Its always complicated... i seen it "work" as in years later they are now married! although we all thought it wouldn't work (office gossip to take into account too)
The other issue which came from a guy i worked with, his wife also got a job at the company and they used to hate the fact they had no time away from each other... just keep it as what it is and enjoy the friendship... i work with a few girls that given different situations am sure they be up for something, but just means we got a close friendship and some one to give me a hug on a bad day
I would think letting him know your available for dating will allow him to know your not taken or have any strings attached and this might be one thing to do

I have had this situation before and I just think it's too risky because the likelihood is it won't work out and then you have to work together with this awkward feeling.
So I have always just let work crushes go unacted upon.
It’s hard to say for sure. If he’s a temperamental fella and he says “no thanks”, then youl’ll have a constant reminder of the rejection when you work with him. The flip side is that he could say “yes” and you guys could date. You’d probably have to keep it hidden though because your fellow employees will gossip and could alert the boss. Not sure what your company’s policies is on employee’s dating. 🤷♂️
Well i think you should first think about what you like about him, and what attracts you to him. If what you like about him is something you can't live without then you should confess but if it's something that seems like you can get it from somewhere else then maybe work on yourself to fully understand why you have feelings for this guy to the point where you find yourself in a dilemna, and willing to jeopardize your working environment.
It could backfire.. and even cause you to lose your job depending on where you work and those policies... There's a saying "Never fish off the company pier." Nothing truer. Steer clear.
😮😮 oooo do tell? Is he cute? Does he dress nice? Does he have a nice smile? You check out his butt?
Like a lot of things in life if you never try you will never know so go for it & if it works out well done & if to doesn’t life moves on.
when you die, will you remember that "great job" you had 50 years ago, or that guy you told you had romantic feelings and married and had 3 kids with?
So you don't even know if he's in a relationship or not? Sounds like you should definitely get to know him better before you say anything to him like that, though it's not bad in theory, in my opinion.
If you feel comfortable with telling him how you feel do it myself I would never date a co-worker because it could put a bad taste in the mouth of not only both of you but also your place of employment
I would stay Friends. It could be Not Worth------Having to work in a Bad environment if it Doesn't work out. xx
I suppose asking if they are interested in dating and other questions leading up to asking them out can help make it more knowable and less risky
Well, uh, you might want to at least find out if he's in a relationship first.
Do you have one life to live?
Or one job to have?
Nope. If he rejects you, it'll make things awkward at work. Remember, no matter what happens, you're still got to work with him for the time being.
Simples...
It might be smart and safe to find out if he's interested or if he's already taken, either way would be less painful
if u are the boss it would be called sexual harass, and if ur love interest is boss u would be called a whore, u see, people are mean.
Don’t confess. Just throw somewhat obvious hints 👍🏻
If you feels that he is understanding and trustworthy, it's worth the risk
I'd first find out if he's in a relationship.
Not if they dont feel the same
