I have been working with this guy for a couple of months now. And just here recently he has started hanging out with me on breaks. He sits next to me, we eat lunch together, and we talk about past relationships, etc. Well one day I was telling him about some problems that my boyfriend and I have been having, and he told me that I needed to break up with him because he was no good for me. I don't know but I think the guy I work with may have a crush on me. Can anyone help me out with this one?

He may or may not but he obviously considers you a worthwhile person by offering his advice. You should kindly remind him that you appreciate his concern and make your own decisions based on your own thoughts about your personal relationships. Be careful about getting close with the opposite sex at work. It could lead to romantic feelings which isn't a bad thing, but you really shouldn't mix it up with someone you work with. Keep business things business and personal things away from work. Good Luck!!

It's quite possible he has a crush on you! Has he talked about HIS past girlfriends, with an emphasis on how he's not dating anyone right NOW?
On the other hand, he may just like you as a friend, and is trying to be helpful and supportive of you.
At any rate, you should be very careful before you decide to enter into a relationship with him. There are 2 main things to consider:
1. Word will eventually spread that you 2 are "an item". Will you mind if everyone else at work knows that you are dating him? Can you take teasing or questioning on this subject? Is is against company policy (will it get you fired)?
2. If things don't work out, will you be able to see him every day without a problem? Or will you eventually have to change jobs to get away from him? What if he dumps you? Will you be able to work with him after that? What if the split was your idea? Will he constantly keep coming around, hoping to change your mind?
My advice is, to avoid awkwardness, try to wait for a clear sign of his interest. Then, if you are interested, try to encourage him. He may be going slowly, because he has the same concerns I listed above.

Well, it sounds like the guy might have a crush...but you know in your "heart of hearts" whether he really does. You don't need us to tell you that. As far as "work romances", it depends on the people involved whether or not it will work. It worked fine for me. Just be sure to keep your relationship separate from work. I mean, all your co-workers don't have to know that you are together. Good luck!

Never dip your pen in the company ink.

don't lead him on, even if you think it's innocent, stop it right now. if you think he likes you, don't even do anything that might encourage him. don't mix business and pleasure - learn from my errors.
