A colleague quit today. I wasn't particularly surprised since she's another one liberated from her bondage. It seems a few of my colleagues already knew about it earlier. It's not that I'm eager for such news but I wonder if I really am emotionally detached compared to the other girls. It's probably not a big deal and I'm just overanalyzing other's responses towards me.
But I was also the last to know about a few other colleagues who were in a relationship with people around the company. Rationally, I could attribute some of it to my lack of interest in gossip. I'm not really interested in who's with who and who did what. If they wanted me to know, they would have said it themselves right? And if they wanted to hide, I wouldn't bother to pry.
I may be grasping on straws but cumulatively the evidence seems to suggest that I'm not someone that people normally talk to. Is it really true that I'm emotionally distant?

I don't think you're emotionally distant per se. But how "accessible" you are to people and the information flow, and if you tend to do more things with your colleagues, e.g. smoke together, gossip at the water cooler together, go for lunch together etc. then you'll be more privy to the news flow. x
