A female , anonymous writes:

My son goes to school by taxi and has got a very helpful driver. He is chatty but I am not sure whether he generally likes teasing and winding up women or whether he is attracted to me.

He has been very nice to have a laugh with when picking up and dropping my son off and I know that he is in a relationship as he wears a ring but is not married as he told me himself (obviously a commitment ring) but he calls her his wife. He has made comments about her saying she is odd or typically like women and made a joke about her double checking things and that she was overprotective of her children when they were in bed (second relationship for him) but the way he says it he jokes about it.

However when we banter about stuff he loves teasing me, winding me up, can be cocky at times which does put a smile on my face. The last few times my son has told him toot his horn at me and I told him to stop it or I would shove it somewhere and he replied 'like the look on my face says I am really bothered' and ignored me and carried on tooting his horn. There have also been a couple of times after teasing me he just gives me a deadpan expression and I don't whether he is being serious or if he is going to break into a smile and I have started saying to him 'stop doing that' or 'say something' and almost found myself wanting to poke him or shake his arm to stop winding me up and he just carries on and then starts talking to me.

I enjoy chatting to him and the banter with him but can I assume from all this there is nothing untoward trying to happen from his side as if it is I will have to back off and stop talking to him.

I think you have to take it that he is a friendly guy, chatty, playful even. You don't say if you are in a relatonship or not yourself.

Whether he is married or not, he is in a commited relationship, and therefore, you will have to wait and see if he makes a move of any kind.

You don't know what he is like with any other customers, he may be like this with all the women he picks up (his personality in general)

If you really like him, by all means be nice to him, flash him a nice smile, etc, but if he likes you more than a customer, it is up to him to do something about it. (not that he should in his current status)

You don't want to make a fool of yourself by making a move and then being rejected do you?

Let it go its own way all by itself in my opinion.
