Weird text. Does she know it's her I like? [blush]

I very recently came out as lesbian. I've dated several men in my life but nothing has come of it so it's been so freeing to finally be out and proud! :-D

I really like one of my best female friends. I've always known she wasn't lesbian or bisexual so I've just left it.

I have a few drinks and just started telling her about how there's a woman I do like but she's straight so not interested. Caught myself saying too much and swifty changed the subject.

My friend text me today asking if I was going to tell the female friend I liked that I liked her.

I was mortified that she had remembered but I just replied saying 'oh I was just a bit tipsy last night. It's not big deal. I've already forgotten about it. Looking forward to tonight'.

She replied asking why I wasn't going to tell her how I felt.

Annoyed that she had brought the conversation back I said that the woman is not lesbian, does not feel the same, there's no point carrying this on'.

She replied saying I do not know she isn't lesbian and why don't I just tell her.

I then got annoyed and said I do not want to tell her, so please just leave it. I know she isn't lesbian.

Then she replied saying:

' Ah fair enough but you don't know that do you. Right now she's bored. Right now she's sat here doing spreadsheets. Right now she's drinking coffee. Right now she's eating a salad. Right now she's contemplating getting some water from the dispenser. But she's certainly not straight' See you at 6pm.'

HUH? I've not replied. Mumsnet users please help me. What does that even mean?! She couldn't possibly know it's her. Does she think it' someone she works with? I don't even know any of them.

What?! Oh my God! Awesome! You two have made a middle aged lady very happy! (does a little dance) Brilliant!

RedBullBlood · 04/03/2017 18:49

You need to learn the art of plain speaking. Off the back of your other threads you seem to have endless trouble with these does he/she really like me? scenarios.

ItShouldHaveBeenJingleJess · 04/03/2017 18:49

I'm literally grinning from ear to ear!

ChuckDaffodils · 04/03/2017 18:53

Excellent!

RedBullBlood · 04/03/2017 18:53

She's very feminine so didn't seen anything remotely lesbian in her
&
But then I couldn't be more feminine if I tried so it was silly of me to presume

You have some odd notions about lesbian women?

ItShouldHaveBeenJingleJess · 04/03/2017 18:54

Aw, thank you, pretty much given up on love but reading this thread has made me realise I still believe! How exciting - my face is actually aching a little from grinning!

twilightsparklepuff · 04/03/2017 18:54

Good luck smarties1991, I'm looking forward to you updating sometime tomorrow afternoon after your walk of 'shame'. Note: there is no shame, you both have a great time and one of you has to go home wearing last nights clothes.
