girlwithacrush Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 I'm single for the first time in 11 years, and it's been several months since the relationship ended. I'm finding myself extremely attracted to a guy that delivers parts to the company I work for. He comes into the office every couple weeks. When I first saw him, we had that "I think you're cute, I think you're cute too" eye contact. Every time he comes in, we talk a little more. Never more than 5-10 minutes. The thing is, I get REALLY nervous and sort of freeze. I was in such a long relationship, I've forgotten how to flirt or even interact with someone of the opposite sex. When I was younger I never got nervous talking to guys. I had more confidence than I probably had a right to. So this shy, I don't know what to say thing is new to me. I guess part of it is I'm afraid I'm imagining his interest in me. Maybe he's just being polite, but I don't think so. It seems like the pheremones are flying! You can't imagine that can you? And I also feel like maybe we're both holding back because it may be unprofessional to meet in a working environment. So I guess my question is how do I choke back my nervousness and flirt? I could never just come right out and ask him out. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Trixis4kidz Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Find an interest of his in the little chit chat that you do. Most guys like sports, learn some news item about the local team and ask his opinion on it. Another idea is talking about the latest Friday movie that is coming out. You can even make a joke of it - "So are you all excited about the Hobbit, are you dressing up for it?" Or a local concert, or other upcoming event. The point is - you showing your interest, ideally should signal to him that you're interested and prompt him to ask you out. So unless you want to be direct, that's all you can do.
