15-Month silent relationship with a Barber. Highly restricted environment, zero resets over massive gaps. Want a human gut-check on our timeline.

That said, if he cuts my son's hair again, I'll try to find an opportunity to give him my number.

Haven't you already now messaged him?

I've now messaged him directly to ask if he wants to take things further.

He can reply to you if he likes and you can exchange numbers that way. You opened the channel. How long has it been since you sent that message? Can you see if he has opened and read it?

Pursuit looks different when the circumstances that dont make it easy, like if you met someone at a bar.  Workplace has constraints, client, co-workers, boos. He made his interest in me very obvious.  Which I'm sure you won't agree with, but none of you who have called this fantasy have been sitting there seeing how we interact.  I know i don't have a relationship with him and that takes actual dating but it doesn't discount what he has done to get my attention and show me he is into me.

I did message him.  I can't see if he has read it because I don't follow him on instagram and his account is private, so it goes to his message requests.

Next time my son gets his hair cut if he does it or there are not co-workers, clients or his boss close by I will give him my phone number
