I never flirt with him, because I'm shy, and I don't know what to say. I just ask him regular service related questions. This has been going on for around a year. He is friendly, and does make a lot of eye contact, but that may be just the way he is. The other day he came in with his friends and smiled at me. His friends were giggling and looking at me and smiling when I was serving him. He seemed embarrassed. He was asking me questions about prices of certain items that I know he knows the price of. I definitely can say I received a strange vibe that day that has gotten me thinking. I was wondering if there is anyone who could give me advice on how to begin subtly flirting with this guy. I don't even know his name..and it may seem strange that I would randomly start talking to him after a year of nothing. Because I only see him in the work situation, Im not sure how to approach this... If I met him in a pub or something, I would probably start talking to him (Im not as shy with a few drinks). I dont know why I am so shy..I lack confidence also, even though I have had plenty of boyfriends in the past and receive adequate male attention. If I was receiving the signals that I think I was receiving...and he does like me...I would love to meet him outside work..does anyone have any ideas on how to approach this situation? Or perhaps I should just forget about it :( Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. xxx

 Don't flirt it's unattractive and from the sounds of the experience with your friends there not something he would appreciate. My suggestion is to start asking him about himself. For instance "By the way what do you do for a job?" or "What did you get up to in the weekend?" Then you can build up to "where do you live?" "Would you like to go for a coffee?" etc.
Good luck if you start of with small questions it will seem easy.
