Do you have a hard time telling sometimes if someone is being friendly or flirting?
I sure do. As recent as yesterday. Was buying some clothes. Coversation with the female worker went something like this.....
General small talk then talking about the clothes. As I was paying for the clothes, she says "What are you upto after this?, going home to relax?". Wouldn't be interested in her romantically, even if I was single.
But was left wondering whether she was hitting on me or just being friendly.
I think sometimes there is a fine line between the two.
Matter of fact... this happened to me last Friday. A woman I see working in one of the shops at my job site asked me what time I was getting off work. This was after a couple of days of friendly conversation and nothing more. Now... that could be taken in a number of different ways but I didn't give it any real thought as she is way too young for me so whatever 'point' she wanted to make - if any at all - was rendered moot.
What's to tell, if they're asking what you're up to later you know they're interested in possibly seeing more of you...if they're just talking non committal stuff, weather, news etc you know they're just being friendly...
It has to be pretty blatant for me to realize someone is flirting with me and even then I don't always realize it.
Yup. Well I am pretty friendly and unintentionally flirty. And I tend to assume others are like me. They need to hit me over the head with obviousness for me to catch on or I just think it is friendly banter to pass the time.
I'm a 47 y/o fat guy, they are always just being friendly- no confusion
