Guitarisgood Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 There is this girl whom I've known for a while. Things have been hot and cold between the both of us. So I popped into her work one day (just your normal shop) to buy something and there we were standing face to face, tension building and I gave her a throwaway compliment that I normally do - noticed she had a lovely shade of lipstick on. She gave the usual woman babble then walked away. I don't get this, normally when I compliment woman, interest shown or not, they'll stand by and we'll continue on with our conversation or flirting. Was she wierded out by this? Furthermore later that night I sent her a message and normally she will reply within the minute but I am still yet to hear from her. I do like her but I do know that she may not be as interested in me so it's not like I put all my eggs in one basket with her hence I flirt without a thought with her and we normally enjoy it and take it for what it is - light banter.
GemmaUK Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Maybe she had work to do? Compliments are nice but not really a conversation starter, I think she would have felt a bit odd telling you about her lipstick and where she got it from (which could be what would happen if a woman complimented her on it).
Author Guitarisgood Posted April 5, 2014 Author Posted April 5, 2014 You creeped her out Nah, this is how we normally are. We work in a very chilled setting where everyone works hard and as such, has enough spare time and are allowed to relax and chat. She'd come past as did the other girls initially to have a chat (I was serving myself). In the past we'd exchange compliments, tease each other etc hence why how she was today was so different.
Mrin Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 She probably thinks you're gay now. Next time ask her what facial cleanser she uses because her pores are amazing. Just kidding. Some people don't know how to take compliments so I wouldn't read too much into it.
d0nnivain Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 I would be a bit perplexed by a guy noticing my shade of lipstick & commenting on it. It's just not a guy thing to do. Even if she was OK with the compliment, since this exchange was at her work, I'd assume she had something to do & her departure wasn't about you at all.
