hard time for cleaning. I explained that since I’m with the temp agency, there are certain things I can and cannot do; one of the things I cannot do is make an attempt to fix the machines on my own – I can ask an operator if I can help and they have to decide if they’ll have me help or not help.

A overheard this transaction (of course) and started giving the operator hell for assuming that I’d be willing to risk my job by trying to fix the machine without the approval AND supervision of one of the associates/operators. After A giving this guy hell, he’s pretty much left me alone

Then there are kinda funny stories about A. I’ll share one of them with you. So I was working in an area where there’d be peanuts (out of their shells) and I’d have to inspect them as they went down the conveyor belt. We shut the line down around 11 am and then I went upstairs to get my next assignment. It ended up I had to go the far side of the plant to speak with D. He said to change my uniform (due to being covered in peanut particle) and go to lunch before I get sent over to see “M” – another operator.

While in the cafeteria, I see A but really don’t talk to him. He comes over and says where he wants me to work the one line I was sent to work at until the end of the shift but the machine was down so I assisted operators with cleaning, organizing, taking out the garbage and/or recycling.

I finally went on my last break and was in the break room. A came inside to talk to me about focusing a little more on the cleaning of one line (it wasn’t working properly and was making a huge mess when it stopped working). As he was talking, he kept gesticulating/talking with his hands. One if his operators said that I should hold A’s hands so no one gets dizzy and no one gets hit!! I turn a deep red and A turns slightly pink. It was pretty funny.
