I'm interested in someone who works for the same company as mine but We work in completely unrelated departments.(we have little, if any, work related contact) However, we seem to run into each other walking in and out of conference rooms, hallways ,elavotors and staff rooms. He now always make it a point to smile ,ask how I'm doing .I see him see him around 1-3 times a week if I'm lucky.
There's no indication that he is anything towards me other than just-being a -pleasant friendly professional capacity but I'm curious about him, and therefore want to talk to him more, spend some time with him. For the past week, I've been trying to get his attention by talking to him more but I haven't been getting back any signs that he's romantically interested in me . I ask him questions to prolong what he's talking about but he is always in hurry to leave because of work.He hasn't asked any personal questions about myself nor has he asked for my number.Few days ago, he saw me eating a hamburger on my lunch break. Then when he ran into me upstairs , he said "hi' again and he brought up how I was eating a hamburger and how he wanted to grab it from me. Then today, when he saw me he was like" I made myself some hamburger yesterday when I got home because of you,LOL.I just can't tell if he only likes me as friend or romantically.
The bottom line is, I want to find out more about this guy. For instance, is he single, and is the interest mutual? The problem is ,we don't have any mutual friends or friendly acquaintances, and the context in which we met is a professional one. So the only way to find out is by flat out asking him.What kind of message would that send if I ask him his age then ask if he's married? Would that be awkward?

I'd make a little joke of it the next time you see him......
You: " oh well you're quite the man of mystery aren't you?
Him: " hey? LOL "
You : " well I'm spending all this time with you in corridors and at lunch and I don't the first thing about you such as where are you from, married, kids etc "
And that's your in
You haven't come across directly so saves awkwardness and as he opens up you will see if he is worth pursuing or not
If a guy is interested in you sexually you can usually sense it. He'll make a comment about something physical about you (you look pretty, he likes your shirt, etc.) Or he'll hold his gaze on you just a tad longer. Some guys are very subtle though, especially when it comes to a professional setting. But it doesn't sound like he's too interested, especially now. So even if he's single it probably wouldn't matter.
He doesn't seem like the shy type so I think if he was interested he would make a move. Don't be impatient, take your time with it. Really like LondonCowboy30's script for you when and if you get a chance

It's obvious he is not available but finds you attractive. That's probably because you keep showing him attention.

Yeah that's the problem, I'm not so sure he's at all interested if honest as hes quite chirpy and has a laugh which is the exact sort of thing I'd do at work as it makes the day go a lot quicker.
That's not to say he's not interested but we can't distinguish it from the OP, I think something like I suggested might open more conversation and she will know how to proceed

He doesnt sound like the shy type. If he were interested in you, he'd let you know.
