Twos Company Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 I've been doing the online dating thing for ages now with but have not met anyone special so was pleasantly surprised when I got talking to a guy who works in my local store. I noticed him and he seemed to notice me and we'd got talking and to me there seems to be an attraction. We have spoken about three times now, the last time he dropped into the conversation that he would be going to a particular bar that night and that he goes there twice a week, told me which nights, and says I should drop in. His colleague was standing there and as we'd been chatting a few minutes by then and I wanted to let him get on, so I left it saying something along the lines of 'yes, I'd like that'. Does this offer mean he's interested in me? and what should I do next..I think he is lovely so would really like to get to know him better but am scared that I may be misreading the signals. I'm no teenager, but I do find this kind of thing hard! Thanks
spiderowl Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 It does sound like he'd like to see you again in a more social setting. He didn't ask you out on a date but then his friend was there so that it would have been potentially embarrassing for him if you'd said no. I think he did pretty much all he could do at that point to get to see you again. But, I'd be wary if the guy is putting the emphasis on you to act. It's a bit like saying, 'here's my number, call me'. I have a feeling that means 'I'd be interested if you were but I'm not going to make any effort, just going to see if you'll work to meet me'. I don't feel that's enough somehow and that the guy should make some effort.
Author Twos Company Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 Thanks for the reply. I will try and see how it goes.
Pasttense Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Did this situation happen in the store he works at? In this kind of situation a store employee just can't go around asking customers for dates, since if a customer has no interest and complains to the boss he could well get fired. So if it was at the store he worked at I would definitely think he is interested.
Author Twos Company Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Hi, yes, it happened where he works and I thought it was a lot for him to even suggest it so that's what made me think he might be interested. The shame is I don't know if I can find a friend free any day soon to come with me to the bar, it might be at least a couple of weeks if I wait for my friend to be free, and I'd feel odd going alone so not sure what to do next, except maybe just see him again at the store? what do you guys think?
