I'm trying to understand this Cancer woman, and

I know it's been a long time since I lost contact with her, but now that I've been back in the workplace, she acts closed off. Before she usually engages in conversation, but now I don't know like when there are others around us, she praises me and so very nice to me, but she avoids eye contact. She's scared to look at me. And when we're alone, she always looks away, wont engage in eye contact at all, and cut things short like she's uncomfortable. I wish I knew what to do. I know I suddenly left without a word, but I don't know. What do you think Cancers?

Lol. Either she really likes you and gets awkward around you because of it or she knows you like her and is avoiding allowing you to 'connect' with her because the feeling isn't mutual.

In my case it would probably be either of those two and i'm a cancer. 🙂

Our first convo after I came back, and this was around another person, she was telling the other person how nice I am, and how quick our time together was (it was work related and non romantic). I don't know if she was trying to tell me something, or trying to remind me of what it was then. It did make me think of the time when I was around her.

Now she's all praises telling others I'm amazing, and that I can't do no wrong. But when I look at her, she wont look at me. She's always looking away quickly.

It sounds like she obviously likes you. I feel she and I are very different so I wont offer anything more in terms of how I am myself.

Ask her out. 🙂 🙂

Ask her out? No. Not when I'm not sure. You and her are different how? You mean how you are when you like someone and not like someone?

I liked this guy in work once. There is no way on earth I would ever ask him out or have a comfortable conversation with him. He stood next to me in the canteen once and he made small talk. I mumbled a couple of replies and walked away. I guess I had every chance to conversate but I literally couldn't and I suspect it was possibly the greatest chemistry i've ever felt with anyone.

Anyway, we never talked much in or outside of work but I used to think ..

That's how I felt too. It could be something amazing, but there is just that stopping myself.

She likes you, do doubt, because when I like a girl, I usually talk about her good qualities, in other words, all her pros. If I don't like you, then I won't even mention you in a conversation. I won't give you attention you don't deserve from my point of view. Hope that helps!

That helps! She does talk about my good qualities too much that sometimes I feel like why she's saying all these things, but when she passes by, she pretends she's not looking at me. When I look away then that's when she looks. I also see her friend watching me while she's gone.
