writes: Okay, I know this sounds weird but I'm shy and need help with this.I like this guy at work and I never told anyone. And I was told that he liked me (and I believe them- just through little things at work- he was my secret santa and i saw him going red when he pulled the name out the hat- not a good liar or good at hiding feelings). He also went red when everyone had a go at him for not helping me when my car broke down. The final hint is the looks and then looking away.Anyway, enough of me rambling. I want to know, should I make the first move, or wait for him to come to me? I've been wrong about this stuff in the past and would hate to be wrong again.Thanks for anyone who does help.

Smile! Smile shyly at him.You need to take it really easy.See if he smiles back.Most of the guys like to pursue.Everything starts with a smile.
If he smiles back say hi.Once he says hi ask about any common event in your office.Speak about Christmas.Keep it neutral though.
Patience is a virtue.The hardest thing to do in a courtship is wait!
