So there's this boy I work with.. He has friends in the work place,but I see him sitting by himself a lot just on his phone playing games. I don't know wether to sit by him, and start conversation because I like him. He seems really sweet and down to earth,but I don't know if he's gay. I have tried talking to him previously like I said hi to him twice and his face lit up into a smile. He tends to keep his face in a stoic manner. Anyways, one time I asked him to hold something for me, and he gladly took it. Oh yeah! The first time I said hi to him he turned slightly red. I don't know what to do because I don't want to look like I clearly like him, but he did catch me staring at him one time LOL what should I do because on the 5th it's going to be the last day I work with him because that's where the summer festival which we work at ends. I don't know what to do because I hate awkward situations when you like someone and they can tell you like them but they clearly don't like you. He never makes an effort to talk to me neither anyone else really he keeps to himself even though a good portion of the people we work with know him.
make some contact before you part.. you never know he may be straight but even so if he's nice, he's a nice guy he may well appreciate it take the chance!!
It sounds like he's jut being friendly. I would suggest finding out if he is gay before going heart in hand.
I agree with warty. "hang out" is code for "doing something random that can develop into something unforeseen and hopefully fun"
As an extreme introvert, I'd like to say that he may just be really shy. I don't know how many times I've completely passed up an opportunity to make a new friend or confess my feelings to someone, just because their coolness made me nervous. It makes no sense, but the more I want to get to know someone, the more I'll keep my distance. Anyway, I agree with everyone else about hanging out. You don't know whether the attraction is mutual yet, so it's best to play it safe.
Thank god for codes ... (!) Leo dear, you have your suspicions which you would like to validate. that a- He's gay, and b- He likes you. now if you're going away and he gets this, he would jump at the chance for some contact. "hanging out" is more relaxed then let's go for a drink - am I right Chicagoblue? - and you can be all cool about it. in any case give him your number. IF he's what you think he is then he'll agree, if he's not he's not, and as much as that would be a disappointment but at least you'll have your answer.
