She (coffee mug in hand): There’s something different about you today…
Me (confused): There is?
She: I know… you cut your hair!
Me: No, I did not.
She: Are you sure?
Me: WTF?? Seriously… I think I would know.
Silence
Me (serious): You like me don’t you?
She: No, I don’t.
Me: Are you sure?
She: Seriously… I think I would know.
Me (giggles and chants): You like me, you like me…
She (horrified): You are full of shit, [K]!
Sometimes it is all too easy!
Sometimes you worry me…
She likes you.
She does like you.
(notice the inclusion of ‘does’ to differentiate myself from kyknoord)
Naaah, she likes you. (notice the… nah, nevermind)
Isn’t this how Michael Douglas met Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction?Just kidding, but you may wanna lock up your pet rabbit and check the insurance on the volvo station wagon
Please tell me that you didn’t say ‘You like me, don’t you’? She so doesn’t like you, she was paying you a simple compliment
I needed this!!!!
She wants you. (Notice I eliminated the word “like” completely…maybe she doesn’t)
This sounds like a conversation that would take place where I work!
TP: You are not alone. Sometimes I worry about myself… he he.
KN, Alan, TW: That’s what I thought. Besides, I could not let the opportunity pass me by to get the better of her.
Trigger: Thanks for the warning. I don’t think it will ever get that far. Just in case, I am calling my broker up right now.
Sugar: A compliment… about haircut I never had?
I did asked her. There is something you have to understand about me. I never let an opportunity pass me by to put someone one the spot. All in good faith and mostly I’m just having fun and playing the fool. In my defense, she left door open and I had to walk through it… couldn’t help it!
SWiB: Glad I could make you smile!
You have to explain the “want, but not like” thing to me. I’m a guy, we don’t always understand how these things work.
I wonder how you would have reacted had the roles been reversed?
Had the roles been reversed, I would have admitted that I want her and prayed to God that it would spur her on to ravage me right there and then in the tea room.
Maybe she just never really looked at you before.
…
Ravage you in the tea room? Really? You’d go for that? It’d make for great conversation at the Christmas party I suppose.
I think you answered your own question about “want” vs. “like!!”
What do you need my explanation for?
Love that “ravage in the tea room” part … yummy!
Good luck!
Smooch,
The Tart

So I guess the question is, do you like her
Sugar is correct with her question…NOTICE she used the word ‘Like’. We all know the answer to ‘Want’.
ryc: Yes, it was really cowardly. He could get away with it, too, because he was an ocean away and all forms of communication (besides actually going there to talk to him) can easily be ignored. :/
I hope you have better luck than I did.
terri: You have to admit… it sounds raunchy when you put it like that. Not my thing, but it definately has posibilities!
SWiB: I guess i just did.
Tart: It will not be so yummy when you get caught in the act!
Sugar & Isaulum: I like all my colleagues… he he. It is not about whether I like her, it is whether I like her enough to take it further.
“Don’t screw the crew”…. that is my motto.
shedemei: Your comment threw me a little until I realised you were referring to the comment I left on your blog.
I have better luck already… touch wood!
Hey Chitster! I’ve just been catching up. And I am loving what I am reading!!!!
You are a Word Master!
[...] What worries me is although I admire from afar, I don’t think I would indulge in some office affair. There was a phrase that chitty used about not having office affairs ‘don’t screw the crew’- I agree with that. Knowing the sort of work environment that I am in, it is a dead cert that this is going to be office gossip, but to be honest I have done nothing wrong but why do I feel so naughty. Got so paranoid about the situation, I said to my colleagues that there was nothing going on but they didn’t look like the bought it. They probably thought it was a case of ‘thus protests too much’. I did not kiss him or even sleep with him but I know what people are going to insinuate about our relationship based on what they saw. It was totally one-sided on his part. [...]
