writes: I had a guy come into my workplace to sell an up to date photocopier. I must admit I thought he was good looking. He did the usual body language, shaking hands and turning his body towards me.I told him I would be on holiday for a week and if all agreed to have installed when I was back in.When I got back in, I emailed the guy to ask if everything had been sorted. He said yes and apologised for not contacting me as he thought I was still on holiday and did I want the photocopier installed the next day but I said the following week would do.I asked if the installer could train me on the p/c and scanner but he said that he would be there for the installation and if I needed any further training he would be happy to come along. He was there for the installation and he shook my my hand and asked if I had had a good holiday which he had already asked me by email, he stood hands on hips, very upright facing towards me whilst talking and then whilst I was at my desk he leant over the photocopier to talk to me and touched his mouth a little. He shook my hand when he left and said he would ring me to confirm when he would see me next week. He did not do this so I emailed him and also asked if I could have another business card. He came back to me to confirm his installer was coming back today and that he was coming next week but didn't mention about the business card but 'if I had any questions before next week please don't hesitate to contact him'The installer came in today and said that I wasn't bothering the sales guy at all. He trained me on the p/c and scanner and I said that I might as well cancel the sales guy and he said 'no he can still come, he could do with working for his money' and as he left I asked him was he sure that the guy should come and he said 'you can surprise him at what you know'.I emailed the sales guy and asked him a question about the photocopier and said I would see him next week and that he wouldn't need to be with me long and he replied and finished 'I look forward to seeing you next week'.I sense he likes me but I'm not sure if I am reading too much into this and don't want to make a fool of myself by getting him to come in unnecessarily when he doesn't need to.Can someone advise me on this.

reader, anonymous, writes (3 September 2008): This is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThe sales guy came back into today. I couldn't tell if he arched his eyebrows but I'm sure he made made himself look taller and he asked me a couple of questions which were really basic conversation. He did also turn towards me slightly crossing one leg over the other and was certainly happy talking to me. He then just said 'you've got my contact details if you need me'. We shook hands and then he left.
Part of me felt there was some positive body language there but maybe it was 'sales' body language after all.
