Do people assume that you are flirting/in a relationship?

When you're actually not? If so, feel free to give examples in this thread.

*Talks to a guy about grocery shopping deals*

Someone: Oh, are you two dating?

Me: No.

*Has a conversation with a woman discussing project work*

Friends: Why don't you ask her out?

Me: How did you get that from us having a discussion about PowerPoint?

*Complements the shoes of that same woman*

Friends: I knew it!

Me: What? Oh. No, I just think her shoes are cool.

People tend to read too much into things.

I think it’s because they want this sort of thing to happen for themselves and others.
