How to let an older and "unattractive" man understand that I find him attractive?

Hi!
I'm a 22 years old girl.
I've just fallen for a guy thats about 10-15 years older than me. I don't think I want to enter a serious relationship, but something less ambitious. I'm into him and want to spend some time and have sex.
I study full time at the university, he study part-time and work.
I don't know how to put it, but he is not attractive physically. I would say he is unlucky with his looks. He reminds me a little of stereotype of loser nerd, but without the socially awkwardness, or maybe a bit, but he is not shy of talking to me and making conversation. I find it cute! But I'm really attracted to him! He has a fun personality and actually new I think he is really hot!
We are interested in the same things and the conversation flows good.
I'm pretty and cute myself, above average. And I just don't know how to make him understand how attracted I am to him. It seems like he avoids physical contact and eye contact; in other words; he doesn't flirt. I got the feeling that he is afraid of being a "pervert" (because I'm so young), but I don't know. Facebook says that he is single. Of course he may not be interested in me in a sexual way, but at least I feel I have to try something. Do you have any tips to make him mine?

Sorry for my bad english, I'm swedish ;)

Your English is much more concise and grammatically correct than most native English speakers on this site.

Ask him to come get a drink with you after class.

You sound like a troll... just because you seem too good to be true, like any unattractive man's dream girl.

Anyway, I agree with BackUp as to what you should do. Be upfront, he'll get the message.

if u have to tell that u are attractive then most and bullshit is cause u r ugly and insecure about your look.
so stop that bullshit.

and just tell him what u feel . but dont forget that he is older so if things dont work out cause of that u knew it

Haha! Thanks!

I'm shy when it comes to guys or not used to make the first move myself. I get quite much male attention, and have been comfortable with being the passive one.
I think the idea of tanking drink is good. So I'm a little afraid how he will take it. I don't want to be fussy, but on the other hand: I really want to show interest. Well, yes, I will try this next time I see him. I will try to man up and ask him out for a drink or a coffee! Unlucky for me I don't see him until next week. Hehe

I'm not insecure about me looks in general. I'm not a supermodel (and don't want that look), but a little above average. But I'm a little insecure here, because I think that maybe my looks or age make me inappropriate for him. Maybe he would see me as young and "high" on myself or something. I have this idea that mostly people seek something similar the them self; fat people are attracted to fat people for example. So I'm not a troll.

I don't feel comfortable with telling him. It seems to blunt

Blanda upp then kill yourself.

I don't get the killing part?

Don't ask him for coffee, ask him for a drink. You're not looking for a boyfriend remember?

You're right! But 2 pm? Not to early? Don't want to be seen as an alcoholic

Who cares what you seem like? You don't want a BF, remember?

By the way: would asking him out for a drink be enough to make him get my intention? Or should some serious flirting be necessary? I love to flit, don't get me wrong, but flirting is a two way thing. If he is still just platonic towards me, what should I do then?

I don't want to be seen as an alcoholic by anyone. Haha. And I know for myself that it would be a turn off if I found out that a guy was a hard drinker

Considering you're Swedish you probably don't understand most things

Ja, you're probably right. But I found it kind of brutal ;)
