guyonline Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 So its been a year since my last relationship, five years, and being able to tell if a girl likes me / flirting has been fairly hard minus using dating apps ... knowing if a girl is interested in me via a dating app is relatively easy compared to being in person. Before going into it, yes I have had dated several woman in that time ... and no I am not sitting in a corner crying over my ex (was over her a long time ago, ended really badly...). So back in February our paths first crossed ... there was just something about her, maybe the way she spoke, or her cute smile ... I don't know what it was ... but it caused me to really like her. Our interactions were limited due to our work environment and so it never really allowed me to interact with her ... unless going out of my way, my coworkers helped by trying to setup a few interactions but I struggled because to be honest I really liked her and I also don't like the idea of office romance (kinda caused an internal struggle) ... So we didn't talk for a few months until a work situation changed where we had to interact for a little bit at least a few times a week. I had also assumed (wrongly) she was dating another guy during this time, so I didn't put any effort into prolonging these conversations. So by the end of June she had told everyone about her plans to take a year off from work, leaving the company in full, and travel around the world for a year. And during this time between her telling us that she was leaving and her leaving, anytime there was a group event (there was a handful of times) ... she would come by my cubical and strongly suggest I come up and join them or out with them ... with the outings she would dare me to do something silly, like order the biggest steak or drink on the menu. Also asked how old I was and when she was right said to her friend 'See I was right', which I figure means that they were talking about me. Those are the key things that happened ... but my coworkers who had initially supported the idea of us interacting slowly pushed back near the end telling me it wouldn't be a good idea to try and get a group, including her, to go out and hang around. One sighting she was leaving so either go for it or forget about it. As well I only found out the day before she left how close she was to the two coworkers I had been talking her to ... so there push back had a reason and they haven't told me about it. It has been a few weeks and its still on my mind ... What are your thoughts all mighty internet?
preraph Posted September 2, 2018 Posted September 2, 2018 Well, she's about to be gone for a year, so the timing seems bad. I mean, it's good she's not working there anymore, but ask her if she's really going to be gone for a year and if she's coming back in between travels and suggest you grab coffee and catch up when she's in town. Forget about her friends and what they want.
