Hey everybody! Posting today to get some opinions. Was wanting to know if anybody thought a woman(25F) might be interested in me(24M)?
Went through a pretty cruel divorce earlier this year. Got kicked out the home and started crashing at a buddy’s house until he moved out of state. Im staying at a really nice homeless shelter at the moment until I get into my own apartment next month.
I think a woman who works here might be interested in me. She is the head food person. She does all the stocking and cooking and all of that. Drop dead beautiful, kind, sweet, really smart and interesting.
She calls me handsome a lot. If I get a new haircut, oh you look really handsome. Or I wear a new hat, oh your hat makes you look really handsome. I have a nice trimmed beard, and she says it really suits me well. I’ve shown her pictures of me without one, and she says I look good either way. She’ll mention to other staff that I look really cute with a new haircut or a new beard trim.
Im a pretty nice and polite guy and I do a good bit around here. If I do something good, she’ll go oh I just love J**, he’s a good guy. But IDK if that’s just cause all the staff really like me being honest. I live in Colorado, and I was raised in Southern Louisiana. I stick out like a sore thumb and I think she might be into the whole southern personality thing. She says she loves the way I say howdy. My southern accent. How polite, respectful, and thankful I am.
She does other things too. I work nights and when I come back in the morning, she’ll ask me how work was when she doesn’t ask anybody else during the day. I come back late on Saturdays, and she saves me plates and doesn’t for anyone else. She asks about me a lot. Like if I’m coming in this morning, oh where’s J***. That sort of stuff.
Age came up one time and she was happy to hear I wasn’t so old. My beard makes me look like I’m in my late 20s. She seemed happy to hear I’m 24 (she’s 25). There was another time where we were the only ones on the elevator heading down. Usually, she can keep eye contact with me well. She wasn’t able to really during that time. We’d talk for a little bit and she would have to look away nervously. She remembers a lot about me too.
Does anyone think she might be into me or is she just being friendly? Should I ask for the opportunity to sweep her off her feet when I leave the facility next month?
TLDR: Receiving some signs that make me believe a woman might be interested in me, but unsure if she is just being friendly?

Dont shit where you eat my dude.
I don’t really know much about shelters but this sounds like someone who is used to being kind and empathetic to people who are going through a tough time.
She may be, but it’s inappropriate when you are a resident. Wait until you have your own place, and then ask her to coffee/tea.
If you’re coming out of a divorce already so young to the point where you’re temporarily homeless I think you should really put a pause on seriously dating.
I’m sorry to hear about your cruel divorce, I went through one very young as well.. But, you are young, and not long out of a divorce situation. First, get your own place, take some time.. perhaps go say hi to her there, keep it friendly, but don’t get into anything so soon. You need to enjoy just being single for awhile.. good luck.
