Question Posted Wednesday June 15 2005, 8:35 pm

I have a coworker that I am very interested in getting to know. I have heard from several people that he is interested in me too but the thing is we are both shy. We make eye contact and smile at eachother but that is as far as it goes. There has been several times where I have come close to telling him how I feel and asking him out but I am too shy when it comes to situations like this. We dont know eachother personally but we have been working together for about 2 years now and I recently began feeling this attraction toward him. I know I should just say something but I would get nervous. What should I do?

Coming from another very shy person, try a note. It might not sound personal, but this is just a first date. Try something like "We've been working together for two years, which is good, becuase that's about how long it's taken me to get the courage to do this: I think I'd like us to be more than coworkers. How would you feel about going out for coffee tonight?" Just make sure it's handwritten

go up to him and give him a big sloppy kiss...ok not really.
i think that you should just start talking to him before you tell him how you feel. get to know him, like what he likes to do. and if you find that he likes to do the same thing as you, ask him to do that thing (i.e. bowling).
then if you find that you actually like him after getting to know him, then you can tell him how you feel. and then see where it goes from there.
hope i helped.

Go up to him and start talking to him. I know it would really feel uncomfortable to do this, but trust me, it will work. He soon will know that you're not afraid to go up to him and try and get to know him a little better. Hopefully one of you will ask eachother out. Hope it works!! (fingers crossed)

Start out just talking about work or something. Get to know what hes like. Then after you know him a little asking him out (if he doesn't ask you) will be easier. Is there a friend at work that could go up to him with you and sort of help you break the ice? After they get you talking they could just sort of disappear. :)

I may be JUST a 19 year old girl but I happen to be VERY experienced with this type of thing! If you know his address, send him a little gift or something with a card that tells him how you feel. If you DON'T know his address, put the card in his desk/table or whatever yall have. Put it somewhere where he sees it! Tell him to write back... when he does, tell me what he says!
Email me at kitty_kats123@yahoo.com!

Hope I helped!
Best of luck!

I think you should find out alot about him! and try making small talk with him! Its hard, but just say anything that comes on your mind! He might just ask you out for coffee, or dinner, or movies!try not to be shy! work up confidence and keep telling yourself you can do it! which you CAN!

just be calm and cool. if you like this guy the only thing that is gonna be really hard is the first sentence after that im just sure you both will come out of your shell. try asking him to dinner or a movie, something simple. then you can get to know each other.

best of luck!
