    I need to know how to react.
    Okay, yesterday I was at work training and I sat next to a cute girl. She and I would chat when the instructor wasn't talking and we really seemed to be connecting. But when HR came and asked for our IDs we both got out our wallets and I glanced a picture of a guy in a baseball uniform in her wallet as she opened it. They looked similar so I asked if her brother played baseball and she replied with 'huh'? So I commented about the picture and she said it was her boyfriend. I've made it personal policy to not get anywhere nearer than friend to girls with boyfriends so I pulled back a bit in the talking department but right after she mentioned her boyfriend she became outright cold to me. So today rolls around and she sits on the other side of the room next to another guy, and while yesterday she was fairly shy she now loudly flirts with this guy and glares daggers at me whenever the I turn, hell she glares at me pretty much the whole time, I even see it in my peripheral. So should I just ignore all the crap or is there some step I'm missing?

    You don' react just ignore her. She is trying to make you jealous and wants you to react but some where along the lines she forgot about her boyfriend Oh well! Don't pay her any mind.

    Sounds like she needs to grow up. Don't take it personally. Pay attention to the instructor and to the students who are there to learn, not play games.

    I agree with ignoring her. But if she make it obvious, like right in your face with the glare either smile or outright laugh at her, and tell her she looks funny when she's angry.

    I think you are reading too much into it. I would assume that an HR person doing your training would be reason enough not to even think about "hooking" up with a co-worker, as it just begs for future problems. You are at work, and from the sounds of it, are just starting. Start on the right foot, not by playing games with some chick who seems to be immature.

    Work relationships don't work, believe me. Been down that road, way too much drama

    Ignore her. Your there for a job, not romance, games, or drama.

    Ignoring her makes it seem like there's something more going on. You already said it yourself: "I've made it personal policy to not get anywhere nearer than friend to girls with boyfriends so I pulled back a bit in the talking department"

    Since you don't like her more than a friend, just do whatever you want. Talk to her when you feel like it and don't talk to her if you don't feel like it. Simple as that.

    We are talking about someone at work... seriously, this isn't about playing games. Here is an idea, act like the bigger person and focus on doing your job.
