Having been "off the scene" for years (and years Grin) I'm not sure how to tell whether someone is interested or not so wondered if anyone here could help. I've met someone through work. We do not see one another much (odd corporate set up, sales work) but have seen one another a few times over the last few months at various work socials and meetings where we have got on very well, lots of eye contact etc. Recently we have started to e-mail one another. Just day to day getting to know you kind of stuff, with a suggestion (from him) that we meet for lunch next time we are both in the same place. I don't know if he is just being friendly as I don't know if men do e-mail female work colleagues in the evenings, suggest lunch etc if they just want to be friendly. What is normal - any suggestions please Smile. We are both divorced and (almost) middle aged Grin not sure if the age is relevant but thought that I'd give as much information as possible Smile

I'd say he is interested Smile what makes you think he's not Confused
did you agree to the lunch?

I think he sounds interested too. Go for it!

We haven't managed to find a time when we are both free and in the same place yet (but he has asked me a couple of times when I will next be on his patch - unfortunately he is away when I will next be there).
what makes you think he's not I just don't know how to tell when someone is interested in that way, rather than just being friendly. I guess that I shouldn't worry too much and just see how it goes Smile

In my experience, if a man is interested he will let you know in very clear terms pretty quickly. He's asked you to lunch, he's checking when you'll next be around - wait and see what his next move is. If it's going to be a while til you're in his area, you may find he 'conveniently' has a meeting in the area where you're based, how coincidental! Then you will know!!!

This is exactly how a (previous) very passionate relationship (with beautiful friendship) started for me.

Good luck :)
