Hey Kids!
I know it's been a minute but I've been a little a busy with work. I promise I'm going to get to posting more. I wanted to make a quick post about something that happened earlier this evening. It's something that's been bothering me for awhile now and I need some advice. I ordered some chinese food tonight for dinner (I know that's not good eating but I haven't gone grocery shopping for the week yet and I had a little craving for some wonton soup) and the guy that usually takes my order delivered my food this evening. Now he has delivered my food before and I've gone in and placed orders in person and picked up at the restaurant before as well. Well what bothered me is that I think he has a little crush on me or that he kinda of fancies me. Now of course that doesn't bother me that he has a crush on me...what bothers me is that I can't tell if he's gay or not and if he is just being overtly friendly. He is Asian and I don't have the best track record when it comes to Asian men and my gaydar! I will not go into what I'm referring to let's just say that it happened years ago and I was living in Hong Kong at the time and read the wrong signals and had to play it off in a way that mind me look super stupid.
Anyway I digress...the guy always makes conversation with me, even when I call in and he realizes it's me. A part of myself keeps saying that he's just giving good customer service. But another part of me thinks that he is going way above the normal customer service. Now he has yet to make a border line move UNTIL tonight. He delivers my food and when I'm signing for it he starts telling me how he likes my new complex and asking how I like it and if it was bigger than my last place and he even said "this place is probably more expensive as well, huh?" the way he was saying these things and the way he was looking at me and smiling the entire time and laughing and his body language was almost as if he wanted me to invite him in for a tour!
Now I know this may make me sound paranoid or conceited or whatever you want to call it...but there are other things that have happened that also factor in...such as when I had placed my first order there after moving into my new place. When he realized who he was talking to he instantly changed his tone and started calling me Mike and said "Oh so that's why you were at that H-E-B in Royal Oaks, you moved over there?" I thought nothing of it at first because I did remember thinking that I saw him. I told him yeah I had moved and that I couldn't believe he spotted me out of a crowded grocery store. His remark..."oh well you probably didn't notice me or remember me, you know some asian guy" now this guy sees plenty of people every day and I probably order from them on average of like 2-3 times a month. Now I know how I am when I have a little crush or I find someone attractive and he is starting to exhibit those same behaviors.
So should I take a chance and make a move? I mean he is cute and there is NOTHING going on with me right now in the sex department or dating (whole other conversation). Or should I just let it go? Honestly, I don't see it going anywhere other than a lay or two every now and then.
So I've got to ask, is he just being nice and making sure he keeps a loyal customer at the restaurant or is it just a little crush and I should play the field a little?
