Guess I'm just very inexperienced when it comes to such stuff.

But, am wondering "How you could let a guy know that you are interested in him"... without acting too desperate

Some things sound too immature, some just plain absurd... I'm really confused. Let me know how you all do it... and whether it works :D Thanks

I know what you mean.

If you're not that bold, do these three things...
1) WINK. It's a sly way to let him know. "come and get me!".

2) SMILE. It's friendly...point blank.

3) EYE CONTACT. First, look at him for about 3 seconds. second, look away. thirdly, look back at him for the same about of time. It shows you like what you see.

If you're VERY BOLD, do these three things...

1) TOUCH. brush pass him one day and say "excuse me." Yeah they know we're being cute but they love it.

2) CONVERSATE. Easy if you have experience in it. But please don't talk about shopping or money.

3) FLIRT. Yeah this interacts with conversate, but flirting is a whole other level. Flirting can be smileing a lot, complimenting and touching....I.E. nothing sexual please.

Hi
Thanks for your advice bi_candi.
And actually, I think he already knows I'm interested in him at that level.... and since we come in contact daily at work those stuff such as smiling, talking etc. came pretty naturally.
The trouble though is... for a lot of other "complicated reasons" I have to be the one to make the first move... since he can't. But asking him out for a lunch... even a working lunch sounds rather daunting... considering the possibility that he might say no and I would still have to work with him?!
Thanks
