I've recently been having these serious feelings for my boss. Lately he and I have been talking more and he's been doing a lot to assist me with giving me opportunities to help advance myself within the company, which I thought was a nice thing for him to do. But also there's been acouple times when I came into work with a snowstorm outside and he's come up to me rubbed my shoulder and said thanks for coming in before walking away. During our christmas party I noticed him sitting with some of his other friends but I noticed he would glance my way a lot during the whole night. A friend of mine told me he's not married and he didnt bring anyone to the christmas party as a date. He's 5 or 6 years older than I am, so I dont know if it would be inappropriate and I dont want things to become awkward at work when Im around him, his office is a few cubes from mine, I see him glancing my way a lot, I would like to say something but I dont want to get laughed at, what should I do?

He didn't become the boss by not being able to communicate his intentions. He probably looks your way a lot, because you're nice to look at. Be patient and let him make the first move; IF those are his intentions. Continue to do your job ... at work. If he continues to help you; that's great. Maybe you'll get beyond his direct management and then you can speak up, if you still feel the same way.

I would suggest, try to talk to him in a friendly manner. Invite for some friendly parties or something like that. You can mention to him, as he has take care of you at work. See if you like his manners. Watch how he behaves towards other people in the office. Is is generally good to everyone or only good to you.
Talk to him in a hypothetical situation, that if he would date a girl like you. And if so hypothetically what he likes about you.
That might create an opening. If he's interested truly, then he might let you know .
Remember all relationships doesn't end up in success. So if something goes wrong, there are only certain ppl, who can really separate business from personal. If you're boss is not one of them, then you'll pretty much lose your job.
If you don't care much about the job, then it's ok. Sex and relationships gets a person closer to one another, where there is enough time and space to find out the weakness and faults of each other. Sometimes it can get ugly.

Look for a better job (you'll be so busy thinking in smarter bosses that you won't even remember about this guy). Perhaps you won't get that job, but in the meantime, the struggle will help you to have in mind this working system generates narrow-minded people who are not able to see beyond the office cubes. It is sad but real and one day you'll find yourself weary of paying attention to the wrong facts of life. A good sign.

Flirt with him. Don't make it too noticeable, but enough to tell whether he is interested, or not. Age isn't a problem, if you don't mind that kind of age difference. Ask him to go to coffee, to talk about business, but actually, don't say a thing about it unless he starts talking about it. Don't be afraid to put a light move on him like that. Do that a couple of times, and then move to dinner. If you have to get the realation-SHIP-SAIL EN , get the wind blow en.
Hope everything works out,

That has the potential to seriously backfire on you, especially since he's your boss, AND you don't know if he likes you back. Or even if he's involved with someone else.
I wouldn't do anything about it until you're ready to leave the job if needs be. Even if it works out, you would be involved with the boss, which means that it would hurt your coworkers (how do they know that you aren't being treated better than they are just because you're involved with him?)

do not dip your pen in company ink. Nothing good (except maybe one night) will ever come of it.
Try to remember the awkard feelings from highschool, now intensify by a million. I know, i've been there.

I suggest that you find a different job (or at least a new position where he is not your boss) before persueiung this.
