I (51F) had a hip replacement two weeks ago and just started my physical therapy today. My muscles were extraordinarily tight so my physical therapist was having to do a lot of massage to try to loosen the muscles in my thigh. During the massage, my therapist was commenting on the inflammation and swelling in my thigh and they said in a surprised, shocked tone, “oh my gosh, you’re so hot!” Then, before I could even stop myself, out popped an enthusiastic “awe, thank you!” straight out of my mouth.

I then realized they were talking about the heat from the swelling and inflammation. What followed was a very awkward and uncomfortable silence. My therapist just quietly and stoically continued with the massage.

Oh and my therapist… she’s early 60s-ish.

Don’t know if I should ever go back to therapy or if I made a new friend.

TL;DR TIFU by accidentally flirting with my female physical therapist. I’m 51f.

Awkward!
