What does this mean?

[MummyBogle]

There's a guy at work I really like, but I've done nothing about it because I can't work out if he feels the same. He's also very very good looking so I think I'm one of many admirers - can't see why he'd go for me out of all of them.

Then the other day we had a meeting - just us - and I noticed his hands were shaking all the way through. I've never noticed that before. He's very fit and healthy and only 30 so don't think there would be a medical reason.

Is it a sign that he fancies me too? Or am I reading too much into it?

Neither of us is in a relationship, btw, so nothing nefarious going on.

Drink issue ?

You can't tell from that. I'm fit and healthy, and 28, and some days my hands shake randomly. No idea why!

How does he behave around you? Does he make any effort to talk to you when he doesn't need to? Do you talk about non-work related things? Does he seem interested in you, or is he just civil? That's the type of thing to look into.

Someone I went out with used to have very shaky hands when he was even slightly nervous/on edge about anything.

Maybe he was hungover.

Or he could be sick. Or maybe he fancies you. Why don't you ask him?

I have a permanent shake due to physical abuse in my childhood. Means my hands always shake, people notice it, I hope they don’t think I fancy them!

Sick, had some bad news, not had anything to eat, just one of those things, a meeting later he was nervous about, fall out with his partners, hangover

Sorry but it's not a sign he fancies you.

Thanks all.

Not hungover, he doesn't drink.

I am probably just clutching at straws, though. There's no way I'm going to ask if he likes me, if (when) he said no, it would make work excruciatingly embarrassing, I'd have to leave! Will just have to keep fantasising until/unless he does something more obvious!

If he's single ask him out!

He is nervous ...

Benign tremor?

Ask him out.

Make sure you are leaving the building at the same time as him one evening and ask if he'd like to go for a coffee, or ask if you can share his table at lunch time?
If nothing developed from that, you haven't compromised yourself, so no need to be embarrassed.

😂 reading that first mumsnet typical response made me lol. Thanks !

Did he used to be an alcoholic OP?
I think you’re reading too much into it.

@Lefty1 why? It’s a common symptom.

What do you class as fit? if it's bodybuilding fit it could possibly be stimulant shakes
