Greetings, all! I am glad to see this thread is as popular as the last few.
I just got back from a meeting, so I am a bit behind on work...I will try to post answers if I get a chance.



Holding until you get back, Captain.

The most common way of telling is by touch. You touch them on the arm or the hand or the shoulder or however and see how they react.

Haven't you ever seen someone you wanted and just been desperate for them to touch you? Likewise, hasn't the touch of someone you didn't feel that way about unnerved you and made you withdraw? (Side note: I once nearly had to break the fingers of a girl who would not let go of my hand. Not that this was a regular happening but still... let go, let go! She was also the only person I ever fell asleep whilst talking to them.)

So, touch them and see.

You know it is easier to tell if someone's hitting on me if they're involved with someone else. Maybe it's just that if they go out of their way to talk to you without their better half around you know something's up.

The unnerved part - yeah- but I am divorcing him so that's solved :)

OK HERE is a question my wise male comrades -

There is this man. We "work" together at partner companies. We have never met. We talk on the phone constantly, we email, he picks on me AND he sends me emails on the weekends asking me to call him when he has the weekend shift. BUT he is MARRIED! WTF?

I'm with the rest of the clueless people. How do you tell when a guy is interested? I too have had the experience of having a nice conversation and later being told that the guy was hitting on me.

Even more pitiful, I have actually gone on a date without realizing that it was a date because I had no clue the guy was into me.

Please someone, give us some insight.

hahahaha I know the feeling! I've aparently been oh a bunch of dates that I had no idea were dates! My first date with my current significant other being a great example. As far as I knew it was just hanging out with a new person. He on the other hand went to great lenghts to make it special. I was clueless untill he asked to kiss me.

I haven't been on a date since August of 1987.

I have been separated since July of this year. I sit, all alone, meditating on me belly button.

Sniff Sniff.

Try not to feel too bad. I've never even been on a date.

And lets keep it that way young lady! No dates for you until you have completed college, made the world a better place and have a cool million in the bank.

Then well, we will talk!
