>met a girl who’s a coach at my bouldering gym ~8 months ago, had a couple lessons with her.>since then we’ve had occasional friendly/warm interactions when I see her which always make my day.>recently emailed to reschedule a lesson, signed with my preferred short name.>she replied using my full name (which is what's in their system), and did the same again in a follow-up confirmation email.>in person she’s still warm and we have good interactions.Is her using my full name and seemingly refusing to use my short name an indicator of disinterest? Am I overthinking or is is a subtle “keep it professional / not interested” signal?
>>34372584>indicator of disinterest>signal It's none of that. She would have to be thinking about you for it to be that. She was answering client emails. Of course she's nice to you she wants more of your money.
>>34372596>She would have to be thinking about you for it to be that. She was answering client emails. Right but even when answering emails in business or anywhere else you typically default to using the name the other person signed with, no?>Of course she's nice to you she wants more of your money.I get that she could just be being nice because it's part of her job but I think she gets paid by the company a set salary regardless of whether she does a lesson with me.
>>34372613>typically default to using the name the other person signed with, no?Not if I'm not paying attention. If the guy is listed as Michael I'm going to call him Michael even if he ends his emails with Mike because that part of the email doesn't matter to me I glossed over it. All I need is the date and time you wanted to schedule the appointment for.
>>34372754So I should bottle it up and move on instead of humiliating myself by asking her to go for a coffee? Yeah that's what I thought...
>>34372822pretty much. girls are hard coded to be friendly and warm with everyone but also keep it professional. unless they have a personality disorder. it means literally nothing. you're just a random guy she's seen a few times at the rock gym. if she was single and attracted to you, you'd be in here asking why she keeps finding excuses to talk to you, going out of her way, etc.
>>34372584I don't recommend trying to date any woman who is your teacher or coach or whatever. Women want to date men they look up to, not down on.
>>34372891>Women want to date men they look up to, not down on.This right here.
>>34372584No it’s a sign she’s copy pasting from your profileIf you like her tell her. What women really don’t like out of everything is men who can’t be honest about how they feel!
>>34372822just ask her out anyway you're reading too much into the email thing, I might not always call someone by the short form of their name that doesn't mean I don't like them
>>34372891>>34372897I mean she can look up to me in other ways other than this one niche thing. What's even the point of being in a relationship if you constantly have to stress about mogging your girlfriend at literally everything?
>>34374270In many cases she might not even be able to talk to you because it threatens her job. Imagine catching feelings for someone who can't text you or call you. It is a horrible idea.>What's even the point of being in a relationship if you constantly have to stress about mogging your girlfriend at literally everything?Most people who don't mog do not have a relationship to worry about.
>>34374622>In many cases she might not even be able to talk to you because it threatens her job.kek don't be ridiculous anon. It's not the Pentagon.
>>34374625I am speaking from experience, and you are not. Go ahead. Try to date the instructor.
