Awww I need some advice please!

I have had a crush immature phrase but that's all it is right now. On a older man I know, 18 year gap. He works local to where I live. He first caught my eye as he is handsome and always dressed in a suite. Always had a thing for a man in suite. Lol.

Anyways started to notice him looking at me all the time. Then smiling at me this went on for weeks! Honest I know am not confident when telling someone I like them. The last week I have bumped into him everyday, started off with just saying hi, then today he kept asking me questions to keep me talking. I had to dash off to get my kid from School. (I'm a single mum with a 4 year old.

Do you think he likes me, how do I let him know I'd love to date him.

First time in 4 years I have felt an attraction like this.

Thank you for advice.

I know his name and already done a Facebook stalk, (cringe to admit it)lol.

I haven't added him as in think that would come across a little too desperate tbh. I'll wait to he suggests it lol.

He has a kid but doesn't say anything about a partner but as I said he's not on my friends list so everything else could be private.

I know, I noticed my spelling error thanks, I'll never be a Admin assistant my typing sucks, lol!

Thank you, just guess I need to be patient and let it run it's course, if he asks me out then yay! If not then I know.

Thank you.

Honeypie agony auntThere is a HUGE difference between wanting to get to KNOW someone and date them.

I think you OUGHT to start by getting to know him, that means start some small talk. Find out if he is married or single. Like Euphoria30 mentioned YOU DO NOT want to date a married man.

Liking a guy in a suit, I get it. BUT suit doesn't equate a GOOD man or a DECENT man or someone you want around yourself or your child. So don't get too stuck on the suit-thing.

Find out his name, then see what you can find on FB or google etc. Once you know he is single, find a way to ask him out for a cup of tea or coffee away from work.

Tisha-1 agony auntIs he single?

If he is then you could tell him "I would love to stay longer and talk more but I have to get my 4 year old from school. But maybe next week we could go get coffee?"

P.S. the word you are looking for is "suit" not "suite"... English is such a perilous language.

Good luck!

Dear OP,

I don't think you'll need much advice, just a little courage. If he likes you, there's no way you can screw it up. If he doesn't like you, there's no way you can save it, but at least you know where you stand. No matter what you do and how he replies, he will probably feel flattered that a much younger woman asked him out.

Just check first if he's married. Dating someone who is married is booking a trip to heartbreak-island. It's not a nice place.
