I feel sorry for him

[BrentCross]

I work in a fairly ordinary office set up with multiple departments. My colleague who I'm relatively friendly with is very attractive and clearly enjoys it. A guy who I also know a bit asked her out recently. Not only is she spreading it all around the office having turned him down, she s also been imo downright unpleasant about him, saying she wouldn't go near him with a bargepole etc. I don't know anything about him other than he is young and presumably single.

Call her out on it. Tell her she sounds like an arrogant twat and does she really want people to see her as nasty.

I don't think she cares. She just thinks she deserves the attention and doesn't care about other people's feelings. Including those of us too ordinary looking to get chatted up with any regularity.

Your second post makes you sound slightly jealous, but I'm going to go with the tone of the first post and assume you're not and you just care about the chap. If she brings it up again, I'd just say 'I think you should stop talking about this so much. It's making things very awkward in the office' or similar.

You can stand up for the poor chap by telling her that "talking about Bob like that is really unprofessional".
If she says "I don't care" then you have the optional tactic of saying "What, you don't care that you sound like a massive spiteful cunt?" - it's what I'd do, but you might find it a little too confrontational

Tell her nobody likes a bitch.

Tell her that he had a lucky escape when she turned him down as he's far too good for her and her reaction and gossiping proves it!

Because she is queen bee the others laugh along at her unpleasantness. Wish I could confront her

Why can't you?

Bit scared she will turn on me..sad I know

I suspect when you confront a bully people will back you up. Stand up against her.

I might just. He seems like a sweet young man, it would really hurt him if he knew what she was saying

Do it!

Do it! If she turns on you at work to a huge extent, report her to HR. She doesn't sound like a great mate anyway!

I'd stay out of it personally. Lots of that goes on in my work place. Queen bee eventually got together with one of the blokes, when drunk on a night out they collectively asked for my opinion on the whole thing and I was, erm, honest about my thoughts on her behaviour generally (same sort of stuff your queen bee is doing). It didn't go down that well.
