Colleague sent me message by mistake

[Islandhopper10]

Our team work remotely but we get together quarterly in person. Yesterday was a meeting in the office in the morning followed by a social so it was casual dress.

I was messaging a colleague earlier back and forth about work matters and he sent something really random and then instantly deleted it but I saw it pop up as a notification so read it.

It said ‘she knew what she was doing in those leggings’ with a sweat emoji.

Now I was the only one wearing leggings yesterday so it was definitely about me. This was at about 3.30 today and I finished at 4 so nothing more was said and I expect my colleague thinks he deleted it before I saw it.

Would you say something if you were me or pretend/forget I ever saw it?

Scrunch leggings are the up the arse ones, aren't they?

I probably wouldn't have worn them to work!

Well it’s not so surprising to get the reaction you did then.

I wouldn’t accept it and I would raise it.

You deserve to be treated with respect.

The ‘also’ 😂😂

Probably not intentional…?

I’d let it go

Oh, where do you work that this is appropriate? 😬

Scrunch leggings deliberately round your derriere so yep probably a fair message and definitely not what a lot of people wear to work!

scrunch leggings with a tight fit casual t shirt

😂

Do you use a sledgehammer to crack all your nuts?? How about an adult conversation with him first?

What do you mean?

His finds you attractive and would like to think the leggings were a deliberate ploy by you to show you're not averse to a bit of attention (from him). In ye olden days, he could get away with inappropriate daydreaming and it would go no further than a furtive whisper to a male colleague at the next desk. Nowadays there are all sorts of digital ways to spill secrets inadvertently. Or perhaps his subconscious would like you to know.

Good one OP. You knew what you were doing and he’s just pointed that out.

Legally blonde Google bend and snap you tube.. technique to get mens attention, tight leggings optional. Seriously I would take it as a compliment.

Where on earth do you work that scrunch fit leggings and a tight t shirt are appropriate??????

😲😲😲😲

Show me the man that would go to work dressed like that!

He’s obviously made a mistake sending the message to you.

Are the leggings suitable work wear?

You were showing your arse and possibly front bits too so what do you expect people to think?

I’m missing the point but wearing leggings to a work meeting is very unprofessional.

Well congratulations on being hot @Islandhopper10!!🔥 . I’d either subtly let him know you know via message or even better in person preferably in front of a crowd. Or let it go, it’s crass but not the end of the world. You weren’t meant to read it, it would be different if he had sent the message to you.

Maybe in a gym?

I believe op has now jumped the shark

Well they're designed to go straight up your arse crack, separate it and stay there.

What did you think the PP meant?

Agreed.

A bit of self respect wouldn’t go amiss.
I really think leggings should be banned in the workplace.
I had a colleague who would wear them regularly with short tops, they were often thin from use and I really didn’t want to see her bum area through the equivalent of thick net curtains.
Seriously unless you’re in the gym or pregnant just ditch them.

were you on your way to the gym?
