Everything was find until about a week ago, one of my co-workers has started to get more comfortable with me, we been teasing each other back and fort, light flirting. I’m the type of person who puts barriers especially at a workplace, we respect each other, and I really don’t want to misinterpret things. I know he has a girlfriend, but my other co-word mentioned her name...which he has never mentioned it to me personally. But, for two weeks he has been teasing me, for example, if I’m making copies or working on something on the computer he will call me by my name just to distract me and he smiles or he would just ask a simple question just to get my attention, if I return a document or something else he would manage to get closer to me, he steps into my personal space things like that. But, also sometimes he seems to get these distance mood then back to the light flirting, (catching each other glances, teasing, etc..) I mean I won't denied it he’s an attracted guy, but work is work. I just want to know if he’s just getting to know the person that I am or he has other intentions.

She went straight to human resources! So began the most difficult year of my professional life. I was walking a tight-rope until thankfully I was made redundant nearly a year later. My self esteem was gone. My partner and two children didn't suspect but damage to my relationship has resulted. Bottom line: you have plenty of time. Ignore this guy's flirtations. Concentrate on your job. If it happens it will happen. There is no rush - you see him every day. Patience is an absolute virtue. Focus on your job. Patience....remember....patience....

Sounds like he is flirting. Doesnt mean he will go any further though. I find alot of people are flirty even when in relationsihps, with no intention of itgoing further. They just use others to flirt with to boost their own ego.

regardless of any intentions, he has a girlfriend that he is probably having sex with as we speak. he is with somebody else but just wants to have some fun on the side. a lot of guys are like this. and if hes flirting with you and teasing with you, the obvious answer is yes, he definitely has other intentions, but i guarantee you hes not looking for a relationship with you. if he thought you were THAT interesting, he would dump his g/f and try to get with you. my advice, stay away for now. when hes single, he'll come looking for you for more than just a hookup, i promise.
