Oh, it can be really hard to tell- its good if you're obviously getting along it means your compatible...

Try the touch factor! If they have a beard or curly hair you can try briefly touching it, it will see how comfortable he is and show him you don't mind being touched back. Same thing with his arm or leg, a gentle brush and laugh or big smile.

You will have to be more confident around him, smile bigger, laugh a little more, treat him like you would a girl friend.

You can also get more serious, you can ask for (or offer to do) a "favour" that takes a little while and encourages more contact, like getting a coffee for you (him), helping you carry some parcels, fix something, lend/borrow something... Basically anything you can think of to make the relationship more personal... Usually this will also send off alarm bells to let him know you do actually like him and his company... You can also use the excuse you need some fresh air would he like to go for a walk with you...

After all this extra attention if he doesn't ask you out for a drink after dinner or actively make excuses himself to stay around you longer then he is just being friendly :)

I got my boys attention because I wasn't flirting, I was just being nice and playing pool with him and I hurt my hand, he came over and rubbed it better and I felt the sparks... He did too because he kissed me (to the complete dismay of my friends who had been fawning over him!) lol :D

Now that your on the losers bench you'll get a lot of attention but the rules still apply, if you give out attention and they just accept it and don't offer their own (basically ask you out!) then it's time to move on to the next one ;)

Nessa - you don't really say, but if it's someone at work, you might think twice about it. There are many, many sayings about dating someone you work with. Sure, it can work out, but odds are slim in the long term, and if it doesn't you don't want to have to go looking for a new job - unless you already dislike it!.

That being said, there are (inappropriate) ways you can be sure! ;)

He's a specialist and only comes in on a fortnightly basis....so technically...

I'll see what happens over the coming weeks. Maybe I'm just reading too much into it.

I'm new to all this.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
