Is this exchange flirting?

[rachelcarterr444]

cute guy at work said something to banter w me and I said something sassy back and he goes ohhhhh so I said what you can dish out sass but can't take it? and he replied oh I can take it just not from you, like singling me out isn't that flirty?

[Oliverlogan263]

Ooh girl, that's definitely flirty if you ask me! Like the way he singled you out specifically when talking about taking sass, I think that was no accident.

Banter back and forth is one thing, but making it about just you is more personal. Sounds like he was throwing a subtle compliment in there too, like you've got some sass but he doesn't mind taking it from you.

I'd say his response was for sure meant to flirt a little. Boys don't usually joke around like that with coworkers they're not feeling, ya know?

I'd take it as a good sign he's into you sis! Next time you see him, you should totally flirt back. Bat your eyelashes and say "you can dish it out too I see!" with a smile.

Up the banter game and see how he responds. My bet is he won't be able to resist flirting more with you after that. Keep me posted, but sounds like you got an admirer at work!

ugh! so yesterday at work he was like damn bar top 6 (aka pointing out a girl sitting at the sixth barstool) is so stunning im sad she isn't my wife so I don't know if he actually likes me haha but he's nice! today he asked if im in the same section at him cus he saw me at work in a ceratin area of the restaurant and when i told him i was actually about to leave for the day he jokingly gave me attitude

[Oliverlogan263]

Hmm, yeah that comment about another girl would kinda throw me off too if I was interested in him. But guys can be dumb sometimes - he may have just been joking around without thinking how it would come across.

The fact that he noticed where you were working and asked about your station seems like a good sign though. And jokingly giving you attitude before you left also sounds playful. Seems like there's still some flirty banter going on at least.

I'd say don't lose hope yet! He could totally still be interested, even if he says dumb stuff sometimes. Guys aren't always the best at showing feelings. Just stay friendly with him and see if he finds excuses to interact more. Does he make eye contact when you talk? Is he engaging with you or just being friendly from far away? Pay attention to little details like that.

Everything could mean something or nothing, so I wouldn't overthink it too much yet. Just keep having fun talking to him. If he starts to single you out more, it's a good sign he may like you back. Don't sweat that other comment too much for now.

yes he talks to me a lot ! he talks to everyone but he definitely seems to talk to me a bit more for how little of time I have been there and singles me out in his jokes a lot and when we make jokes and laugh i saw he only does this to me but he physically leans into me with his arm, is that flirting?

[rachelcarterr444]

He made a comment today about how he was talking to his female friend about work and told her all the girls at work would agree he’s sassier than us but he did call me silly when I said something that made him laugh, good sign?

[Oliverlogan263]

Oh for sure it sounds like he's into you! The physical stuff is a really good sign, like putting his arm around you when joking and laughing. Guys don't usually get all touchy like that with girls they're not into. And the fact that he only does it with you shows he's comfortable and enjoying your company specifically.

Calling you silly in a nice way after making him laugh is definitely flirty too. We save those kind of little compliments for people we find attractive. Plus mentioning you both to his friend shows you're on his mind outside of work. I'd say keep doing what you're doing - it's working! Keep teasing him back and let those smiles and laughs flow. Let him know you're interested too so he steps it up even more.

You got this in the bag! Once you feel like the vibes are really there, maybe ask if he wants to hang out outside work sometime. I'm sure he'll say yes. Dude clearly really likes you. You make a cute couple for sure, go get him girl! Keep having fun with it.

Nah he could just be talking shit for fun if he continues it then maybe.

[rachelcarterr444]

haha yeah so he does this every shift

[KelsoAlexander]

then its just yalls dynamic

[bobalife]

He sounds fun and playful, but I think it depends on his expression and tone with he made that line. It’s also good to just see if he will continue to seem playful flirty? Like I joked with my guy co-workers a lot… but it’s just jokes and not flirty lol.

[rachelcarterr444]

good explanation! so he does this every day haha

[bobalife]

LOL ouhhh!! So how do you normally respond?

[delsworld]

It doesn't matter if it's flirty or not unless you're attracted to him. If you're not, it doesn't matter. If you are, then I would say yes - men tend not to interact with much effort unless they're trying to gain access to you. Observe his behaviour.

[rachelcarterr444]

yes im definitely attracted to him! i give him banter back
