    My opinion is slightly different; you stated that a mutual friend who he works with gave you his number. I would be a little concerned and would want to know if he authorized you to have that information. If he did not authorize this information being shared then there could be some serious breach of employee records and your friend could be in some serious policy violations. If you know that he wanted this information shared and since you turn to “mush” talking to him then send the text and start the conversation otherwise, muster it up and talk to him at the gym and invite him out for a bite to eat with your daughter and you.

    Make sense to me.

    DO IT!!!

    I'm an aggressive girl.. I'd go for it... of course once you do give him the space to initiate contact too.

    Good luck!

    Did she explain the situation to him and he offered his number? Or did she know him and get the number from her phone book?
    That seriously matters.

    OMG chick, do it! He obviously likes you. Go for it!

    I'm with the majority here.. nothing ventured nothing gained, can't hurt, worst he can do is say no, why not let him know you're open to taking him out, etc...

    BUT... I want to point out that there's nothing you wrote that would make me think he obviously likes you. Guys flirt all the time (and even connect with my son) without liking me more than friendship or a passing diversion (at work, gym, church even). Flirting is fun and makes the day go by faster. Flirting with no taking it to the next level means nothing to me. Even asking for my number means nothing to me anymore, because a lot of guys never follow-through (as if getting the number alone is enough of a victory).

    It's only "obvious" that he likes you when he takes action, like asks you out.

    Here's the female perspective from someone who's had it NOT work in her favour:

    He was in my mind all the time, and so I told him (via text -- I'm ridiculously shy when it comes to this stuff). I assumed he was interested because he flirted with me all the time, but he didn't respond to my text. Guess what? I DON'T REGRET IT. Actually, quite the opposite! lol All that stress, all the "what ifs", etc. are gone, and now I know.

    I could have spent these past three months (since telling him) thinking about him and having the whole "I like you" thing going around and around in my head...but I don't.

    Ontop of it all, I'm proud of myself for actually DOING it. That was HUUUGGGEE for me, but in retrospect, it was nothing. Just a few words. Just a simple expression of something I couldn't help but feel. He knows what it's like; I think sometimes men face rejection more than women...at least in the dating world.

    So would I do it again? Absolutely no question...and I'd do it sooner (than the 2 1/2 years it took me to).

    Go get him!! :drinker:

    Don't do it! If he's interested he'll find you. Continue to be nice to him and act interested, but if you chase after him you'll be chasing him forever. Guys always want what they can't have.
