how to find love

[sjgot1]

An old school buddy of mine is quite shy around girls. He's not bad looking but hasn't had much experience talking to girls, especially the cute ones.

 

Last week, an attractive girl at his work called him into a quiet area and the two talked. As she left she gave him a peck on the cheek.

 

Believing that no cute girl would be interested in him, my friend said (to me) that she must be playing with him (i.e. playing games or leading him on).

 

What do other people think i.e. my friend has raised the issue a couple of times and I don't know what to say, except that he may be assuming to much without getting to know her better.

 

Thanks

He sounds quite insecure, but personally I would never kiss anyone in work. It's really inappropriate and unprofessional, so it does seem a bit off to me....

 

More details please. What did they talk about?

Maybe get him to post on here?

It is possible she is leading him on but more likely that she finds him attractive.

i'd say it sounds like she is interested.

Sure sounds like she's interested, but I too would be a little freaked out if it happened at work.

she could be interested. whats he got to lose by chasing it?

It sounds like he's so worried about rejection that he's setting himself up for it to be nothing more than her playing games, so he doesn't get hopeful and interested only to get shot down.

 

The problem with this is, you could say of anyone who shows interest that they might be just fooling around. You don't know until you put yourself out there a little and see what response you get. It's almost impossible to tell before he really knows her.
