There is this older guy that I know that always has compliments for me , he is always making up a reason to be near me , and he also happens to be my BOSS . He makes it so obvious that i m not the only one that notices it . Wellthe other day we were talking and I asked him if he felt old(because it was his 50th birthday ) .

Question: Why is the speaker 's boss so determined to get close to them and spend extra time around them ?
Answer: He wants to know just how the speaker is able to have such sales success and is snoopingHe suspects that the speaker has been stealing company secrets and is trying to catch themHe is planning to replace the speaker and is trying to figure out what the new employee will need to doHe is romantically interested in the speaker and is trying to make this clear , and is motivated by it as well
