Did this girl really like it when I hugged her?

I'm a guy and I recently had an experience with a girl that I thought was kind of interesting. I'm trying to figure out how she really felt about the situation, but I'm not very good at reading girls' minds, so I was hoping some of you might be able to help me.



I've been working at the same place for a little over a year, and on my first day at the job I met a girl who was about the same age as me. From the very first day that I was there we started becoming good friends. We worked as a team really well, we always got along, and we loved to work together. I would say that she's probably the best friend I have at my job. Well, she recently went out of town for two weeks, and she got back a few days ago. I worked with her on the first day she was back, and when I saw her I kinda felt like hugging her because I had really missed her. My problem was that she didn't really seem like the kind of person who would have liked it. She didn't seem like a very lovable person. Also, I knew she had a boyfriend and I didn't know how she would feel about me doing that to her. I thought about it for a few minutes, and then decided that I wasn't going to do it because I didn't want her to feel awkward. However, while her and I were standing in the back together waiting to clock in, one of our other coworkers came along and talked to me about how much I must have missed her. I admitted that I had missed her, and then our coworker asked me if I had given her a hug. I said no, and so our coworker told the girl that I wanted to hug her. When she found out, she acted like she thought it was cute (she said ';awww';). So, figuring that it was probably OK, I started walking toward her expecting nothing more than a little shoulder-to-shoulder hug. When I got to her, though, she stuck out both of her arms wanting me to give her a ';bear hug.'; She was smiling at me when she did it, so I went all the way up to her and put both of my arms around her. She laid her head on my chest and everything. I held her there for about 10 seconds, and I was expecting her to be the first one to let go, but she never did- she waited until she felt me start to loosen up. She seemed to be really happy while I was holding her, but since she has a boyfriend and all I'm kinda questioning whether or not she was OK with it... she might have felt awkward.

Hugs are expressions of affection.

She has a boy-friend.

She is a good friend, and comfortable with you.

That's it.

Don't read too much into it.
she liked it and was waiting for ever for you to make that move. You go!
