Out of the blue the other day a coworker asked me if I would like a grape, and I so I took one, he made a joke saying that was the grape he wanted. But that was that.

Today, again, he had grapes as part of his lunch. He asked again if I wanted one, and I said yes, this time he gave me a stem of with a few grapes on it. I said thank you and went back to my desk (he sits behind me), he was on his phone speaking to someone, and when I was talking to my coworker next to me he left me his last stem of grapes.

Are you trying to imply he isn't giving her Cutted Up fruit Shock

He's a savage !

Howling

He’s slowly building you up to make a move without a doubt. He gently puts a tiny bit of love potion in each grape and then one day he shall reveal he is Prince Charming and you shall have no choice but to run away together and live in a grape shaped kingdom for ever and ever.

He's trying to force you to eat grapes. Clearly controlling / abusive.

Here's my first ever LTB...

I hope he brought you a whole punnet of grapes today.

I think that if you imagine asking him 'Is this grape your way of telling me that you love me?' you'll realise that you might be reading into his actions a bit much.

Do you think that adults regularly use grape communication to convey important messages?

This thread js hilarious. Hidden meaning in grapes? Confused

clpsmum · 29/07/2022 11:46

He's being kind 🙄🙄

girlmom21 · 29/07/2022 11:48

Do you stare at his grapes until he shares?

ohlife08 · 29/07/2022 11:53

Huh?!
I used to share my lunch with a male colleague quite regularly (not in a romantic way, just that I told him to help himself to what was in the fridge) - we are both happily married to others and there was not even a whiff of anything romantic going on!
Does he flirt with you, any extended eye contact etc?!

ThinkingForEveryone · 29/07/2022 12:59

Are you both 6 and in the playground? Because now he's shared the grapes with you like a good boy he's your boyfriend 😂
Alternatively if you are adults it either means he is kind and thought you might like a grape or he's clearly working up to a work place poisoning.

Reading between the lines, if a man is interested he will ask you out, not give you grapes.

Tou can give grapes to loads of people and your wife will never find out about your nefarious activities, after all.

maddy68 · 29/07/2022 16:15

Eh? It means he's being polite

It means that Just 17 should never have stopped publishing, so that people could get this sort of idiotic question out of their system when they were 14 rather than grown adults, along with 'can i get pregnant through a locked window' and 'will i actually literally die if him from Take That doesn't reply to my letters'. FFS.
