I made the moves on him, our party was in a hotel lounge and since alcohol was involved I suggested we split a room 50/50 and the poor guy was clueless as to what I meant by it... lol
later that night I had to paint a picture of what I meant and we had a wonderfull night.
I was affraid of what was coming next at work but it was a chance to take. In my opinion, the worse that can happen is you end up shacking up with him and he tells his friends - big deal, as soon as they find out you're together they can figure it out by themselves :P
hope this helps ya :)

Be prepared though if it ends bitter and it doesnt work out... you still have to see him everyday at work- keep that in mind.

 Nothing screams potential disaster worse than the office Christmas party. The possibility of damaged reputations, rejection, and co-workers perceptions of your relationship can all serve to make your work environment suffer afterwards.
I would go for it now, the rewards are the same and the potential risks are greatly reduced.

Statistics have proved that most people find their life partners through work relationships. I sense the attraction between you is mutual so go for it and turn it into more than coffee breaks and emails buddies. The xmas party will put the seal on it if its going anywhere and dont fast forward the future by expecting things to go wrong.
