How can I find out if he's single?!

I have a wee mini crush on someone I work with. I don't know if he's married, or in a relationship, or single and available. I'd like to know so that I can (appropriately and subtly) flirt with him, or NOT flirt with him and therefore not make a fool of myself.

So how can I find out without asking him, or asking anyone else (making it obvious I'm interested in him)? Tact is needed. Help! x

    Wedding ring? Pictures of an SO or wife/husband? Does he talk about his GF/BF or similar? Also, maybe just try going for it (at 50% speed) and seeing how he reacts?

    Facebook him. Even if his profile isn't public, there are ways of knowing if someone is single or not by their profile... Facebook stalking can be very effective. haha

    Also, it couldn't hurt to just try to become friends with him first. Try having some friendly conversations with him and in time you'll get to know more about him.

    That's pretty funny :)

    No wedding ring, no pics in his office. Doesn't talk about himself much. Doesn't seem to be on Facebook!

    I don't know what country you're in...if you're in the US, you can use whitepages.org and put in his name, city, etc. It should give you an address if he's on public record. If someone lives with him at that address, then it will also show up.

    Teehee sounds like me and my ex that I work with. I had a huuuggge crush on him but I don't approach guys directly. What I ended up doing was taking opportunities to bring up random convos with him, once he was receptive, I flirted, and he flirted back. It ended up with him asking *me* if I was single. We dated for several months til I broke up with him but we're great friends, and that is very rare for me as I'm never friends with exes. Lol.

    Well.....I don't have a lot of experience in this area, but maybe you should get to know him? Then ask him out for coffee or something? Maybe im WAY off base here...

    Tee hee, yes we are. Ok, done that; no apparent relatives. I bet he has a girlfriend, sigh. They always do. I should just drop it now.

    Oh yeah women are brilliant at this kind of thing!

    I would suggest, if you're talking to him, to say something like "I can't wait for this weekend, I'm doing XYZ. What about you?" You might be able to gauge his relationship from that.

    Don't be like that, nothing ventured nothing gained!

    Good call. You can also gauge compatibility. If he says "I'm going mountain biking and going to work out a billion hours," and you're into bookworms, you kinda know it probably won't work out.

    Based on that, I'd bet he's on lock down, how old is he?

    Ring finger tan, or social media hunting. if he has a FB you can check or see if you have any mutual friends that may know or have pics on their profile.
