Hi robots. Literal sperg here.
My boss has started walking up behind me when I'm sitting at my desk or in meetings and pressing down on my shoulders, often while talking to me or the team I work in. He doesn't do anything except just pressing down on them. I've never seen him do this to anyone else. I'm not great at reading people so I'm asking you guys, what does this mean? Is it a show of dominance? is he in to me? Also how should I react to it? My strategy so far has been to pretend like nothing is happening.

you're being beta af next time you see him coming towards you for another show of dominance make sure you move out the way when he tries it the cunt
>>34815891
he wants into your boipucci
>>34815891
Loudly ask why hes so close to you.
This will ensure embarrassment no doubt.
>>34815945
Before embarrassing him I'd like to understand why he's doing it. From the answers so far I'm guessing this is not a normal thing to do though.
Yeah, he's into you. You can turn all of that into your favor though. Raises and privileges will come your way. Just don't upset him or he will gut your job.
>>34815891
He probably thinks you're gay due to you being a beta autist shy virgin.
It also happens that he's gay too and he's trying to fuck you.
>>34815891
It's not as weird as you think, or at least it might not be. If you have a good working relationship, have known each other for a while, etc. then it's just a way of showing (brotherly) affection. Some guys do it, some don't.
If, on the other hand, he likes to bully you or treat you badly it's probably just a way to screw with you.

>>34815891
addendum: if he knows you're a sperg, and you're the only atypical there, it can also be a way of showing that you're welcome and/or demonstrating protection of you.
>>34815891
From what you saying he's not very handsy with anyone else. If that's the case, yeah, he's trying to check if you're okay with him "invading" your personal space, hoping that 1- that will lead to you being okay with him making more aggressive moves on you later, 2- hoping that you will do the same to him.
Your boss just thinks you're under a lot of tension. Your shoulders are where you keep all of it and it's his way of trying to get you to chill out.
Just calm down a bit, dude. Relax.
tfw no onii-chan boss to protect me
>>34815891
Next time he does this just moan very loudly. Either he stops or you get some dick after the meeting. Can't lose
>>34817454
lmao good kek
is he grabbing you or sort of just patting your back?
it's can be either dominance or trying to comfort you either way
>>34818002
He holds my shoulders and presses down a bit. Usually for pretty long while talking to the team. It's not uncomfortable. I'm just a bit unsure how to react to it.
>>34818043
Grab his hand when he holds your shoulder, and start fondling it while acting like nothing is out of the ordinary.
>>34817307
>>34817321
This.
If he bullies you in other situations, embarrass him. If not, it's probably meant as a positive gesture, so don't feel alarmed by it
Also it's unlikely that it has any gay connotations
>>34818332
This does seem like the most sensible answer. I also doubt he's interested in me in that way. I would probably have picked up on something besides this.
He's nice/neutral otherwise. We don't really talk that much since he doesn't handle most of the day to day stuff.
So in conclusion I should just relax and not think about that much right?
>>34818418
Yeah, don't think about it. He just noticed you're a stressed autismo and is trying to calm you down.
>>34818418
and not think about it that much right?*
>>34818438
Fair enough, thanks robots.
>>34818418
Yes, it's probably a positive thing actually
It suggests
>you're not coming off as weird
>he doesn't see you as childish or immature
>you seem serious without being stuck up
Chances are you're a younger guy, probably a bit more formal and serious than your peers, and he sees that as a good thing
So just relax and don't think too much about it
>>34815891
Post nude dolls
>>34815891
It's a show of dominance and subtle hint that he wants you to grow up more. I would suggest wriggling out of the maneuver with a casual "excuse me" or excuse me sir.
>>34815891
It's a fatherly gesture. Don't get so autismis about it
