wizard08 Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 if your friends with a member of the opposite sex and you like them, do you touch him or her for example give a pat on the shoulder and just touch him or her whenever the oppurtunity presents it-self. Does this mean your being friendly or can it mean something else, for instance my co-worker was on holiday for three weeks and after he came back to work, a female friend of his who i happen to like just kept patting him on the shoulder and touched his arm whenever she could. Is she actually interested in him ? Coundn't say I was a bit jealous. Maybe i'm reading too much into it and i'm jumping to conclusions about them
Merin Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 I would say that typically when you notice someone touching another or you excessively yes it's a good sign that they are flirting and showing interest.
RedneckRomeo Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 I dont know how everyone else is - but I think its probably going to be similar. If I'm only friends with the opposite sex, I'm not going to try to be touching her all the time. I might do it once or twice while we're together if I'm making a point with the gesture or something like that - but I wouldn't just touch them whenever I could. When its someone I like though - I'd try to touch them more - but more often I'd try to keep their touch when they touch me first. If your co-worker's friend is naturally a very touchy-feely person, she could just be being friendly. I wouldn't really consider a pat on the shoulder flirty, but depending on the way it happened, as well as the way the arm touches happened - it could mean anything. It sometimes takes more than just a few pats on the shoulder and a few arm pats to see if theres a connection between two people - it usually doesnt' take long though to see that the one person is really acting different around a certain person that they like. If I were you - I'd probably look at it as her being just a little flirty, but only to be friendly since he's been gone on his trip for a few weeks. Were they good friend prior to him going on holiday? If so, I'd say she was just being friendly and was happy to see him back.
Author wizard08 Posted March 4, 2005 Author Posted March 4, 2005 no i actually don't think she is a touchy feely type of person, well only with people she seems to know or likes, that dude who went on holiday for a few weeks. I think they've all always been friends maybe i'm reading too much into it i seem to over-analyse everything. What do you mean by flirting does that mean talking to girls, chatting to them etc? what do they hope to achieve by flirting with each another?
