First off, I'm single, he's single (apparently) so no home wreckers here!

I've got a crush for a guy at work. He's known for being a bit boring, but I really like that he's not like the rest. He tells it like it like it is and refreshingly honest and straightforward in a world of luvvies. I'm having such trouble getting him to notice me.

First off he's lateish forties, I'm 30. I've got quite a good figure (ish) and wear quite a bit of make up. I usually attract Daily Star readers when I like the quiet, nerdy Guardian readers of this world.

I think he probably wouldn't expect me to be attracted to him. That's not to say I think he likes me or would necessarily go for someone like me. He probably finds me repellent. I haven't noticed him trying to find ways to talk to me, he seems almost angry at me when he talks to me.

I know we share a similar interest so should I try to find a way to talk to him about that? It's been so long I can't remember how you do this stuff!
