I'm a 34/F who is recently separated. 

Background: Our separation began 7 months ago.  Our marriage was more like room mates, we basically stayed together because it was convenient.  There has not been romance or real intimacy in our marriage for several years now.  Yes, we would have sex maybe once every other month or so, but it was just sex, nothing with strong feelings.  So it was somewhat of a lonely marriage, our emotional needs were not being met.  The husband has moved out and we are not trying to resolve our marriage, it's done.

Today: There is this guy that I like.  I have actually known him for a few years now just as an acquaintance. Every time we run into each other at his place of work we end up chatting and have gotten to know a little about each other.  I had not seen this guy for almost 2 years and ran into him recently. We struck up a conversation and he brought up small details about me that I had told him about years ago.  I was surprised he remembered those things. Then he asked "you're still married, right?" To which I told him that I am separated.  

I've always had this feeling this guy has been into me, just by the way he looks at me, his body language and tries to keep talking. 

He told me his current work schedule so I would know when he is there. I want to go back just to see him and talk some more.

Do you think it is bad to ask if he wants to hang out if I am separated?  
As a guy, would you be afraid to hang out with a separated woman?

Plus, I don't know for sure his current status.  I want to find out if he has a girlfriend or not, but how can I be subtle about that? 

Just looking for advice. Thanks.
