    There is a lady at work who I've taken a liking to. We get along well and spend time together outside of work mostly in groups. I get the feeling that the feelings are mutual.

    Her birthday is soon and she's been stressing about an exam she's set to take early November. Stressing so much that she's been getting on my nerves this week.

    Would it be a good idea to buy her a 1-hour massage session for her birthday. It costs $50, and it would be at Massage Envy - a reputable (I think) massage clinic.

    I was about to purchase it and send the certificate to her personal email address but I figured I'd at least get some honest feedback first. :confused:

    What would even be a better heartfelt gift is if you did the massage.

    Yeah that would be nice, but I'm untrained in the art.

    No problem, you can learn together with her. Might even lead to some hathaway.

    Why don't you use the money to take her to dinner instead and if she says yes you'll know she has some interest in you. If you play your cards right you can give her a massage.... and don't worry about being untrained. There's no such thing as a bad massage.

    That's actually a great idea. She's a virgin though! I think that's part of her problem of being so stressed out. Forgot to include that fact in the first post.

    So you're comfortable about asking about her virginity, but uncomfortable with giving her a coupon to a massage place.

    Something's wrong with this picture.

    A "lady"?? how old is she? How old are you? Is she a 40 yr old virgin?

    I think it would be odd for you to give her such a gift before you've even confirmed the feelings are mutual. Why not just get her a general spa session? It may be odd to her too, if she's a virgin, and she'll have a problem getting partially nude at the spa.

    Super creepy.

    You need to have a little more meaningful relationship before you give her any gifts.

    sweet thought.
    Don't do it.
    A little creepy.

    Maybe a celebration the exam is over dinner? or drinks?
    The massage sounds so sugar daddy like.

    Creepy would be to go behind her and start massaging her shoulders without her permission. Yea, do that!

    Make a gift card on your computer for a breast exam. Enter your phone number and address for the details. Be wearing a white lab coat if she is dumb enough to show up.
