I told a colleague his hair was strokeable...

And now feel mortified!!

Didnt mean anything by it, we were chatting on facebook (so very public!) About lockdown haircuts, he mentioned he was wary about his wife cutting his hair (yes he has a wife, I have my dp!) And i replied saying that I understood his worry, and that his hair is very strokeable.

In my defence, ive had a few drinks, he has nice hair (like fluffy guy hair?) And it seemed a reasonable reply to his worry about an amateur cut... But his wife is going to think im coming onto him isnt she...

Totally not the case, ive never met his wife but he has met my dp, we are good friends, but work friends only sort of thing. I trained him and recommended his ability to higher up and hes done well from it so we've kept in touch quite a bit.

Is it an awful thing to have said or am i overthinking it...? Hes seen it and responded so cant delete it now.

😲😂 would you be able to have radical plastic surgery and change your identity during lockdown?

Haha, I've said the same to an employee of mine .
He had a very strokeable scalp- shaved head, plus used to have a Mohican. He's gay, I'm straight and DH was his other boss. I wasn't coming on to him - and am still mates with him (and his boyfriend).

Just never mention it again OP.

Put a laughing emoji and a note saying bloody autocorrect! I meant....... (insert something more suitable) don't worry I bumped into old school pal when drunk stood there stroking his beard going ooooh it's lovely and soft I like it mmm mmmm
