I have 50 minutes exactly to get this guy to ask me on a date

What do I do?

He's been here a week in supply work. Instantly thought he fancied me as he always chose to sit by me. He would wear headphones when on his own but when I sat down immediately took them off and sat next to me. But he never ever spoke to me.

We both spent every lunch hour sat in silence, blushing the entire time and awkwardly avoiding eye contact. I'm the most extrovert person you can find but I can't even speak to him. He makes me too nervous.

I'm not completely sure he fancies me but I think he does.

He leaves work in 50 mins. I don't work in his department so not really appropriate for me to say goodbye as I've not even spoken to him.

What the hell do I do? . I promise I'm not 13!!! Grin

Just ask him!!!!!

upperlimit · 25/04/2017 16:03

Omg, you'll totally deserve it when Janice from accounts gets there first and asks him out for a drink

WowserBowser · 25/04/2017 16:03

DO IT!!

CheeseQueen · 25/04/2017 16:03

Easy for me to say sat here, but DOOOOOO it. quick! (I'd be exactly the same though, way way way too shy to ask)
How will you ever know what could have happened if you don't ask though? You'll be forever wondering "what if!"
Take heed of poster upthread who did it and now is with him and has kids Smile

BroomHandledMouser · 25/04/2017 16:03

Just ask him! Why do women always wait for the man to ask?!?

Krimbler · 25/04/2017 16:03

Yeah, go Janice from accounts. Take him fro the OP and ride him like a wild stallion.

Mu123 · 25/04/2017 16:03

Oh ffs, behave like a 13yr old and get your mate to ask him

MakingBaconPancakes · 25/04/2017 16:04

'I've got to rush off to a meeting, I wanted to ask if you fancied a coffee, no time now obviously, here is my number if you do -bye'

SouthWindsWesterly · 25/04/2017 16:04

Just say that after today you'll need coffee and a cake to recover. Would he like to join as it's his last day?

DO IT!

LagunaBubbles · 25/04/2017 16:04

Take your top off and see if he copies?

Please do it soon as I have to do DD's spellings.

Ginslinger · 25/04/2017 16:04

ASK HIM OUT NOW FFS

SuperVeggie · 25/04/2017 16:04

Well this is annoying.

JakeBallardswife · 25/04/2017 16:05

Oh, FGS, write him a note. Otherwise you'll regret it. Keep it light, say does he fancy a coffee sometime, if so here's my number.

P.s You are the hottest man alive.

MakingBaconPancakes · 25/04/2017 16:05

Omg. Accidentally leave something behind and see if he comes to find you to return it!!!

UppityHumpty · 25/04/2017 16:05

Is it too late now? Tbh you came across really immature OP. He's probably had a lucky escape. Hmm

loverofbadtv · 25/04/2017 16:05

ask him or you'll regret it!! just ask him if it wants to get coffee one time

Smcg123 · 25/04/2017 16:05

Did you ask him?

JaniceFromAccounts · 25/04/2017 16:05

😏

AllMyBestFriendsAreMetalheads · 25/04/2017 16:06

They've started talking now, right?

MrsChopper · 25/04/2017 16:06

D O I T !!!

You might regret it foreverrrr!!!

Elchupacabra · 25/04/2017 16:06

Put a Post it note on your forehead asking 'Who wants to go for a drink after work? '

WowserBowser · 25/04/2017 16:06

Not coffee. If you are shy now you'll need some proper lubrication. Ask him if he wants to go out and get hammered.

SouthWindsWesterly · 25/04/2017 16:06

Look - it's 11pm here and DH is whining that I'm mumsnetting. Do not have the burden of the break up of my marriage in your hands as I will haunt you.

You're snogging in the staff room right now aren't you?

User7654 · 25/04/2017 16:06

Just throw a note at him with your number on and leg it.
