My supervisor has just said this to me, very loudly, in front of everyone. She's had two glasses of wine.

Do I take this as a joke, or does she fancy me a bit? Everyone seems a bit shocked and I'm just taking it as a joke.

It was said after I was late getting to the fancy restaurant because I'd got a kfc on the way.

She's a happily married woman. Bisexual with a preference for women. But she's just having a laugh right?

She might just really like KFC.

Err, inappropriate.

Reply 'if you were sober and professional, you'd be exactly the type of supervisor I'd like.'

I'd take it as a joke assuming she's never done anything to make you feel sexually harassed in any way

CurlyhairedAssassin · 21/11/2016 23:14

I would have taken it more that she likes down to earth people who are not impressed by fancy restaurants and the like. Depends how she said it though. If she was giving you the eye then I'd be wary. A few more drinks should make it more clear!! (Her drinks, not yours!)

AVirginLitTheCandle · 21/11/2016 23:14

Do you want it to be a joke?

AVirginLitTheCandle · 21/11/2016 23:15

Because if you don't then you both need to get a few more glasses of wine down you Wink

roarityroar · 21/11/2016 23:18

Joke. Both of you sound great.

PenguinsandPebbles · 21/11/2016 23:20

Not really appropriate really, as she is your supervisor

But I really do expect it has more to do with chicken, than her wanting to actually get in your pants after a few glasses of wine there is nothing better than KFC IMO.

Littlerayogsunshine · 21/11/2016 23:25

I think she meant it as a joke. I mean, the way she said it
, it seemed like if she wasn't married she would be very interested and was attracted to me. But it didn't sound like she actually was interested at this moment in time.
She isn't. We just have a laugh.

And yes, KFC is great, so was the bottle of wine we were sneaking sips of outside the restaurant.

Were actually quite posh...honestly! 😂

Yes maybe she shouldn't have said it but she's not my Main boss.

I'm 100% heterosexual so she probably felt safe saying it.

I think it's the my kind of man / woman comment.

You seem to be workplace friends so I don't think it was hugely inappropriate.

WorraLiberty · 21/11/2016 23:36

Did she say it in front of her wife?

Either way, she'll probably wake up with a sore head and a red face.

sotiredbutworthit · 21/11/2016 23:44

I think she was prob just joking. Unless she does anything else I'd just take it as a compliment!

BoomBoomsCousin · 21/11/2016 23:48

Given the KFC context, I would assume she was joking. That's a classic sort of Jo Brand style joke. But if all your colleagues are actually shocked, then maybe she has been saying other things that you haven't heard?

Eevee77 · 21/11/2016 23:49

A bit inappropriate. I wouldn't over think it

Greengoddess12 · 21/11/2016 23:50

No one is 100% heterosexual. Wink

So is she married to a woman or a man?

She had wine and will probably be embaressed tomorrow. Let it go.

SlottedSpoon · 21/11/2016 23:56

Why on earth are you eating KFC on the way to a fancy restaurant and then sneaking sips from a bottle of wine outside the restaurant?

Isn't the whole point of going to a restaurant to eat their food and drink their wine? Confused

CouldIHaveIt · 22/11/2016 00:16

I'd definitely just take it as a joke.

I've said that IRL and on here, I'd be mortified if anyone thought I really fancied them.
