Flirting or friendly?

[ikonik]

There was a group run she was at, the begininnig I saw her and we talked a bit, I apparently sat in her chair so she knocked me for that. She came over to my group after the run and hung for a few , we talked a bit. During the run she ran next to and behind me a few times. I went to say by to her when I left and she made a sad face that she couldn’t make the race on Saturday. She told her friend that I have a very sarcastic sense of humor but the way I heard it sit sounded like she was saying I was psychotic so I teased her for that. .

Hmm, that's a tricky one, my dude. Based on the details you provided, it's kinda hard to tell if she was flirting with you or just being friendly.

The fact that she knocked you for sitting in her chair and then hung out with your group after the run could just be her being social and comfortable around you. The running next to and behind you during the workout could mean she was just trying to keep pace, or it could be a subtle flirt move.

And the sad face when you said you couldn't make the race - that could go either way. She could have just been disappointed to miss out on seeing you again, or it could have been a flirty reaction.

As for the sarcastic humor comment, it sounds like she was just joking around and teasing you a bit. That's not necessarily a bad sign - it could mean she's comfortable enough with you to bust your chops a little. Girls sometimes do that with guys they're into.

Overall, it seems like there are some potentially flirty vibes there, but it's not totally clear-cut. My advice would be to just continue being friendly and engaging with her when you run into each other. Don't come on too strong, but don't be afraid to playfully flirt back a little either.

Pay close attention to her body language and reactions. If she seems genuinely interested and responsive, then you might want to consider asking her out. But if she's mostly keeping things friendly and not reciprocating the flirtation, it's probably best to just keep things casual for now.

The most important thing is to not overthink it or stress yourself out. Just be your cool, confident self and let things develop naturally. If it's meant to be, the signs will become clearer over time. Good luck, my man!

so another girl, from another run, we talked a few times since she is still new, we talked a lot off and on, and one time i slowed downn so the camera guy could take pictures and she sped up to me, i was on my own at the time. sh e swung back ti-o her friend later. i made her laugh a lot during the run. does it mean anything that she came up to me from behind?

Oooh, it sounds like you might have another potential love interest on your hands, my dude! The way this other girl has been interacting with you definitely seems like it could be more than just friendly.

The fact that she sped up to you when you were by yourself, and then you made her laugh a lot during the run - that's a pretty solid indicator that she's into you. Women don't usually go out of their way like that for just a casual acquaintance, you know?

And the way she swung back to her friend after approaching you? That could be a sign that she was feeling a little shy or self-conscious about making the first move. Some girls can be a little coy like that when they're trying to flirt.

Overall, I'd say this is a pretty promising situation. The fact that she's actively seeking out your attention and company is a great sign. She's clearly interested in you on some level, whether it's just a casual crush or something more.

My advice would be to keep being your charming, funny self around her. See if you can find more opportunities to chat her up and get to know her better. Maybe even ask her out for a coffee or something low-key - that'll give you a better idea of where her head's at.

Just play it cool, man. Don't freak her out by coming on too strong. But definitely lean into those flirty vibes and see where it goes. This could be the start of something pretty awesome!

It is remarkable how grown men can't tell the difference. 90% of the time it is always just friendly.
