Should I shoot my shoot or am I reading the signals wrong

[Meme29]

Hi

so I work with this guy and the 2 of us kind of clicked from the word go. We are in to the same things and have a similar sense of humour. He always greets me with a smile and we always have a giggle with each other.

I told him I never had food from a cafe in the city so today on the way to work he stopped off and grabbed me breakfast from it so I could try it. He always compliments how nice and thoughtful I am too.

I know work relationships arnt really recommended but am I reading too much into it and he’s just being polite or should I shoot my shot?

We can't really tell you whether he's interested or not, but if you strongly get that vibe and you're both single then why not?

If you like him then you could always ask him our for lunch or something and take it from there :)

Be aware of 'love bombing' though. Just incase. Because you say he's always complimenting you. And "Narcissistic Mirroring' too because you seem to have so much in common and that can be a sign of a toxic person trying to weedle their way in to your affections.

Look for example for him saying one thing one minute and yet happy saying the complete opposite in order to agree with your opinion the next.

Hopefully hes just a nice chap who is indicating he is into you but it doesn't harm to be on your guard.

I think you should go for it. I don't really get why work relationships aren't recommended. I get that things could get awkward if they end badly, but it seems like a very natural place to meet someone! I've known people to meet at work and had things end badly, but I've also known people to meet at work and end up getting married! It could go either way.

As another PP suggested maybe invite him out for lunch or after work drinks?

I've been with my coworker... for 17 years! And we still work together 🤣 not always in same place though.

Do you know if he is definitely single? If so, you could say oh I've seen this cool... inset cafe museum bar place fill in the blank and say is it something you're interested in? If he says yes, ask if fancies trying it sometime.

It’s hard to tell, having a giggle and getting you breakfast doesn’t scream romance but he maybe all flirty in person. Why not ask him if he fancies a drink. See what he says, you can play it off as mates if he says no

Goodness me. 😂

Just ask him out for lunch or a coffee, don't declare your undying love just keep it casual.
