A question for all the guys and gals out there....if you like someone but are unsure how the land lies...how do you pursue them without being too obvious???

AAaggghhrrr..for almost a year now I've been good mates with a male colleague. We email each other everyday, normally +10 emails a day! Before my holiday I told him that I was thinking of leaving my job and he seemed genuinely sad - Trouble is I really like this guy but I don't think he sees me in any other light than just a friend. We are quite flirty in our emails and when we speak there's lots of eye contact, giggles and innuendo. However, if we're alone he does seem a little uncomfortable almost nervous. I'm getting mixed messages all the time. I'm also scared of scaring him off as I really value our friendship (he keeps me going throughout what would probably be a boring day).

quarky agony auntI can relate completely to this. In a similar situation myself. If you two are not involved with someone else, what the hell, arrange to meet after work,or at lunchtime- sounds to me like you're both just waiting for the other to make a move! In short, go for it! The mixed messages just seem like shyness or fear of rejection - you go girl! I'm sure it will work out!
