He has been at my company for about 2-3 weeks. We seem to be drawn to each other in a way I have not noticed with anyone else in a while.
Should I try to ask him for his number? Should I ask him to go to lunch with me- or sit at his table at lunch if we are having lunch at the same time? Should I wait for a company function to sit together with him?
It would not be against company policy in any way since I am not his supervisor nor he mine. We are not even in the same chain of command.
Any advice? What I mentioned in the "lame" thread is not hypothetical. I may have many talents and strengths, but the relationship domain is not one of them.

I'd start with the lunch request, at least you can get to know him better, and it has the excuse of being an innocent question.
If you decide you'd like to go on a date but don't want to ask straight out... you can always ask him to come to an anime movie because "no one else likes them"
That sort of thing...
I'd be careful, because if co-worker relationships go bad, they go
bad but you can test the waters..
