    Please don't!

    He has told you that he's not romantically attracted to you, believe him!

    This is your workplace, you really need to get a grip here.

    Let it go. If you keep this obsession up you'll end up in HR ... you're not at the local teenage disco here!

    Genuine question, OP: why are you here if you're just going to completely ignore all the advice you're getting??? It's like you're not even reading the replies.

    Why are you persisting with this? He has told you straight out that he doesn't want a relationship. You have to respect it.

    If you continue with this in the workplace, he could have a legitimate case against you with HR for harassment.

    Let. It. Go.

    OP please dont embarrass him or yourself by doing this. He said he isn't interested so drop it. You have to work with this guy. Ignore your friend!

    Bring your friend. Leave this lad alone.

    Not one contributor here has agreed that you might be in with a chance with this fella. Not one.

    Look, you have crush on a younger colleague. You've let it get a bit out of hand and now you're caught up in a bit of madness. Very soon it will pass and you'll be able to think clearly, you'll see it for what it is and you'll be very glad that you didn't do anything to embarrass either of you.

    And another thing…

    A tea dance. Like in a John McGahern novel? Where ladies in printed cotton dresses dance awkwardly with scrubbed men dripping with Brylcreem? With room for the holy spirit between them? And say things like, "I have eight good acres out beyond the bog and the brown heifer is in calf, I'd be a good husband to you," while twisting flatcaps nervously in work-hardened hands? He might give you a lift on the bar of his bike, OP, if the daddy won't lend him the Morris Minor for the dance.

    OP, try find someone else to fixate on.
