Do You Think He Has A "thing" for Me
I have been dying to ask a bunch of strangers this question, so I hope a lot of people respond. I have asked several people I know and they are all giving me the same answer, so fresh perspectives from people I don't know will be great!
I am a single guy and I want to know if you all think this other guy that I work with may have a "thing" for me. First of we are both young and attractive, but he's married. I know people say that just because he is married doesn't mean anything, but he does not seem like the type of guy that would ever cheat on his wife, ever!!
There are a couple of reasons I'm suspicious he may have a "thing" for me. First of all, every time I talk to him, my fellow co-worker always says, oh my God you guys were just totally flirting with each other, but I think nothing of it. She tells me that I'm flirting with him, he's into it and is flirting back.
Second, every time he talks to me he can't stop smiling. I have seen the way he talks to other people and he doesn't act this way with them at all. He is very nice to other people, but he talks normal to them. I have noticed that with me he cannot stop smiling.
Third, I was working at a customer service desk and he brought me a folder one day and came behind the desk and put his arm around my chair while he was explaining to me what was in the folder. My co-worker saw this and said, oh my God. I asked her what and she said, he never does that with anyone, he never comes behind the desk and she pointed out he had his arm around my chair. She then said that he is so into me.
Fourth, there have been times when I have caught him just staring at me. Now granted, he stares at a lot of people, but once a co-worker actually saw him look around to find me when I was headed down to his end on the building. When I look down at him, after he stares at me, he then looks away.
Finally, something that happend not too long ago. I had to call down to him and ask him about some of his mail that I received. When he picked up the phone I looked down at him and I said, oh I can see you. There was a girl infront of me and he used a hand motion to kind of tell her to sit back so he could see me. When she sat back, he said, "now I can see your whole face." It just didn't seem like something a straight, married guy would say to another guy. Then we continued to look at each other for almost the rest of the conversation. After we got off the phone he came down to my desk to talk to this lady we work with and he kind of ignored me. So, I thought maybe he was embarrassed about what he said.
Again, he is newly married to a girl who he told me was his high school sweatheart. I know what people I know have told me, but I was wondering, from outside perspectives, what strangers I didn't know think of this. Do you think he may just be overly nice to me? Or, does he maybe have a "thing" for me? And if so, how would I find out for sure without telling him I, even though I'm straight, may be interested?
