What is this woman's purpose?

[Smartman5]

There is a woman. Every time we meet she asks me questions like "What's up, how are you, what are you doing, do you want something to drink?" I don't know if she likes me or not. She is beautiful but she is married.

[thegreenyogi]

She probably really likes you and the fact that she's married probably doesn't really matter to her in this context.

[Smartman5]

I can't get any sign from her other than these questions. What should I do?

[thegreenyogi]

Just ask her. You don't give me the impression of someone who is shy so I think asking her directly without wasting further time would be the solution.

[Smartman5]

How can I ask? This is a difficult thing.

[thegreenyogi]

" Sorry if this sounds a bit too forward but you always invite me for a drink and ask me how I am is that because you like me?"

[Smartman5]

First of all, no one should hear or see us when we ask this. I don't think her will tell me the truth if I ask this question when the environment and time are suitable. We should think of something else.

[thegreenyogi]

How about accepting her invite to go for a drink? Maybe if you sit down and have a drink together you might be able to talk and you can observe her body language to see if she does feel attraction for you.

[Smartman5]

She doesn't actually invite me for a drink. She offers to bring me something to drink at work.

[Smartman5]

There is no environment to sit and talk at work. We have to talk about this without anyone seeing or hearing.

[thegreenyogi]

Well if you have to be somewhere where no one sees maybe you should invite her out.

[Smartman5]

I'm worried that she will tell someone else that I invited her out and what we talked about. If that happens, I'll be in a very difficult situation. Other people will misunderstand. I'll still ask her about it somehow.

[thegreenyogi]

Well maybe it's best you leave it alone.

[Smartman5]

Maybe. Time will tell

[thegreenyogi]

Thank you for the MHO!!

So any woman being friendly has to be mean something, huh?

[Smartman5]

No, but this woman seems a little different to me.

[LiamJHayden]

Probably just a nice woman. Don't read into it.

[Smartman5]

For some reason I don't think so. She is married but she seems as if she doesn't get any attention from her husband.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Sounds like she’s just being a good hostess

[Smartman5]

What does this mean?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Like when you host an event, you’re in charge of keeping your guests happy. This can apply to some customer service jobs too

[Smartman5]

Yes, you're right. But what does this have to do with my question? I asked what this woman wants to do. We have nothing in common other than working in the same place.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

I imagine those social skills carried over to being casually kind
