What did she mean when she said that?

Coworker I chat with. We were joking around she said she was going to report me (it was clearly a joke). She said, I'm just kidding, who's going to report such a cute rich boy. Could she have said that because she thought I was good looking. Like she knows I have money (she has money also by the way). So I know the rich part she meant. Earlier, before she even knew I had money, she asked me if I had a girlfriend in a curious/interested tone. I said no, and she said why?

Hmm, that's an interesting thing for her to say. When a girl calls you cute, usually that means she thinks you look good, ya know? And the fact that she asked if you had a girlfriend before even knowing you had money makes me think she was probably interested in you just for you, not about any money.

It sounds like she may have a bit of a crush dude! The way she asks why you're single seems like she wanted to plant the idea of maybe being with you. And saying "who's gonna report such a cute rich boy" puts cute first before rich, like your looks are what caught her attention primarily.

I'd take it as a good sign she thinks you're attractive. Maybe try smiling and making more eye contact with her when you chat at work. See how she reacts - does she get shy or smile back? If so, you could even ask if she wants to hang out for lunch someday outside of the office. Wouldn't hurt to see if there's really something there when you're not on the job, ya know? Might be worth finding out if she likes you as more than just a coworker. Good luck!

Yeah I see. Like what happened was I was chatting first with other coworker we friends with. He said some stuff about her which he was joking about. I said oh really, she then messaged me saying he's joking I said I figured. Then we were just joking about ourselves to each other. I told her something bad about myself which was clearly a joke and she knew and then said the HR thing. I just said oh no. She then said such a cute rich boy thing and all. I remember also few weeks ago, she said how she likes these certain kinds of guys and said she finds them cute. So when she said I was cute, I'm thinking she thinks I'm cute in looks way and may be interested.

Yeah man, it's definitely sounding like she's into you for sure. I mean joking around one on one like that and calling you cute right after you were joking about yourself, that's a pretty dead giveaway. Plus bringing up what kind of guys she thinks are cute a while back too? She was definitely putting out feelers to see if you'd be her type. I don't think she'd be saying all that and flirting with you so much if she wasn't interested.

It's also cool that you guys were joking around just by yourselves, that shows she likes hanging out with just you. I'd keep doing more of that. Maybe ask her if she wants to grab lunch together one day, just you two. That could be a good chance to see how the vibe is when you're alone. Keep up the joking and complimenting too. Like next time you make a joke, throw in how funny/cute she is when she laughs or something. Keep it casual so she doesn't feel pressed, but let her know you think she's cool. Dude I'd say you got a really good chance here! Just be confident and see where it goes.

Can’t cute also be reference to personality though? Or is it usually both?
