In which I talk to a squirrel and I think he (or she) understood me

So the funniest thing happened to me today. I was walking to my exam and I look down and I see this squirrel walking right towards me. It was weird because they usually run away when you get too close. But this one must not have seen me or something because he just kept walking until he was about a foot or so from me and then he started to turn around. And me, being the sensitive, concerned person that I am, I said to him "its okay" and he just turned back towards me and kept walking and we just walked past each other and went on with our lives. It was the coolest thing. It was like he understood me. And now he's telling all his squirrel friends that either he survived a brush with death or a human was actually nice to him and he wasn't scared. Or maybe I'm just a freak who talks to squirrels and thinks too much about their lives.
