<human>: Can you give me a shortened version of the text?

Secondary account because people know my reddit username (such a headache, amirite?). 

I just moved to a new state and started a new job not too long ago, which led to me meeting an awesome, really attractive (he models on the side) coworker of mine. I've been weighing the pros and cons of asking him out since I met him and, to be honest, I've mostly only been able to think of cons.

One of the biggest problems I'm having is just trying to talk to him and get to know him. My job is very fast paced and I hardly get to see him so I don't even know if he's married or seeing someone or hey, even if he's gay or straight. I'd ask my other coworkers but once one person knows something, everyone in every department knows it, the gossiping is worse where I work than the gossiping in a cheesy high school movie.

The thing is, he seems like a genuinely nice guy, and while I'd enjoy being his friend if that's all I could get, I'd love to get to know him on a more... personal level (wink wink).
<bot>: Really attracted to an older coworker and I'd like to ask him out but there's more cons than pros, what should I do?
