lexy814 Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Is this flirting?? I was at a convenience store that I frequent last week. There is a cute guy that works there that I chat with every time I shop. Last week, he said something to me , but sort of mumbled, so I just kind of waited for him to finish his sentence. I figured I would just catch up as he went along. But instead neither one of us ended up saying anything and just stared at each other for like 6 seconds! It was like deep eye penetration or something~ Finally i snapped out of it and asked him to repeat himself. It was hilarious, but looking back on it, I began to wonder what is up with us?! We've done that before, like when we accidentally touch hands~Just stare at one another. Then the next time I was in, we chatted for awhile about this health bonus I'll be receiving at work. He got another customer as I was saying goodbye but as I was walking out the door, he turned to me and said that I should "come in and share it with him". He had a completely serious look on his face. I just laughed and said "yeah exactly!" Then when I got home I wondered if he was flirting at that moment! I think maybe so?
carhill Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Well, if this has been going on for some time, if he was interested, he'd ask you out. My cynical side says he's flirting with you for job security based on customer relations. Happy, interested customers are repeat customers and that sweetens the bottom line. His comment about you 'come in and share it with him', while humorous, reinforced my cynical take on things. I can tell you, even when I was young and more shy, if a woman was that 'friendly' with me and I liked her, I'd (and did) ask her out. Most were rejections but that's part of life. He needs to make a move....

carhill Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 It doesn't matter. He has a girlfriend. I was, when married, and am friendly with women but it has no bearing on genuine interest. It's easier to be open and flirtatious when attached because the results don't matter. At the least, mindless banter; at most, an ego feed. Let's say he was flirting. What's next?
