About seven months ago, I (30f) ran into a colleague in the canteen whom I hadn’t seen for six months. She asked me how I was doing and how things were going in the city where I live with my fiancé (34m). I said that everything was fine. Then she asked, “Are you still together?”
I was really surprised and reacted by saying, “Yeah? Why?” She then explained that it wasn’t as if she had heard anything, but that sometimes things change.
I spent a long time wondering why she would ask me that, but I couldn’t come up with any explanation.
Yesterday, seven months later, she asked me about our wedding plans, what I was going to wear, whether I was excited, and so on. Then she said that some couples don’t make it to the wedding because they break up beforehand but she‘s happy if people make it.
Now I find myself constantly thinking about it again, wondering what she meant and whether she was trying to hint at something.
I tend to overthink and overanalyse things, so I’d be interested to hear how you would interpret these two conversations. Would it be strange if I used yesterday’s conversation as an opportunity to ask her what she meant when she asked me that question? I’d have to message her on Teams, as I probably won’t see her in person for a while.
