I Like A Guy I Work With

I like a guy I work with. We have worked together the past three months. He is a very confident guy who is a bit of a flirt. We get along at work great and he’s always there helping me. After working with him for about a month, we started flirting and teasing each other. I enjoy being around him and I usually touch his shoulder when I talk to him. He would also stand really close to me so that he was touching me, whether it be my arm, shoulder, or back. We also have great eye contact with each other, neither of us are shy about holding it for a long time. He has told me a few times that he would be at a certain club later that night, which I took as invitations to spend time together outside of work but I have been unable to go due to the short amount of notice he always gives me. I think the biggest problem between us is that I get along really well with everyone at work and some of the guys are really friendly with me, especially this one guy who is gay. Sometimes when he hugs me, the guy I like will either look away or look at my gay coworker with no expression on his face and then look away. I don’t know if he is jealous of my gay coworker or not, but I feel that the guy I like might think that I don’t like him more than just a friend. Unfortunately, the guy I like is quitting. I really want to let him know how I feel but I’m unsure about how he feels. If he does like me, why hasn’t he told me, especially since he’s leaving? I’ve been crying non-stop about this and I really need some advice.

You both obviously like each other it’s just a question of finding out how he feels about furthering the relationship. Sometimes people flirt at work or in other situations with no intentions for anything else. They just like to flirt. You apparently have read much more into your work relationship than perhaps he has. The only way to really find out is to ask him out for a drink or coffee and see how he reacts. If he feels as strongly as you he’ll definitely agree to go out with you. Do something before he leaves. At least you’ll know one way or another.

    I’m 17 n I work with this boy aged 18. We’ve been working together two months. Ive started to like him but I dont know if he feels the same. He looks at me as if he’s attracted to me but he’s also a friendly guy which confuses me. At work on the tills he would try be close to me as possible, tap my back.. Or randomly gives me a neck massage. I’m confused about his expressions. I’m worried that if I tell him he may not feel the same as he currently says he doesnt have time. Neither do I. As a joke I kinda told him.. Well he asked whch girl I would recommend to him n jokingly I said me. His reaction was really and asked why but I didn’t have an answer. He then said I deserved better than him. I really like him.. And its awkward at work.. Cos when I’m supposed to b there but not.. He always says he wished I was working. I’m confused…
