Shy Guy. What Would You Do

[sk!mom]

You are interested- so ask. I like the luch idea. Call him today and ask if he would like to have lunch one day this week. Once the call is out of the way you will feel better- no matter how it goes.

Good luck!

I think a guy being shy is sweet too and that's why I'm afraid not to seem too forward, but want him to know that I am interested.

He works all over our facility and does not have a dedicated phone line for just him. There's his supervisor's, but I don't think that leaving a message there would be appropriate. What about a note idea?

Does your company have a policy that forbids dating between employees? If you don't know you may want to check.

More than likely your "friends" that are telling you he is interested are telling him the same thing about you! Have your friends set up a get together after work. Starbucks.... Dairy Queen.... whatever interests you. Meet up there with a few people and see what happens!

CJMickeyMouse took the words right out of my mouth. Go with some co-workers for a little get together. Then next week you can go to him and say "Hey I'm going back to Dairy Queen to get a sundae, wanna come?"

If I was that guy I'd probably react best to a face to face conversation without loads of onlookers - a note would be scary! I think you should just approach him and ask him if he'd like to meet up for a coffee after work - no issues over "what do I look like when I'm eating?" and so on

It sounds like you're quite shy too - he'll love that

EDIT: Go with the group of friends first - they act as a fallback for when you get nervous. Swap mobile numbers and then text - sending text messages is a great way to talk as you can always react just how you want without him knowing

My son is also shy and needs the girl to make the first move. I do not know why that is, just in his makeup. Ask him out for lunch or a happy hour after work. Does he have a schedule where he is at a certain place at a certain time where you could try to make it look like a casual run in? Go for it!!!!

As King of the Shy Guys (when it comes to approaching women that is) I wish you my best! Personally, I think you should go talk to him, just a friend conversation and see what happens, let him know you would be interested and see if he takes the bait!

If you would rather drop a note, make sure he knows you are the one who left it. Whether he sees you leave it or what...I think its okay, especially seeing how uncomfortable asking him out in the work environment, set up something like lunch...or coffee after work.

Good luck and definatly keep us posted.....and if any women out there secretly have the hots for me....tell me..im king of the shy guys and completly oblivious to "signs"

My DH was shy, very.........shy with me.

We got set up. He bowled with the husband and I bowled with the wife who hooked us up on a dinner date with them. I was also invited to a Halloween party that they threw as he was too.

Do you know anyone well enough who knows you both and can have or arrange a get together and have you both there? It doesn't have to be anything big either.
