Totally confused

I have an 7 year old daughter and have not even considered dating since her father and I split when she was an infant. I've recently become close to a co-worker that is very sweet and an introverted guy. My daughter absolutely loves him. My daughter comes to where I work in the beginning of the day so that's how she knows him. I'm attracted to how sweet and sincere this guy naturally is but he has very low self-esteem and always makes "downer" remarks about himself. He's quiet and has a hard time getting himself to interact where as I'm a homebody but very social. I always went for the "bad boy" kind of guy and this guy...I guess this kind of guy is the TOTAL opposite of anyone I've ever dated. I don't know what to do, I'm getting really strong hints that he wants me to give the go ahead but I just don't know. I also know that he wants to be seriously involved with a woman. He's looking for someone to marry. Would I be "settling" because of the lack of strong physical attraction? Is it possible to be happy and content with a friendly partnership? I know my daughter wants a father figure and I really do want more children and I will be 36 in February...I'm so confused!
