    A tricky-sneaky way: End up talking about apartments somehow and ask about his roommates. That is pretty safe, and then if he has a significant other living with him, he'll tell you. (e.g. "Oh, no, I live with my girlfriend, Cindy...blah blah blah")

    I'm not going to just ask him. Why can't guys just sense that I'm single and I like them?! Ugh, guys....

    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.

    this. maybe get to know him a little before thinking about flirting with him. just because he's single doesnt mean he's worth you time. plus you have no idea what he's like in a relationship with someone he works with.dating people you work with is extra tricky and requires double the amount of vetting than you might normally do because if something goes wrong it can also affect your J-O-B

    Initiate a work happy hour and invite him. Then you can get to know him on more personal level.

    Pfft b/c your passive aggressiveness is our fault ;-)

    Strike up a conversation, srsly. What's he going to do? Not like you? BFD!

    If you want to be sneaky, just drop your pen in front of him. Guys don't take subtle hints. I speak from experience.

    Look him up on Intelius (http://www.intelius.com/) and you can see if any other mail goes or has gone to his address. If your city/state has a property appraisal website, you can look to see if he owns a house and if he does, what other name is on the property.

    And yes, women are very, VERY good at internet stalking. Be very afraid.

    Pass him a note.

    "Are you taken? Circle yes or no."

    Avoid workplace relationships. If anything avoid dating the intern, the IT guy and most importantly your boss.

    Urrrggh. He is one of these.

    I guess we'll change the subject, then and talk about thigh gaps and eating back my exercise calories.

    Both are boring topics.

    you can always plan an afterwork thing- drinks after work -and invite several people from the office- and let him know he could ask his Significant Other - as spouses, and partners would be welcome.

    Yes but they are discussed extensively and repeatedly on here so I figured I'd join the bandwagon.

    So you have a crush on the IT guy at work, huh?

    You could always ask him if his women has ever heard of this MFP site, that it totally rocks...
