Some reasons I think he may like me:- Always defends me infront of others- Casually drops off-hand compliments into conversation- Always willing to help and do favours- sometimes offers without me asking- Often touches me lightly on the arm/shoulder when talking to me-seems genuinely interested in me, my life, my job, how I am.-When he sees me his eyes do seem to light up and always he gives me a smile- but this could maybe just be reflecting my own?- I'v tried to indicate to him that I like him but he hasn't responded, and I don't want to risk our friendshipWhat do you think?

I don't want to dash your hopes, but it could be explained like, there's a mutual attraction/connection, and he's just a really nice guy.
I agree with Basschick, if he's single..a casual invite won't pose a potentially embarrassing rejection. However, if he's not single, that could explain why he didn't respond to your advance.
Good luck

 Is he single or is he in a committed relationship? If he's attached to someone he's just being friendly so don't read too much into these things. Lots of guys go out of their way to be nice to people and it has nothing to do with sexual chemistry. If he's single and you know for a fact he's not seeing anyone then invite him out for coffee or lunch sometime and see if he takes you up on the offer. If he doesn't then go back to just being friends and don't read more into his behavior.
