Question: I'm having trouble talking to my crush! Help!? I like this guy that I work with, but I'm getting really mixed messages. For example, I've noticed that he walks away whenever I walk up to wherever he happenes to be standing.. I thought he was quiet at work, but I came out of the break room early yesterday and he was standing with the other workers talking to them.. as I walked up, he walked away!\nThe few times I talk to him, he smiles and looks embarrased, but why does he walk away?\nI'm getting mixed messages... For example - when I first come into work, he'll stop whatever he's doing and walk my way to say hello (though I've seen him do this for another girl, too)..  But whenever I go up to him to ask him a work related question, he'll answer me while walking away...  I've invited him out to hang out with us, and he smiled and said that I should give him more notice and that next time he'll come out with us.. Not a yes, but not a no..\n\nwhat the hell is up with this guy? should I even bother persuing this?

Answer: You could be making yourself too obviously interested for his comfort.  You know, I'm sure, how workplace rumors can crush a persons reputation and perhaps he's trying to avoid anyone witnessing anything that will look bad for the both of you in the long run.
