writes: I'll make this quite short. So basically there is a guy at work that I like and I think the feeling is mutual. By like I mean we both find each other attractive and we do flirt with each other when we can. We do talk sometimes, but because of work we don't get that many chances. I am normally way too shy to draw a sentence together and in my mind I just look like an idiot whenever we talk.I do like him so would it be weird if I was just to be blunt and say we should go out sometime? Or, should I wait for him? I mean I don't want to freak him out or appear too upfront and needy. Plus, I would't say we were exactly GREAT friends right now but surely it would give us the chance to get to know each other more?I'm so confused as to what to do because dating and men is definitely not my forte.Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Dating has always been a little weird, and these days with all the rules and influence of the media, it is weirder than ever. Being direct is a great way to cut through all that bullshit. Its a great idea to say "Hey you're nice, I like you, do you want to go out/have a drink/go for dinner some time?" You will also find that people really like it when other people are direct with us. That doesn't mean he will say yes, but either way he will respect your honest and straightforward response. In my opinion.
Good luck.

Good luck!
