At the pharmacy that I frequently use, there's a tech that I've always found attractive. He is always very nice and beyond helpful. Over the past couple of years I find myself thinking about him more and more and I eventually developed a sort of affinity towards him. I want to approach him and find out if he would like to maybe talk and see what happens, but I am not sure if he is gay or not (obviously, I am). I think it's very possible that he is.
I've thought about maybe leaving a note (but say what?), or maybe ask one of his co-workers who I know pretty well, about him.
I really can't shake this 'crush'. Should I dare attempt contact? If so, what would be the kindest way of going about it without potentially offending him? I have to see this guy fairly often, so I don't want to make an uncomfortable situation, but I'm having a hard time just calling it a crush a leaving it be. I just want him to know, but I don't want to embarrass myself.
Advice?

I'm thinking about asking his co-worker, who I know fairly well, about him, and get his two cents on the subject. That way I might avoid a potentially embarrassing situation.
I just can't stop thinking about this guy.
i had to deal with a similar situation, only it was a school mate rather then a co-worker. I knew he was attracted to women, but he put off such a gay vibe that i was positive he was bi. I finally told him when we were drunk and high walking down the street and got toootaallyy rejected. I literally cried right then, and most of the walk back to the house, and then cried myself to sleep. It took me a few weeks, but i finally got over the embarassment. I know that it was definatly worth the shot though, cause we are still friends and we hang out often. Who knows if you dont try?
