Guys, would really appriecate the expertise.... with my situation.
Anyhow, there was this girl at my work place... I didnt really noticed her until very- very recently. She and i work in the same dpt but in a different group. When I 1st joined the company she and i didn't really talk, we were more like strangers saying "hi" as we walked by each other. I didn't exactly remember who started staring at who first but i know she was definitely flirting with me recently. Anyhow, she and i somehow gotten closer, we started talking about topics such as, "so how was your weekend etc."
So, anyhow, the other day i bumped into her at the restroom area, talked and joked a few mins...after we were done with our businesses, she and i happened to leave the restroom at the sametime. As we were slowly walking back to our desks she suddenly wrapped her arms around my arms??? Well, at that point i was seriously speechless but i acted cool as if nothing happened. When we arrived at her desk, she unwrapped herself and we chit-chatted more and then i went back to my desk.
I seriously dont know, but i get the sense....she has been appearing infront of me more than usual. Then the other day, once again she and i bumped into each at the printer room. I told her i got these really funny pics, photos of women in weird accidents, from online. She encouraged me to send them to her and which i did. We chatted more thru Email, arguing rather women were good drivers or not. The next day, she emailed me and asked if i wanted to join her for lunch with her co-worker (male) but i said i had plans with my friend. Sometimes she would tap me in the back/head for fun, as a form of joking with me. When we were talking, i noticed she was definitely closer than back then. The odd thing was, sometimes when i walked by her looking at her she dodes not look back at me, huh? I am so confused!
Now, my question is.... is this girl doing friendly flirting with me or the flirting with hidden interest towards me? My friends told me i should ask her out and see what her reaction would be... but i dont wanna get rejected. Not to mention, she and i will be seeing each other a lot.
PLz enlighten me, thx!
