I went to this party the other day and there was a guy there and we were talking + getting along really well. We had a lot in common, did the same course but somehow never met and he spent the entire just being like ‘wish we’d met earlier’ etc.
I could also tell he was flirting a bit, like casually slipping into conversation that he thought I was beautiful etc. then goes onto other stuff and then was like ‘saying all this to impress you’. Now I’m not the best at telling when people are flirting but this felt a little more direct and he was quite drunk so probably was a bit more bold. He also would try and maintain physical contact, and basically kept his arms around my waist the whole night. He’s really cool and we really do have a lot in common so I had a really nice time just chatting.
My other friend who was also there calls me today to be like oh yeah he was quite cool, his girlfriend couldn’t make it and I was a bit shocked to hear this because he wasn’t just being nice, he was flirting quite directly sometimes. I think he’s been with this girl for maybe 2ish years now and is genuinely known throughout the year for being a nice guy so I was a bit confused as to why he was behaving like that. Anyway now I’m confused as to what I should do, like I don’t think he’s interested in me, I think he was just really drunk and just started flirting but it just doesn’t really sit well with me. Should I tell the girlfriend? His friend who was there with him didn’t look particularly happy with us basically talking the entire night and now I know it’s probably because of that. I just don’t really know what to do, it felt like harmless flirting, like I don’t see this going anywhere but I also feel really bad for the girl.
