sarsapolis6 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 What are the telltale signs that we guys give off? I work on the weekends at a shoe store. This Sunday I met a new co-worker for the first time. Now I shook hands with her and we greeted each other, and then I went back to work. Then later on in the back I told her that I was new to the city and had been here for 2 years, and she said "I've been here for a month." Later on that day I told her that I was going to go to a SuperBowl party, and she said "That's great. Great opportunity to meet some new friends..." I had to correct her and tell her that it was with friends, and then I continued the conversation. Now instead of asking me a question, she's going to assume that after the 2 years I've been here, I haven't made any friends? How come she didn't say: "Who's going to be there? or other questions such as "What's on the menu? or "Bringing anything over?" Are there certain vibes that guys give off? Body language? I wear glasses...could that be it? Link to comment
purpleduckie Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 maybe she meant that it would be a great opportunities for *HER* to make friends? as in, hinting maybe you would invite her? Link to comment
Ac143 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 maybe she meant that it would be a great opportunities for *HER* to make friends? as in, hinting maybe you would invite her? This is exactly what she meant...she has been there ONLY a month, you been there 2yrs..big difference. And if you didnt have ANY friends how would you be going to a party? Do you really think she thought you went to a party where there would be no one but you? lol I think you read into this completely the wrong way. Oh & the glasses can be a sexy thing. Link to comment

Cognitive_Canine Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I agree with others. She was talking about herself making friends. Link to comment
DN Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Or she is meaning that you can make new friends in addition to your present friends. Link to comment
lila... Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Or she is meaning that you can make new friends in addition to your present friends. Yeah exactly, seeing that the op is fairly new to the city too. I'd just take the statement for what it is, nothing to imply, it's pretty straightforward. Link to comment
FireInHeaven Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Because you were going to a party maybe she thought there would be some people there you don't know. It doesn't sound like she meant it in a negative way. Link to comment
sarsapolis6 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Okayyyy then.... Link to comment
FireInHeaven Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Okayyyy then.... What do you mean ok then? Usually at parties people are there who are friends of friends. I don't thin she meant anything bad other then you might meet some new people. Link to comment
Samedy Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Or she is meaning that you can make new friends in addition to your present friends. That's what I was thinking... Whenever I've gone to a party, I haven't known everyone one there... hence, it's a good opportunity to make some new friends. Link to comment
_Asti_ Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Well the fact that you said you were NEW to the city, and going to a party, I'm sure she just thought it would be great place to meet new people if you were NEW here. The other thing that jumped out was maybe she was fishing for an invite? Link to comment
tylercdurden2004 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I think she meant for her. You could relax a little. You do live in Seattle after all. Link to comment
Salicia Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 It sounds like you read in a little bit too much of what she might had meant. She probably thought it was an good opportunity for her to make new friends considering she has only been in the area for a month. She could have also thought that it was great opportunity for both of you to make new friends considering you also haven't lived in Seattle that long. Along with my second statement, I am wondering how big the party was going to be. If the party is huge, then it makes sense for both of you to make new friends but if the party is small, containing just people that you know, then it would have been a good opportunity for her to meet new people. I honestly don't think she meant any harm in what she said. Link to comment
