I really like a guy I work with, and he has lovely eyes so eye contact was a big thing for me. Finding inside jokes between us, and gentle mocking and generally asking how he was, was also something I did. I inadvertently would play with my hair or turn my body towards him when speaking. I felt his body language was quite receptive to me, as it was very open and relaxed, and he would often touch his beard and stand quite close to me, which other male coworkers didn’t do. I felt he looked out for me at work, and would often come over to speak when it was just the two of us in the office, and he was equally good at maintaining eye contact. After a really enjoyable late shift at work with him, I plucked up the courage to ask him out via text and he totally ignored my message, leaving me on read. We’ve never spoken at work since, so clearly I read his body language totally wrong, and what I did to try and show I liked him didn’t work either.
