So I was volunteering for smth and was in a waiting room, the other three volunteers were friends (strangers to me but were there together). One of them ordered tea and I got coffee and she offered me some cookies she had. At this point she had once initiated conversation with me before but that's it. After that she did do so again. On my drive back I thought it might've been a conversation starter that I ignored completely. All I said was ok, yes or thank you to anything she said. I was perfectly kind, just not talkative.

I just wanna know tbh, I'm in a relationship anyways (not gonna tell her, is that a bad call?).

So what sign have you missed recently?

Edit: It appears she's just talkative af. She's cool and my gf met her and didn't think anything was off either. I'm just too cocky ig 😭

Offering cookies does not sound like a sign or romantic interest if that's what you mean, if I had some snacks I would definitely share them with some comrades, especially in the context of volunteering

It was more the vibe, the offering was just the most clear thing I could describe. But I'm still inclined to think i was reading too much into this or else act it wasn't even in the unlikely case that it was until the end of the week.

Is this some vestige of Abrahamic religious guilt? 😂
