I quit that job, and moved to a different retail outlet to work. I never told him I was quitting. But hes now coming to my new work- coincidence or not? He comes in almost every week when I'm workng. He always smiles at me, looks me right in the eye, is really friendly and makes an effort to talk to me. I think he must live near me, because on several occcasions I've seen him around our local suburbs shops, cafes etc...each time I've seen him when I'm not working, he looks me right in the eye and sort of smiles. I smile back but always keep walkng cause im too shy to stop and talk. Last time I saw him out of work, was at a restaurant, and he kept looking over at my table, even though he was talking to his friends. This went on for the whole time I was there.Do you think he likes me? If so, how can I get things to develop further?

 So when you're serving him I'm guessing you guys chat to each other? Or at least exchange hellos?Use the customer service aspect of your surroundings to get a little more chatty, ask him if he's doing anything exciting on the weekend?This is particularly good if you're over 18, getting chatting about bars and clubs is a very easy, casual way to organise to meet up for a drink - or at least see each other in a much more relaxed environment.When you see him around your suburb, wave, say hi, establish a bit of a friendship. It might be awkward small talk at first but it's easy to work your way up from there.

That is pretty intresting, especially since i'd-a pegged the dude as a stalker. He might be a lil shy too actually so you might want to maybe try and meet him in the middle. Im betting you folks live in a small town, so its likely you see each other fairly often. You also say you see him at the store you work at, which he also frequents. Might be a good place for smalltalk. After all, its your job to at least talk to frequent clients. And then when you see him, interactions will seem less awkward. They might feel awkward still, but you at least have a conversation springboard. “You gonna come visit my store sometime?” Is a fairly innocent invite. Go get 'em love!
