Why does a male colleague keep asking what I’m doing at the weekend every week does it mean he’s just being polite?

Hmm, this is a tricky one. On the one hand, dudes will sometimes just ask stuff like weekend plans to make small talk at work, ya know? So it could be he's just tryna be friendly.

But the fact that he asks EVERY week kinda makes it sus. Like why's he so invested in what you specifically are doing all the damn time? That seems more than just casual chat.

My guess is he's at least a little interested, even if it's just tryna be flirty and not tryna take it further. I'd pay attention to other details - does he look you in the eye a lot when y'all talk? Laugh at your jokes more than others? Find excuses to stand near your desk?

If he's showing subtle signs of feeling you, then he's probably asking to try and get a read on if you're single and might wanna hang out. I'd just play it cool when you answer, don't give too many details. And see how he responds over time too - might give away more of his true motives.

Long as he ain't being a creep otherwise, no huge red flags. But eyes open for sure. Let a player know if he steps outta line!

I do it to be polite. If he was further interested, he would have asked for a date when you are free.

Try to notice if he asks everyone that. If he does, he’s just doing it to be polite.
