Well if the same applies for guys, as it does for girls.
You'll be able to see it in his eyes and by the way he smiles to you.
And hell if he, at work hangs out with you. I'll say he wont look at you like you have three heads, if you ask him out.
On a side note. Now you know what gues go through everytime he wants to ask a girl out.
Babes, talk with him casually to find out what kinds of things he likes to do when he's not at work. Also, talking with him casually at work will let him come to know you a bit and you'll get to know him a bit more, too. The beginning tendrils of a relationship, a friendship perhaps, will be established.
Determine where, when, what you will ask him to do with you.
Get your words all straight. Say something like this:
"Hey Jim, there's a (fill in the blank with the name of a movie/coffeeshop/restaurant/art exhibit/sports event/etc) on Saturday morning. Want to go with me? I've been looking for an excuse to ask you out and this seems pefect."
Your words have to accomplish this:
(1) actually ask him out
(2) let him know you consider it a real date.
Practice saying the words *out loud* in front of your mirror a bunch of times before you actually say them to Jim.
Be ready to assure him in some way that you'll pay (or not). Usually the person asking pays unless it's discussed in advance.
Be prepared for him to say no. It could be for a million reasons, too, so don't get all freaked out. Assume that he likes you but he really can't go on that day at that time and is really sorry about it. That's as likely to be true as anything else, right?
Don't chicken out. If you don't ask, you can't win, right?
Angie girl, i owe you a big time for the nudge. If not for you, i'd still be wandering, lonelylike, over in the no-man's-land of adulterated adolescent amusements. Now, however, i'm delightedly adjusting to these new surroundings. I'll be jumping into some story relatively soon. My sincere thanks, sweets.
