morgan8222 Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 I am very interested in someone at my workplace. I get asked on dates by several men, but I have no interest in them because my mind is set on this one. He is at a higher position than me and I just cannot outright tell him at the moment for reasons I wont explain. I just want him to know that I am interested. I've been crazy about him for 1.5 years. Once in a while he says or does something that makes me think he may be interested, but that could just be me. What I am hoping is that nothing has happened because he doesn't know I like him and/or he is cautious about doing such a thing (because of the workplace). We work together well and I feel like we "get" each other. I would kill for the chance to be his and give him everything he deserves. I would leave that job if that would make dating more appropriate. I am thinking about inserting little hints in our daily interaction, but I have a hard time getting myself to do that. I am wondering if any of you could give me advice on what I could post on Facebook to give him an idea of where I am at. He and I interact through posts on facebook as well. I know going through Facebook is kind of immature, but I'm trying to figure out any little way I can grab his attention. A picture with a quote.... a song.... just a status....? I don't make cheesy posts, so nothing too out there. I just want to say something that might show him where I'm at and pull a response out of him, which could spark something. For example, the other day, someone posted something about how they have the "Good Luck Chuck effect"... he responded, "I definitely have that!" This is the sort of thing I want to do. And here is my deal: I have been bonkers for this man for the past almost 2 years and no other guy that came by has sparked any interest in me since. We work together well and it just feels so nice and normal. I think we are on the "same page" with.. things. He is single and I know he would take great care of someone. And I truly care about him.. probably more that I should. I feel like there is a possibility that our situation (and my shyness/awkwardness) is keeping us from.. something happening. I will NOT outright tell him at this point. I realize that this is kind of a pathetic post, but I am losing my mind over this man... and well, it is making me do things like this. I would really appreciate advice/ideas.
Poppyolive Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Well, I had a similar experience with my roommate. Wasn't sure he liked me, I liked him...all the for and against thoughts. I wanted to tell him but not out right say it....it became awkward in a good way... Saying night to each other, evenings making dinner & watching movies etc. Anyways it turns out he liked me just as much after almost a year of druving nysekf crazy .....And we ended up dating for 5.5 years. So my advice is to organize a event outside of work. Or ask him for a drink. These things tend to present themselves at the right moment. Enjoy the heart filled fluttering times.
