What should I say to break the ice with my cute co-worker?
We work in the same office but far away from eachother and there are not opportunities for us to talk. We see eachother in the hall occassionally and we smile at eachother and say hi but that's it. I'm 21 and he's 26. I was thinking of emailing him something cute/witty but not slutty/desperate to break the ice. It's pretty impossible to talk to him in person. What could I say in my email to him?

I know dating a co-worker is risky because I have done it before...but I'm not worried about it because I won't be working there much longer and I'm not looking to get seriously involved. Just chit chatting back and forth to see how it goes.

Any ideas? :-)

Why not strike up a convo in the flesh rather than going the electronic route?

Do you have any work friends who often go to lunch together? If so, the next time you are all heading out the door for lunch, invite him to come along. That way, you have the chance to talk in a low-key environment and see if there's a connection.
