JoeNewbie Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 Last week was our company summer event and we all gathered for a few drinks and finger food. I've been midly flirting with a colleague of mine and was looking forward to seeing her in a more relaxed setting. After a slow start, she sat next to me and we ended up talking quite a bit. She ended up asking me what I think of her. I thought that was a trick question and hesitatedquite a bit before answering. I ended up telling her she's really pretty. She then pointed some of our colleagues and said that they were sexier than her. I insisted she was the prettiest by far and she just smiled. We agreed we will hang out again although I haven't asked her out on a date or anything. It was our first semi-personal interaction and I'd like to take things slow. Does it seem to you like she's interested?

Star Gazer Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 The only guys I ask what they think of me are purely platonic. I would NEVER ask a guy I was interested in what he thought of me.

No, it's a rather bold sign that you're in the Friend Zone. She likes somebody else, and she's using you as a litmus test to gauge how attractive she is.
OpenBook Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 That being said, she'd be an idiot not to at least give you a chance.

Interesting answer and I must say I agree with you. She was drunk when she popped that question though. I think she was afraid I'd perceive her as a slut because of the way she dresses.

I must admit no one has ever asked me a direct question like this, friend or girlfriend. I viewed her question as an opportunity to open up but perhaps I was wrong.
