Is it worth making a move on a guy?

Anonymous
My coworker (I'll be honest, manager) knows my sibling as they've worked several years. This is just a self-owned café.

I did not see him this way -- I think he didn't either. But we realized we have similar sarcastic humor. After that, things like helping each other out, looking into each other's eyes without saying anything. I got COVID and I was the only one he seemed to show concern about (in person and over call -- even though I didn't have his number). I am 100% sure I saw him checking me out -- just once. But I was sneaky and caught him. I assume it's an accident, but he has touched my hip several times and also we had long back to back body contact.

We also do talk a lot. I noticed he laughs at things I say that aren't remotely funny. He asks me benign questions about my schedule once in a while. He also likes to appear in the same place as me, but he doesn't necessarily talk. His close friend (the previous manager) dropped by and he immediately introduced me to him even though I wasn't involved.

Recently, I've noticed a slight tension. I wouldn't say he's been avoiding my eye contact, but just a bit. It's this feeling like -- we want to be close, but if we get too close things will get heated.

I'm trying to see if it's worth making a move on him more directly? I know he's single. I can't tell if he's interested or if I'm just delusional. Can anyone give me any advice?

Clarification: there's a bit of an age gap. I noticed he tries to avoid interacting with other gal coworkers in general, but he also doesn't exactly talk with the much younger coworkers (even guys). I was the one who accidentally showed interest first, which is when he started (I assume) reciprocating.

About the physical contact, the cafe bar is a pretty tight space. So sometimes everyone bumps into each other, which is why I assumed his light touches were on accident. Even though it's a bit un
