not sure where to start...recently got a new boss at work. I guessed she was gay from the start and it wasn't long before she came out to me. Her sexuality isn't common knowledge, only a few if us are aware. She has a partner as do I. We have met up for lunch a few times recently, with mostly her suggesting that we "go for a coffee". To be fair I'm not completely innocent in instigating this further. Things always seem a bit awkward between us yet she seems to have gravitated towards me more than anyone else in the team. She takes a more than average interest in my relationship ie "is xxx giving you enough tlc?"....surely that's a bit of an odd question? She uses odd terms when talking to me such as calling me a "good girl" A colleague has mentioned that perhaps my boss would be interested in a "work fling" and despite my protests that she is happy in her relationship, my colleagues suggestion that she would be interested is nagging at me. Is she interested in me? Am I interested in her? Is it purely platonic? I don't know if maybe I'm reading too much into our interactions because I actually want her to be interested. I get butterflies thinking about her...But why would my colleague be so adamant? Help!
Are you currently in a relationship with another woman? Sometimes people automatically think (say your work colleagues) that because two women are lesbians they automatically are interested in eachother. As to whether she is interested in you or not that would be difficult to say, she may just be being friendly. Do you think because you want her to be interested it may be clouding your judgement as to whether she is or not?
I am in a relationship with another woman. My colleague thinks my boss might be "a bit freaky" and due to the high pressure environment we work in, might want a fling to...relieve her stress? I am worried that my interest in her is clouding my judgement. I feel chemistry but maybe it's just coming from me I suppose 1) there's only 1 way of knowing if she likes me and that's coming out and asking her...which I can't do of course! And 2) even if she does like me, I am taken and shouldn't be entertaining such a thought.
