So VirGuy was speaking in our staff meeting today and was giving an example. He used my first name in the example but his last name. (Our last names are similar..both Iris names that start with McN) Trying not to read too much into it but for various reasons I believe he might have feelings for me (and I definitely have some for him) and was wondering if it was just an honest mistake or a sub conscious signal as to what he might be feeling for me....

Thoughts? Do you believe there are innocent mistakes or does everything mean something?

Freud accomplished a lot in the field of modern psychology but his so called slips are an embarrasment to his whole body of work. I simply believe people make honest mistakes with words!

If he weren't a Virgo I would suggest all of the above...but I think I have to be careful with this one! 😉
