Is My Boss Just Being Friendly

Does she like me or is she just being a friend?

> The very same act can mean flirting or being friendly. So it’s sometimes impossible to distinguish on the surface.She might be friendly, without the intention to flirt, and you can still interpret it as flirting; then act as if you did interpret it so (= act flirty yourself). If there is chemistry, it actually *becomes* flirting, regardless of her initial intentions. You shouldn’t need to try too hard to see if she wants to play along or not. If she doesn’t, her initial intentions are clear (or she’s shy and/ or didn’t think about you that way - yet)She might actually be flirting with you. If you think so, there is a good chance she is. All you have to do is be light- hearted and play along. Be funny, positive and respectful (playful teasing/ antagonism can be in that category, though) and you will have nothing to lose. Immature (young or otherwise) women might not be able to deal with a friendly flirt and become dismissive, but that’s not your issue to fix.> Sometimes it IS possible to tell what her intentions are by reading her body language. This ability is a skill you have to practice. If you know the person well, it’s easier to do.Generally speaking, if she’s interested in you and wants to communicate it subtly through flirting, some general signs are: Looking at you often (briefly or not), sizing you up, looking at you lips - then the eyes - and possibly back, talking to you with her body faced in your direction, mirroring your body language, changes in her voice as opposed to her normal tone/pace of voice, abundant laughter even at your worst jokes, shyness, redness of face and many more.—-I would go with the first option and try flirting myself to check where the interaction is heading. Body language & mood reading will still be necessary then.

Is my boss hitting on me or just to friendly?

Sounds to me like he's testing you out to see if you're up for some office romance - a bit on the side for him.

There are bosses who do that every time a reasonable attractive young woman joins the staff. It's like a perk of the job for them. And even if he hasn't hit on other female staff before - he's married. There's a good chance it will be nothing more than an office affair.

NEVER NEVER indulge in an affair with your boss.

Other staff won't like it - and if you get a promotion they will claim you got it because of the sex and not because you are good at the job.
If the romance goes sour and you can't work together any longer who do you think is going to have to leave their job? You - or the boss? He may help you along with a dismissal. I have known that to happen when a boss tired of his latest conquest. You may end up losing your reputation for professional behaviour and your job as well as suffering a painful break up.

I would suggest you keep your relationship strictly professional - don't mix business with pleasure.

And it isn't always the underling who comes a cropper. The time I mentioned, when the boss got tired of the girl he'd been having an affair with - she told on him to higher management when he suggested she should leave the job, and he was reprimanded and lost a chance at promotion. How did that make him feel about the girl? Not friendly. She still had her job - but it wasn't pretty. Best not to go there in the first place.

Married boss being too friendly?

I have been at my current job for 3 years and I really like it. Anyways I have always had this feeling that my boss likes me too much. Everytime I come in to work he is eager to say hi to me and he smiles so darn hard. When I am alone or doing something he sneaks up behind me and tickles me, I can't help but laugh. He even does to to me when I am around other co workers. I am gay and some of my co workers have a slight hint that I am because of the way I act. However, I just know my boss knows that I am. It makes me feel good to come to work knowing that he is there because he is very nice to me. He lets me get away with a lot of things he tells us that we are not supposed to clock in before our time on the schedule but he lets me do it I have done it in front of him so many times I guess he doesn't care. But it is still weird how he says things to my other coworkers, and lets me get away with them. He is 50 married with two little boys one is 7 i think and the other is 4. Im 21 I don't know if he likes me the way I think he likes me or am I being delusional. I know its wrong if he does like me this way but I just want to know is he trying to try something with me or not?

How do I know if my boss is being suggestive or just friendly?

His intentions don’t really matter.If the behavior feels creepy, then it is.If the behavior feels like he’s trying to be friendly (but maybe he’s really awkward) accept it as friendly.The same behavior can feel creepy to one person and not to another depending on a person’s past, culture, beliefs. For instance, there are people who like being hugged and people who do not like being hugged.

Is my mom sexually attracted to me or just being friendly/my mom?

