Work: Today, I jokingly went over to a an attractive female co-worker...

Today, I jokingly went over to a an attractive female co-worker and said "you look like you need a hug". She told me she wasn't feeling well and didn't want to be touched. No more than 30 seconds after our encounter she ran to give one of our more attractive male co-workers a hug. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, at work, a weird old woman came up to me and told me that it's okay: being ugly isn't a choice, it's nothing to be ashamed of, and that it's what inside that counts. She then hugged me and walked away. FML

Today, I finally told the girl I've been after for more than a year that I'm attracted to her. Her response? A slight hug with a pat on the back as she said "There, there." FML

Today, while working at the bar, I had a beautiful woman squeeze my bicep and tell me I was in amazing shape. Instead of flirting like any normal human being, I awkwardly said, "Thanks…" and then walked away in shame. FML

Unfinished sympathy

Today, I walked into the office bathroom and saw my manager in tears. I tried to comfort her and gave her a hug. Turns out, she wasn’t crying, she was having a sneezing fit, and looked horrified at my sympathy hug. FML

Today, I told one of my coworkers that she looked really cute today. Later she sent an email to me and cc'd the entire office saying, "It really makes me feel uncomfortable when you say things like that to me. And I shouldn't have to feel that way at work." FML

Today, the girl that I fancy was sick and I offered to hug her, but she protested saying that she didn't want to get me sick. I told her, "If hugging you gets me sick, then I'll just have to deal with being sick." She gave me the biggest hug she could. I haven't stopped puking since. FML

Today, my attractive boss sat me down in the break room to say how much she appreciated how much work I've been doing despite being a temp. She was wearing a skirt, and I couldn't take my eyes off her legs. She then patted me on the leg and said "Good Talk". It wasn't my leg. FML

Dared

Today, I was dared to stand and hold a sign saying, "Free Hugs." This girl I'd never seen before gave me a crushing hug and cried hysterically on my shoulder in the blazing afternoon sun. I couldn't get her off. FML

Today, I went to a social event with a very attractive male co-worker. Things were going awesome, we were flirting and really hitting it off. Then his 'wife' called. FML

Today, as I was leaving the office, I heard my very cute coworker behind me say "Hey gorgeous, where are you off to?" I turned around with a smile and said "About to hit up happy hour." He was on the phone with his wife. I'm calling in sick tomorrow. FML

You are trying to cover up being horny by saying "jokingly". Maybe she actually needed some emotional comfort which she found in the other co-worker. Hope you dint have a hard on while you went for your "jokingly" hug.

Wow, you people are awfully judging. I always offer hugs to my coworkers if they look upset. Sometimes they accept them, sometimes they don't. Of course, I also love hugs, and I'm pretty sure they all know that. ...Especially when I'm incredibly happy (in which case they don't get a choice in whether or not they're hugged), drunk, or punch one of them in the face after a brief loss of control.

Today, I was depressed as hell, and this fat, smelly guy with a boner offered to cheer me up with a hug. FML.

I agree with #33. It's very possible she just knew that guy better, and felt more comfortable hugging him.

Are you fat and ugly? That's probably why she didn't want you to touch her. And don't even pretend that you can't tell if you're ugly.

Such a loser. If she looked like she needed a hug, and she told you that she wasn't feeling well, then that means that she was obviously having problems. She probably went to another coworker for a hug because he probably offered actual consolation, not just a 'joke hug.' Is it so hard for you to understand the subtle difference between the right time and the wrong time? Who know's, maybe you're the creepy hug guy at work...

You know when it's appropriate to hug people or offer hugs to people at work? When you know them well and you're both already really comfortable with each other. You know when it's not? When you're a creepy weirdo.
