I (23F), like a guy from my work place. He is 20 something and recently joined the organization. I have never talked to a guy I like ever before. I had a massive crush on a guy years ago but I just couldn't approach him because I was tensed or nervous or it just wasn't the right time. But this time, I want to approach him directly. I feel I should do it that way and not just share glances everytime we cross paths.

The tricky part is we work on different floors and I don't know any of his teammates. And we don't usually have anything to do with their team. We just occassionally seek their help for IT issues. I managed to get his name with the help of my teammate. But for better or for worse, my friend and I feel like he got a hint that we visited the team just for him.

Now, I am not usually someone who can approach someone out of nowhere and strike up a conversation. But with him, I feel...if I don't directly talk to him and convey, I will lose him.

What could go wrong? He will say no. He will say he is already in a relationship or not interested in me. I feel like I can take whatever it is...I am ready to take the heartbreak but I want to talk to him. And I don't know how and where to start. Even if I just talk to him...what do you usually talk to someone like this?

Need tips...

He doesn't seem really outgoing. We just cross paths during lunch. I am with my team and him with his.

If he really got the hint as we think, I will update if there is any change in the stance.

Until then, please advise.

Thank you very much and please ignore any typos and grammatical errors.
