Wisecrack Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 As uni students in the same class we were both really close - mutual admiration but never friends. We both recently became single and as such, the flirting intensified. This culminated in a party held by a class mate one night. Everyone was just casually relaxing but we were the ones getting 'touchy'. Hands finding every opportunity to grasp one another and giving out massages. We were as a group, discussing out dating life and she was trying to find out what type of girl was my type all the while mentioning she's never dated someone older before (I'm older than her). At the end of the night when she left, she gave no one but me a good long hug where I lifted her up. I think people would have noticed us. Days after the party when I caught up with her before class, she went to give me a hug although I was only going to play with her hair (our little joke). Miscommunication again and bad schedules meant we could not go out on our planned outing to buy christmas presents together. That same day of the hug, she became distant with me too. No more flirting, awkward and if we needed to talk, things were straight to the point. Because of that I backed off myself (although I am not sure maybe I was the one acting a bit odd too?). Next day, same thing. I'd catch her staring at me every now and then. It was not until the latter part of the day she started trying to talk to me. Still no teasing etc but. I over heard her talking to a friend about whether she should 'talk to him' and going quiet when I walked past (maybe the ex is back?). When our group said our good byes, I overheard her again talking to another friend about how well built I am. It's been a hectic week but, I know she has been up til midnight with work all the while studying and adding family christmas time stuff. Honestly at the beginning of things I may have been the one pushing for friendship calling her my 'break up buddy' because we both became single at the same time and discussed our rebounds and love life together. But after the party when I got to know her better, I actually want to pursue something now but just do not know whats going on. I was going to ask her out until she started acting stranger around me.
ExpatInItaly Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 Either I've got strong deja vu, or you've already posted about this but used different details and a different context. I read and replied to a previous thread about co-workers / work Christmas party in which the same events happened. Was that you? If so, why change the context? Which is true?
