Dating in your 40's......

    I'm in my 40's and single.
    4 months ago I started work in a new office.

    There's a guy there that I like the look of - he's older, looks very nice, and is quite fanciable.
    He doesn't wear a wedding ring.
    I'm not close enough to anybody in work yet to feel secure asking them about this guys marital situation (or lack of.....hopefully!!!).
    Also it's not a workplace that has many social events outside of work - there is a group of us going out for a few drinks in the next few weeks, but it's more of a casual gathering.

    When one was younger it was all so much easier in a sense.....you'd see a guy and not worry about hidden wives in the background.

    How do I go about getting info about him?? Any ideas would be most welcome.

    What you could do is to observe who his mates in work are, i.e. who he goes to teabreak with etc etc. Then see if you have any common dealings with any of those mates and develop a friendship or get more info in a tactful manner that way.

    Another way may be to become a Facebook friend of another person at work and check their friends etc one of whom may be him and he may leave some clues on his facebook profile.

    Ah-ha;facebook stalking;where would we be without it?On a serious note though op, be discreet about your interest; don't make it too obvious or it might creep him out.
    Still though at the same time you want to let him know you are interested.
