NTB Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 okay here goes........ i have a co -worker, one of those i never really see but always end up on the phone talking over work related accounts it has been like this for the past 4 months. well last week she took a stroll through our big building and came to see me said she just wanted to put a face with the voice we said hi and talk about other issues that were pending. well since last week she calls me just to talk nothing work related. everytime we talk she tells me that she can't go a day without talking to me, but i figured she just said that because i always call her about work related things. well today she calls me and asks why i haven't called her all morning and i replied because i have everything under control, she goes on again telling me "well at least call me to say hi i already told you i can't go a day without talking to you" then she even says "it's weird i rather talk to you than my BF." am i thinking too much of this or is this girl trying to hook up? what sucks about this is that she just got her BF a job in my dept and the guy is cool it sucks that i think his girl is putting the moves on me
LucreziaBorgia Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 "it's weird i rather talk to you than my BF." That's when you give her the cold shoulder. She's definitely on the make. A girl on the make is going to see anything less than a cold shoulder as a 'green light' to keep going with you. Even if you just 'drop it down a notch' she may see that as as signal to 'try harder since you are playing hard to get'. May as well just nip it in the bud - start being too 'busy' to talk or something. That does suck. I try to imagine someone saying that about me to someone they are hitting on.
elijahBailey Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 it's pretty obvious what she's up to. Don't play her game, especially with her b/f in your dept. A guy's gotta have some rules man. And, for all you may know, she may be using you to get at her b/f. Don't ask me how or why, I'm just sayin' it's possible.
Author NTB Posted October 7, 2005 Author Posted October 7, 2005 thanks guys i am trying to stick to just e-mail but she keeps calling me and every once in a while i have to talk to her about work so she slips in personal conversation.
westernxer Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 Don't fall prey to this prospective drama queen.
slubberdegullion Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 Don't fall prey to this prospective drama queen. Bingo. This situation is nothing but trouble.
blue16 Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 man a similar situation happened to me recently too...it sucks I know. I love how they're all into you then they just slip in that "BF" thing out of no where... I don't understand people sometimes.
elijahBailey Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 I don't understand people sometimes. It's easy to understand. They just needed to know that they can still rope a guy. They never intended it to go anything further. It's really themselves they're trying to affirm. Once they get that affirmation, they quickly control the situation by calling in their b/f. But, hey, men do that too.
