He knows me through work, and sometimes he comes across OK, then others he can't get away quick enough.Like today he said hi dance around me for a bit then hurried off, leaving me thinking what? I catch him looking at me and places A LOT.Why is he nervous round me?? Ignores me? Then stares? He is at least in his 40s and I'm 20s so it can't be because he likes me, or he wouldn't ignore me if he did, would he? Reply to this Question

If he so easily rattled in his 40's, he may have a few screws loose. He knows coming on to you would be inappropriate; but at the same time he's acting totally unprofessionally. I say that, because you could take it in a bad way. Some women would. He may even be a married-man, or has a girlfriend. "Guy things" are going through his head, and he doesn't have the professional disciplines not to show it on the surface.
Acting like a basket-case at work around people, is a sign of social awkwardness. Kids would say, he has no swagger.
If he's the nerdy type, then it's just a part of his natural charm. I have a thing for nerds and techno-geeks. They're allowed to behave like he does. If that's the case, just stay calm; and he'll settle down. He thinks you're attractive.
