over-friendliness
I am basically a very friendly gal...I connect best on a one-to-one basis. So it is no surprise to me that when colleagues leave the school, they will somehow tell me that I was the first teacher to approach them when they were new. Currently, one new teacher regards me as her best friend.
However, this over friendliness may be misconstrued by some. I still rememember when I was first posted to one school. This male teacher will always come over to my desk for a chat..so I welcome him and we get along fine until one day, he found out that I was attached. He must have thought I was leading him on. Sigh....and then the friendliness between us just dissipated.
Treasure your current friends, especially if you have some platonic ones!

sometimes without meaning to, we give hope to the other party, until they find out that the situation is otherwise and can't see past that to remain good friends... *sigh*
