<human>: Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell

I have worked with this person in a restaurant for about 6 months while I go to school.

Me and a few other people at work are close friends and hang out after work and such.

Me and my friends have gone out for drinks with this person occasionally with the other people he knows at work (big restaurant).

Lately this person has been trying to be my friend more and more and has gotten to know my other friends better.

I don't care if they know my other friends and such, but I just can't get myself to like this person myself.

I don't know what it is, he is a nice person, but I just can't get myself to like them. Maybe its me feeling like we have not much in common, or just the fact that I feel like I wouldn't enjoy their company.

This makes me feel like an asshole, and I hate just brushing someone off like that.

I am an introvert and don't have many friends, but I feel like an ass and such a stuck up person if I have a hard time making friends as it is to just brush someone off so fast.

I get worried that if my other friends find out that I don't really like this person without reason they'll think I'm a jerk and judge me for it.

I know this sounds so childish but its happening to me and I want to understand it better.

My girlfriend said to just see what happens naturally and maybe the other person will realize your not a match. It just takes so much effort for me to get to know someone, that if I don't feel a connection right away its easier for me to just move on.
<bot>: Coworker trying to be my friend, I just don't feel like I like them all that much, makes me feel bad that I don't like them, scared it makes me an asshole.
