How do I pursue this relationship further without seeming desperate?

Question - (24 September 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 24 September 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

A new guy has just started working at my place and I have noticed I am interested in him. He is in my age group and he has been around me and chatting to me when ever possible at work. Our conversations are flirty and also he has filled me in on himself lately! However, as he is shy and I have talked to him most since he started I am not sure if he is just being polite/friendly or whether he is interested in me like I am to him. Since he started, I look forward to my shifts. How can I show that I want it to go further without looking desperate and embarrassing myself? Please help.

I agree with the others. Ask him what he's upto and see if he'd like to do something with you. It's the only way to get to know him, and it's not desperate.

Illithid agony auntI agree with GreekGeek. Ask him some time what his plans are for the night. If he's free, mention casually that you're free too, hey wanna go try this nice bar in the area? Or restaurant, or whatever place you think the two of you could go.

Personally, I'd favor somewhere where you can hear each other talk, but the point it just to very casually invite him to hang out... as friends (though don't say that).

Out of the office, see how he talks to you, looks at you, responds to what you say, then take it by ear. Dress nicely, but not slutty. Tight is fine, bare midriff is not.

I would casually suggest going out after work for a drink or a movie.. etc. But only after asking what he's up to after work..when he says he's free, say there is this pub i want to try.. would u like to come with me?
