My female friend (22) sends me revealing pictures and touches me inappropriately.

My female friend occasionally sends me provocative pictures, like one where she’s wearing only a thong and in a revealing pose. Recently, we went to the gym together, and she mentioned that she only dresses that way when I’m around. She has also playfully touched my crotch several times; while I was fully clothed, it still felt very direct. This confuses me because we had always agreed on maintaining a platonic relationship. Normally, I might take such behavior as a sign of interest, but the twist is that she’s married. Now I'm unsure whether I should bring this up with her, as I might be misinterpreting her actions, but it all feels quite unusual to me.

It sounds like you're in a confusing situation. Her provocative behavior and boundary-pushing touches could indicate mixed signals, especially given your platonic agreement. Since she's married, it's essential to tread carefully. Consider addressing your feelings directly to her, expressing your discomfort and seeking clarity about her intentions.

Once, I had a friend who sent me playful texts and flirted a bit. Confused, I sat her down for a chat. "Hey, I value our friendship and just want to make sure we're on the same page." She laughed, admitting she just liked teasing me but didn’t mean anything by it. It cleared the air and strengthened our bond!
