Maryanne works in another department, but she works on the same product as I do. Thus, I interact with Maryanne nearly every single day. And of course, I think of ways to hit on her, nearly every single day.
Once, when out for drinks with a few coworkers, I confided to them that I thought Maryanne was hot. They all gave me very strange looks. Most average guys would not find Maryanne attractive. She is in her late forties, a little on the plump side, and perhaps a few too many wrinkles on her face. But as far as I am concerned, she is simply delicious!
Maryanne has two distinct personality traits. The first is that she is one of those touchy-feely types. Well, not exactly; touchy-huggy is a better term. For example, when she is emphasizing a conversational point, she will place her hand on my forearm. Or she’ll give my forearm a friendly squeeze when she says, “I’ll see you later.” And yes, there’s been the occasional hug. Recently, she celebrated her 20-year anniversary with the company, so there were hugs all around.
Touchy-huggy women are difficult to figure out, because they can be one of two types:
- The extremely nice, morally-upstanding, never-cheat-on-their-husband type
- The flirtatious let’s-hook-up type
And truth be told, I’m not sure which one Maryanne is. She is married, but has no kids. She doesn’t talk about her husband but loves to travel with him. She will skip office parties to be with him. I just don’t know.
Maryanne’s other personality trait is that she is a constant complainer. Now this is something I find to be a total turn-off. She has a bad thing to say about nearly everyone in the office. Either someone is lazy, or clueless, or too demanding, etc. You get the picture. It’s a shame too, because she’s not one of those complainers with the constant sour puss on her face. She actually smiles most of the time, and she looks ten times prettier when she does.
Still, she’s someone I love to flirt with!
