Confusing signs - Am I reading it wrong?
Hi guys,
First post for me.
A few months ago I found myself very strongly attracted to a girl I know. You know the usual drill, couldn't stop thinking about here, all that stuff.
I kept my feelings to myself at first but I found she seemed to be developing an increased interest in me as well. Lots of chatting and joking around at work. We talked a lot over the Internet as well. I thought I detected some flirting.
Still I didn't approach her because if I was wrong I knew the situation would cause problems for the work environment.
After a week or so of this going on some of my work mates approached me and asked if I realised that she was into me? They had all noticed as well.
I thought at this stage that all the signs said she was interested. So I ended up asking her out for dinner after work. She says she has a Girlfriend and going out after work would be tricky cause they spend every night talking over the net.
After that blunder I thought that it was all over but nothing has changed. The same interest seems to be there. More people have commented on what they think is going on.
She has spoken more about her girlfriend since then and it sounds like they are quite close.
I've tried moving on and attempting to meet other girls but the motivation just isn't there. I can't get the feeling out of my head that I've already found someone.
I don't fall for people very often, I think there have only been a few girls I've actually been head over heals for. I'm hopeless at this!
What do you guys think I should do? I really like this girl, she's cool to be around and we get along so well. I don't want to push the issue too far through fear of ruining our friendship but at the same time I feel a stronger connection to her than I would have with normal friends.:o
