Is my boyfriends boss coming onto him, or just friendly?

Question - (1 October 2010) 5 Answers - (Newest, 6 October 2010)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and I have been dating a year now and my boyfriend got another job after being laid off a month ago. This is a small ice cream parlor job, so everyone working there is a three to five years younger than him. During the slow times at the store his female manager and him talk. There conversations are getting a little risky to me. I've been in a few times to get ice cream and see him on his break. He told me today that his manager told him she has never had sex with a uncircumcised man. Also, another conversation was about her getting surgery... after my bf asked what was it she told him it was birth control. The last conversation that made me wince, was when she told him about a conversation when she was deciding who to hire with a guy friend of hers said that my bf likes her and that he is a threat to him for her affections. I thought this was weird. Also, she just moved and texted him at 8pm to help her move. Today I found out she bought him a really nice cigar. My bf is open with all of this and tells me, I think he is shielding some of the things. I don't want him to lose his job in this economy. I just don't understand her, is she coming on to him or is she just friendly?

Thank you for all of your answers they were a great help. Well today she treated him on his dinner break. He calls her by a nickname now, I know that he plans on marrying me. I don't know if I can take all of the flirting, I'll have to see.

Actually, I'm not sure you need to worry about your boyfriend. He's being totally honest, as honest as can be. In fact, he's being so honest that he seems blissfully unaware of this boss of his.

She does sound like she fancies him. Through and through. Talk to your boyfriend about how you feel, and get him to reassure you. I don't think you need to worry about him. He sounds totally disinterested in her to the point of being naive about it. But she does seem to like him a lot.

i do very much believe shes coming onto him, i was like that with my manager but she was 5 years older and had kids. nothin came out of it. but be careful sounds like maybe your boyfriend might be flirting back becasue i had a girlfriend and i flirted back sometimes also since it really wasnt harming anyone . only to think that i was a bad boyfriends becasue i would tell my girlfriend somethings she would tell me but the really intimate stuff i never mentioned. GOod luck.

This is more than just friendly. Have a talk with your guy and tell him that she's getting a little too close for comfort. You cant expect him to leave his job; he is a professional, and tell him to deal with her the way a colleague at work should be dealt with. No personal details, no nonsense, no sex and birth control shit. He doesnt have to help her move. If your guy sets his limits, nobody can do anything.

To tell the truth. I'm not sure. See some girls are very nice like that but some are sluts like that. But that doesn't matter, he TELLS you everything bout her, and is open. So don't worry its ok if she hits him. Good luck
