For the last two years I have had many computer issues. After two years, I am feeling an attraction to the guy that works on my computer. He is a shy guy and seems to be interacting with me a little bit more than just a customer. I have watched him interact with other customers and they do not receive the treatment that I get. He gives me extra discounts, free service and let's me go behind the employee counter, plus he stands closer to me when interacting with me. I am shy, but I would like to get to know him more. He is ten years younger than me. I do not know if he has a girlfriend, but I know he has an account on a dating site.

What would you suggest I do?

If you gain you could gain everything, if you lose you lose nothing.
Don't hesitate.

dont waste time ...u are intrested in him right..then next time you meet him talk to him casually anything apart from the computers, ask some personal questions. if you dont do it now you may regret it later . so if you feel like talking then go ahead.... you wont know him until you ask him

If you know his name on the account online send him a mail,seeing you dont have the confidence to ask him straight out.As for the 10yrs younger thats nothing.Give it a try.Good luck.

Yeah, I would just say hi to him on the dating site and see how that goes. Either that or just say to him the next time that you see him that you saw his profile on a dating site. Lets him know that you're available as well and you could have some sort of conversation about dating. When I meet women in the real world and they ask me what I've been up to recently I tell them that I've been trying internet dating and it lets them know that I'm looking for a girlfriend.

get him out of the store for an hour or so...maybe ask him to meet for lunch with you...he could be pushing the envelope as far as customer/service decorum will allow at work....once he's out of that environment, he'll most likely loosen up a bit and be more relaxed....i'll bet he asks you for a date on the weekend...good luck, Princess.....be bold, go for it..flowerforyou

That sounds like a good idea. My problem now is that my computer is fixed. Do I pretend something is wrong so that I have an excuse to see him? I did give him my card and told him that for all of his work that he went over and beyond what I had expected, I would give him a free massage.

Do I wait for him to call or come up with an excuse to use his computer services. He is on a paid dating service that I do not have an account with

See if the site has a free trial period,if not it might be worth joing for a month so you can talk to him as much as you want.If he is on a dating site he has probably not got a girlfriend either that or girlfriend/wife? doesnt know.Only one way to find out and thats join.

You know, you are over thinking this. Ask the guy out for lunch. You enjoy "intellectual conversations" so you can ask him about what operative system does he think is the best. That should get him talking for an hour or so... But ask the guy out already! Several things are worse than regret, but it is right up there.

Bill that might be a good way to talk to him. He is a manager so it would be hard to ask him to leave the store, but if I join the site I may be able to learn more about him. I just do not want him thinking that I am stalking him.

You could give him a thank you card for all his help.And throw in meeting for lunch some time.
Also,let him know you are on here.And would love to chat some time.

.. or another way to look at it.. you get your business out of the way first.
. and that way there are no strings attached.. because on the off chance he says no.. there won't be any awkward feelings between them.
.. and if he says yes..
.. then he knows..
. it's about him and not his discount..
.. I must go now I . I have a cake baking in the oven..laugh

Ask him how much he would charge you to mess up your computer so he could come out again for a fix-it call....He should get the message with the humor...laugh bigsmile smokin

If he has not followed up on your offer of a free massage then I'd say you have your answer.

If you pretend something is wrong with his computer he will know that there is nothing wrong so that will seem silly. he may have just been flirting a little...with no intention of anything else
