No, I'm a girl with a where and a why, but not a who or a when. Too much information leading to a dead end--either way, I don't seem to be able to get the result I want.

Shyness can stop you

Ask me - i won't say "no" - how could i ?
Are you saying that you are interested, but he doesn't seem to be reciprocating? Or doesn't he know you are interested?
Have you tried calling him and inviting him over for some Harvey's Bristol Cream?

Nice thought Ty, but he is definitely reciprocating, the problem is that I run into him by chance and while I know WHERE he is, can't seem to predict WHEN he'll be there. Last time I saw him I was too shy to give him my card. Now I can't find him except that I know where his office is...just don't know his name to drop a note."Greatness is not an act... but a habit.Greatness is not an act... but a habit." -Greg Jennings

Say what? He is reciprocating? How so? And, if he is..then what is the problem?Originally posted by MJZiggyNice thought Ty, but he is definitely reciprocating, the problem is that I run into him by chance and while I know WHERE he is, can't seem to predict WHEN he'll be there.

Are you counting a smile as reciprocating?
Is he unable to communicate his desire to spend some time with you?
Where do you run into him by chance...elevator, cafeteria, parking garage?
Sounds like you are going to have to be aggessive and sneaky..and semi stalk. Perhaps a personal day off...to wait for him outside his building or parking garage..where you just accidentally bump into him. Ty is assuming that his office is the "where" that you know about.
Or you can just wait till another random encounter...but, you have to be mentally prepared to make the move.

The office is down a side street--no bumping into him there without being obvious.
We've gotten into conversations but neither is trying to be too forward and thus never got around to names
I just haven't figured out the smooth way to purposefully hand a guy my card when it's not business...

Where do you get in conversations then? If this has happened multiple times..then he has a problem.Originally posted by MJZiggyThe office is down a side street--no bumping into him there without being obvious.

You shouldn't try and pretend you know why he hasn't asked for your name..you are guessing. Perhaps he is just being friendly.
Either way, do you really want to go out with a guy who can't even ask your name..who has talked with you more than once.
Look, if you want this to happen, then you are going to have to be aggressive...and lead him, "oh, i can't believe we've met all these times and i dont' even know your first name." "wow, that is so interesting..hey, i'm going to get a expresso..you want to continue this as we walk" etc.
You can then take it from there....if you know his first name...and his office...you can leave the note.
Either that..."hey, i enjoy talking with you...i'd like to get to know more..how about x?"

I had a scavenger hunt with a group I belong to then we had an early outdoor happy hour with free beer and pizza. I haven't accomplished jack shit. I'm going out tonight so I won't accomplish anything tonight either.
