p90xdiva Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I have a question and need some input. I was at work today and had a few dresses in my office for an after-work party that we were having at work. A co-worker came in and asked me about my dresses, and I told her I wasn't sure because one of the dresses was a tiny bit big as I have lost weight. Without even asking me she tried on the dress and asked me to zip it up. I was floored and just gave her the dress because I was just so surprised she would try it on like that. I don't know why a person would do that, is it okay for me to be shocked? I don't know what to think about this. Link to post Share on other sites
rewl Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 As long as she gives it back, it's not really a big deal is it? I don't think you were planning to wear it. Link to post Share on other sites
Candy_Pants Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 She stripped down in your office and tried on your dress?? She obviously thinks you two are close. Are you? Link to post Share on other sites
melodicintention Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I probably would have been weirded out by someone doing that also. I've had some close coworkers in the past, but never could imagine one of them doing such a thing. It's personal to put on someones clothing, and can be kinda gross too. I get stressed bad if people simply touch my guitar much less pick it up, so I hear you about putting their body inside of your clean and personal clothing. Link to post Share on other sites
Author p90xdiva Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 I guess I just felt it was odd that she never even asked me if she could try it on its like she just put it on on top of her dress, and its almost like I had to give it to her at that point. Link to post Share on other sites
ja123 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It's a put off that she didn't ask first. That might indicate that she's rather self-entitled. I'd keep a watch out for other encroachment on your boundaries. Why did you give her the dress? Link to post Share on other sites
90s kid Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I find it very bizarre that she would try on your clothes without asking. Establish solid boundaries with her so she doesn't encroach on your personal space. Link to post Share on other sites
somedude81 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 And you didn't try to stop her at all? Did she take it out of your hand or something and then you went into shock? Link to post Share on other sites
preraph Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 The most alarming part is either your office or you have no boundaries or another co-worker wouldn't be stripping down in your office! If she's doing that to you, what the hell is she doing in the men's offices? Link to post Share on other sites
