eating with coworker

[nacho bob]

I know this is a very lame question but I am very intrigued by it. I have a female friend at work who I eat lunch with sometimes. She will often offer me a bite of her sandwich or a bite of whatever it is she is eating. I am surprised that she will let me just take a bite right from where she just did or use the same fork that she is using. I wouldnt let someone do this with my food but she seems to have no problem with me doing it. She only does this with me too. I just find it really odd. I guess I am more of an annal germophob than her. I am curious if this behavior is some unconscious way of her showing me she likes me? I wonder if she even realizes that she does this? Like I said, I know it is a lame but I just find it such an odd behavior. Has anyone else noticed something like this? I have asked a few friends and they told me that they would only practice such habits with their spouses or gfriends. Just curious?

Uh, I don't think that really implies anything. I'm really laid back and sharing food with other people isn't a big deal to me. She's probably the same way. Just being friendly.

While I agree tht I would only do this with a significant other or a child, I hve to disagree tht it mens she likes you. Some people are just weird like that. I don't get how people drink out of friend cups or use their utensils. She might like you though. I just don't think she is shring her food to show you tht she likes you. Perhaps, she does like you and her willingness to share her food is just a result of her affection for you. You'll probably want to look for other signs or, be bold and ask her out.

It sounds like she likes you but she's also testing your strength of character. Don't take from her food anymore. Be strong, yet reciprocate politely if you are interested.

Yep seems to me she likes you,I'd do it with someone I liked,its like kissing almost,would youkiss this girl? She would probably kiss you. IMHO!.
