Flirting or harmless? What do you think about this?

[Anonymous]

My friends husband sent his coworker a text to notify her of a bag of cakes that was dropped off for her at the job. This is what was said:

Him: [insert girl name] you have some nice cakes. *a minute pause* In this Mastro’s bag.

Her: I do don’t I😇

Him: 😂😭

What is y’all’s perspective? Do you think he’s attracted to her? Do you think it’s flirting? Does it make you wonder if something else is going on? Let me know.

Oh there is a definite attraction there and definitely flirting.. However, would I assume something else is going on? I wouldn't bet my house on there not being something else going on.

I cannot say he is attracted to her but yes it does seem like he was flirting with her though.

But how can someone flirt and not be attracted to the person they’re flirting with? Isn’t that the reason why people flirt? Because they are attracted to them? (Genuinely asking)

Yes of course you are right. However, some people simply flirt for fun also. They don't have any intentions to take things forward or anything like that.

I know you are asking genuinely. Yes you are right, people flirt when they are attracted to the other and that is one of the reasons.

Thanks for the MHO

You’re welcome! I responded to what you said but I guess it never posted🥴 But thank you for your feedback. It's definitely something I never considered and is most likely what’s going on. He doesn’t have a history of doing anything like that which is why it was so shocking to his wife when she found out. She assumed for him to step out of character like that with that particular girl must’ve meant he was attracted to her. But your comment made sense and is a different perspective, he definitely flirted which, as a married man, is hella wrong but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s attracted to her and wants to take it further. That’s why your comment was the most helpful👍

It does not sound like he is attracted to her, it sounds like she is attracted but he is just being polite

[Asker]

What do you see that makes you think she’s attracted to him?

[jennifer_bloom]

He used a tear faced emoji as if he feels like the comment is something he doesn’t like

[WhyMe247]

Sounds like she is attracted to him. This reminds me of Scream 4 with Officer Hicks liking Dewey.

What do you see that makes you think she’s attracted to him?

[hhhffg7889]

Innocent and funny. Not worth worrying about at all. Wouldn't be funny if it was not innocent.

[Asker]

Interesting, so you don’t think that as a married man he should be telling somewhat dirty jokes to another girl?

[hhhffg7889]

If it wasn't clever at least a little then maybe. But no I think that's over reacting

[Asker]

But what does it being clever have to do with it being inappropriate/flirting? (Genuinely asking)

[hhhffg7889]

It's not inappropriate though. They seem friendly.

[Asker]

I agree they are being friendly. Personally I think he's being too friendly considering he’s married. His wife is pissed & if she said to a male coworker “you have a nice print… on your wall (art print)”. I know for a fact that wouldn’t go over well lol He’d be hella pissed and rightfully so

[hhhffg7889]

Lol. Now that is funny 😄

[Guy13]

If not soon will be something hot happening

[Xtendable]

He likes her buns

[PatriceONeal]

That's innuendo
