Inspired by other thread - I fancy my colleague, help!

Hi all

This is inspired by the other thread that I have just thoroughly enjoyed reading!

I am 26 and work a physical job - only female onsite. I have fancied one of my male colleagues since I started (3 months ago) but he’s quite awkward so I have no idea if this is reciprocated or not and need some advice. All relevant info to date below:

  • He’s also 26
  • On my first day he was the only guy that came and properly introduced himself to me
  • I felt that immediate spark/attraction but no idea if he did too
  • I have been partnered up with him to go to other jobs a few times now which has meant over an hour of being in the car with him one on one to get to the job and the same on the way back to the yard
  • During these car journeys we have flowing conversations about anything and everything (very little work chat)
  • Yesterday’s journey included conversations about relationship status (both confirmed single) and previous relationships (he hasn’t had one since teens), how he struggles on the dating scene etc
  • After this conversation he said “so have you got any single mates” (said lightheartedly)
  • He asked me if I’d washed my hair that morning and when I said yes he said “I thought so, it smells good”

I’ve FB stalked him (obvs) and we have a few mutual friends (same age, smallish town) so I’m considering adding him to see if he messages me and initiates anything. Or am I being ridiculous and he’s not into me?

Can’t help thinking he’s had all the time in the world to ask for my number etc when we’ve been alone in the van together.

Any advice gratefully received!

Ask him out, FGS! 🤣

He's all but wearing a neon sign saying he'd like to date you. Ask him out!

Ask him out

But if he’s interested, why hasn’t he already asked me?!

Perhaps he's shy, inexperienced, insecure, whatever.

Ease into it. No big romantic occasion just "I'm doing/going to X for a couple hours on Saturday; care to join me?" Nature center walk, something easy and low-pressure.