So we have family problems and I live with my grandparents and she comes over to my house about once every month or two. Anyways last night when my grandparents went to a play in New York we started watching a movie and just talking (normal right) but than about an hour or two later she starts hugging, kissing, touching, cuddling me. Than she starts feeling my muscles and I am very scared but I don't do anything but start backing up and comes even closer. Than she slept over and I slept in my room and than when i woke up I went downstairs and we started watching lord of the rings marathon. Out of the blue she says it's okay if your gay and starts cursing when some cool happens (i'm a bisexual teen by the way in the closet and don't act gay at all, I am masculine) and I was looking at pics of hot sexy guys, but u couldn't see because it was on my phone very close to my face, than she leans on me again and has her arm over my dick and I had a ***** but when she had it on my dick my ***** went away almost instantly. Than she starts saying that me and my grandparents are talking about moving and how we won't see her as much, and than she says it hurts her and than she almost cries but doesn't. I am so scared but confused. I am happy that she will support me but not that she stars touching and feeling my muscles and start kissing me and cuddling with me just makes it feel so uncomfortable. What should I do? Is it good that we are thinking about moving? Should I say anything???

Is winking flirting or just being friendly?

What was the comment he made? You know the answer. Is he flirting? Do not let this man take advantage of your good nature. It is easy to get caught up in the cajoling that goes on in an office. If you really aren't sure talk to someone you trust in the office about it. My friend was raped by a man that kidded and laughed with her..They went to lunch at the park after they had worked together for months. He was still kidding around when he put her in hand cuffs and raped her...She told no one because she thought it was her fault. She carried the guilt around for a long time and steered clear of him. Then one day she noticed a young employee (female) with a problem, turns out he was setting his next victim up..My friend told her, the boss and stopped it. Not all men are like this, but the fact that you asked makes me wonder...You be careful and don't wink back.

How can you tell when a man is just being friendly vs flirty?

Everybody is different, and I may only speak for myself, but when I am interested in a girl, for more than just sex, I ask her out on a date, so that I may develop feelings, that are more than just for sex, I would have to know her first, so that is why I ask to go on a date with her. Anything else is just speculation, and may make you look creepy, if you just assume, based on some kind of signals. As a Male who has had girls, who I had some interest in getting to know more by dating, come up to me; start flirting with me or asking me for a threesome with their friend. Please do not do this, that just creeps me out, and I am sure some other guys get creeped out by that as well.If you are interested in this Male, just ask him out, then you will find out your answer; or beware you may creep him out, and lose all chances you might have had. Just treat him like a human being, and give him a chance of a first date.As for a side note, not all Males look at you, and talk to you when they are interested in you romantically. Please do not make this assumption, my job requires me to look at people and help them find what they need to buy.I once talked to a Female to be friendly, with no interest in her at all, because I am just a social person, who was talking to make friends with her, the rest of the day, while I was working, she stared at me to no end; it made me uncomfortable the whole day, unfortunately, I was really creeped out; I never talked to her again after that.Also no, I am not gay, I currently have a Girlfriend, and have 16 ex girlfriends.

Is my girlfriend's boss hitting on her/ trying to get with her? or is he just being friendly… (details below)?

My girlfriend is 22 & extremely hot/beautiful. Hands down the prettiest girl around. She is a bartender & insists that her boss is a nice guy who does not creep on her. But something weird happened the other night. Keep in mind, this is not about my girlfriend being unfaithful. She is 100% trustworthy. The question is this: is her boss just being friendly, or is he creeping?

He asked her to stay late after work to "help him with a few things". So she texted me & told me exactly that, & to pick her up a few hours late. He apparently needed her help carrying a few posters from his house to his truck (?) & then he took her out to a nice restaurant & bought her food/wine (weird!). After they ate, she told him she has to meet me back at the bar. On the way home, he told her that one of the other bartenders called him & told him that her boyfriend (me) was "cursing out the other bartenders &causing a big scene about her being gone" (none of this is true at all! i was minding my own business, drinking a beer, all smiles!) so he got my girlfriend all worked up bcuz she thought i was causing problems. At this point she's begging him not to fire her & he says its all good.. She texts me & asks if the accusations are true, & i ensured her that it was all made up. He then tells her that he could "see on the camera footage that i was being confrontational" (bullshit!!) He offered her a ride home if she felt unsafe with me..
Thoughts?
She says I'm crazy for thinking he was hitting on her

How do you know if a wink is friendly or flirting?

Interestingly, for many little gestures like winks, small touches, smiles from afar etc, there are not 2 distinct categories, "flirty" and "friendly".See that more like a spectrum with two ends: "completely friendly" and "completely flirty". There is an infinity of possibilities in between.Some people are just naturally charming and flirting. They act kinda flirty all the time, but that doesn't mean anything.Some people are innocent. They will wink at you without any idea that it could ever be sexy.Some people are playful. They'll wink at you not knowing themselves what it means, just to see what happens.Some people might wink because they try to seduce you.Some people might wink to acknowledge your existence and be friendly.Etc, etc.
