Question - (8 May 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 9 May 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I have been working with a guy at an office for almost a year. He is 21 and I'm 19 and we get along really well. We're both extremely sarcastic and we pass the day just teasing and joking with one another. I have been crushing on him for a while now, but I get mixed messages from him. He is really cute, athletic, and his family is a huge part of his life and he understands my sarcasm! Plus, he's extremely respectful.

Now this past week one of the secretaries that works in our office told me I should ask him out because she says he's always glued to me. He really is, if I ever leave the office we work in, he'll follow me to another room and sit with me there. This sticks out to me because there is another really cute girl who works with us and he never follows her around. Plus, when I got back from my first semester of college the first thing he asked me was if I had met any guys. And when I left for that semester of school he texted me the day I was moving in to my dorm and wished me a good luck with my semester. However, he didn't text me consistently for the rest of the semester and I figured if he really liked me he would have been texting me a lot.

Yesterday was his last day of work and he wouldn't leave my side when it was time to go. He was completely flushed and he kept staring at me when he was saying goodbye to everyone, so I mustered up the strength and gave him hug. He squeezed me really tight and was shaking all over. I don't know if I'm over reading this and he was really just sad to leave the office or if he was sad we wouldn't see each other anymore.

So about 15 minutes after he left I took the secretaries advice and I texted him and asked him if he had time to grab lunch sometime next week. He is currently being recruited for an internship and told me he had office visits all next week, but he could the week after.

Is he blowing me off and am I misreading his friendliness with something else?

I'm just wondering why he hasn't tried to hang out with me. He has my number and he really doesn't text me outside the office. Except for my birthday.

janniepeg agony auntHe likes you a lot. It's unlikely he'll find another excuse not to meet up with you. It would be tempting to ask him how he feels but that would spoil the mystery. He also could be wondering if you see him as more than a friend. You were so close together so when you asked him for lunch that doesn't really count as asking one out in the sense of dating. That's his job. You got lots to talk about when you see him. In the meantime have fun daydreaming about him, thinking about what ifs, then back to daydreaming again. I know that feeling. It's a great feeling.
