So I started in a new office and I met this really nice single guy. One day we spoke quite a bit and I thought we hit it off. He was laughing and smiling. One of my coworkers commented that he seemed like he enjoyed talking to me. I may have shared too much information but nothing appropriate, just my work history. I spoke to him a couple weeks ago. Now he won't even say hello or good morning or even look at me. I am not being sensitive if that is what you are thinking. He talks to all the married women. There is one other single girl and he won't talk to her either. I am just so frustrated. How can a single woman meet anyone when no one will talk to me? Just because I am single doesn't mean I want you. I am an older woman in my late 30s so i know when someone is interested. Why do guys do this? I must be really unattractive to men.
If you were unattractive,k he wouldn't have chatted with you in the first place.
If your habit is to say hi or good morning to everyone when you arrive at work, continue with that, and ignore the fact that he doesn't return the favor. Just be pleasant and natural. Maybe management has a rule against fraternizing, so he clammed up.

This is a workplace. It is NOT ok to date at the workplace. The end.
People do not go from having an enjoyable conversation to ignoring you exist without something happening in the course of interaction. Maybe it was something that was said. Maybe someone else said something to him about you. Who knows. However, this situation has nothing to do with basic attractiveness.
Are there skeletons in your workplace closet you revealed that caused him to back off, or that someone else may have told him about you?
Brush this man off. As others have said and I agree with, not a good idea to get romantically involved with someone you work with for so many reasons.
Try not to let your mind tell you that this man's actions towards you means that other men find you unattractive. Work on your self esteem and allow yourself to believe that you are a great woman who deserves a man who appreciates you. Not someone you work with and not someone whose behavior is wishy washy. Continue being friendly to him as you would be if he was a woman co-worker.
Sounds like you are interested in this guy but this is your workplace, and his too. He probably realizes you are single and may have a (smart) policy about not dating people from work, so now he's trying to avoid any escalation with you or give you the wrong idea.
My advice: adopt a similar policy and go look for love elsewhere.
