I'm the only guy working with 5 women. A 6th in another work group on a bank of desks chats to the 5 in my group, after sharing compliments with each other etc.. Or general chat, she's smiling and laughing, then loks at me with a blank stare for a moment, I look away as if I wasn't listening and she returns to the other bank of desks.

Not being savvy with socialising with women as I e always worked with groups of guys from army and male dominated settings, is she displaying a problem with me? Just asking I'm not rattled just curious

Far too many factors at play here to know

Stop caring and instead focus on you

Be kind and respectful to everyone

Include everyone

Make everyone feel welcomed by you

Then you won’t have a problem

Sounds like she maybe could have a problem then! Only way is to ask if u feel brave enough? Understand if u dont maybe something like is everything ok? What do the others do when she dies that? Or dont they notice? X

Probably nothing. I have worked as the only male in teams many times, best thing is to concentrate on your job and get involved if invited. If the conversation turns to something unpleasant or uncomfortable then point it out and ask them to conduct personal and private conversations elsewhere.

On the occasions I work in the office I am around more women than men and the women are virtually predatory. They are often making flirty comments and inuendo. Fortunately I'm not the delicate type.

I’d simply ask ‘Can I help you?’

I've often worked in environments where there's only been one man and quite a few women. We rarely discussed "girly" stuff and always included the guy as another human being in general conversation, excluding one member of a team is not pleasant. How old are these women?

I haven't looked at the others, though I think they've noticed but nothing said.

Still early days I suppose, I've been there a month now. Might be because she can't talk about things she doesn't want men to hear.

I'll see how it goes and possibly ask her in confidence if it gets worse

I'd hope the older ones would know better than to exclude you
