Is this intimate? Mixed signals

[Eggnoglatte2]

Out for work drinks and male co-worker greeted me by placing his hand on my lower back as he came over, to say hi. We hadn’t been talking prior to this point but get on well and there’s been a bit of flirtation maybe in the air. Means nothing or possible something?

Bump

Yes, that's quite an intimate hand placing.

He's been brave in today's climate, many would complain about that.

No that’s true.. just trying to work out if it’s a standard gesture

I say it’s flirty! Friendly is a hand on the shoulder...

I hope so 😂

Quite a proprietary move I think

So what are you going to do about it, OP??

@Happy going to leave it and wait and see if he does anything else. Ball is in his court I think, I’m not really a flirter and still trying to figure him out

If that were me I would put my hand in the exact same place on him and say something...risqué..

Not necessarily flirt. How busy was it? If not that busy then more likely to be flirty.

Nice though

Not busy at all, I was drinking with someone else and milling about and he popped up next to me to say hi, and sort of touched my back as he did it.

that's not mixed signals, that's him testing your boundaries
you didn't tell him to fuck off so next time he will pinch your arse
