So there's this woman that is always real touchy/feely with me. It's in a professional type setting. Whenever were working on something together, which occurs for very brief amount of times, she touches and kinda rubs my shoulder or arm a little bit. She's also grabbed my hand for a moment when the opportunity arose.


And this is a great thing, b.c she is very gorgeous and I want her!

But there must be a bad part as all situations seem to have. She is touchy/feely with a lot of other guys there as well from what I've noticed.


I don't think I've met a woman quite like this before. I hope she is into me and would like to date and stuff, but I just really don't know for sure. I'm also real cautious b.c she might just be an overly touchy/feely type of gal that just sees me as another guy. And I haven't got many other hints that she wants me to ask her out. She is a real talkative person and I'm pretty reserved, so could that work?


Have you guys encountered something like this before? Thoughts?

You got it all wrong, dude. It's just her personality.

But nothing wrong in approaching her. Finding out is better than speculating.

But don't plunge into her like a lion. Just take her out for lunch during an office day. After 4 or 5 outings, you will have your answer.

Dating at work and innocent flirtations is a "slippery slope" in the work place today. I would be very careful about playing where I get my pay. Things could go very badly, very quickly...

What's her ethnicity? Some cultures are extremely touchy/feely.

True. There are "touchy feely" people out there and there's nothing behind it.

I have been around alot of different women that were touchy/feely, and I think that is just the way they are. They mean nothng by it and would probably not welcome any overly friendly gestures from you. If she treats other men in your department to the same way, then that is a sure sign you have not been singled out for special attention. If I were interested in dating, I would ask her if she would like to meet for lunch. In reality, I wouldn't even attempt to date someone at my place of employment, but that is just me.

She knows exactly what she's doing and is what they call using her feminine wiles. There's even a personality type associated with this kind of woman known as "Master Manipulator". It usually consists of just as you described along with a ton of guy friends, aka orbiters. Whenever a guy they do this to turns around and tries to put the moves on her she give them with the old LJBF speech. Trust me, give it a try and let us know how she shoots you down.
