And when he came to serving me he seemed like any other person, there was no obvious attraction or anything, I thought he was good looking but I wasn't like 'wow he's so hot'. Then he was serving me and asked 'Is that a **** (company name) in ****?' (the town that this fish shop was in- also where I live)So I realised that he'd seen my company name on my work fleece in small writing and thought, there isn't my shop in this town so that's a weird question to ask, and I replied with, no, it's in **** (a Town 20 mins away)and smiled and he said 'aww really, I was getting my hopes up there' and had like not a sad face but not a happy face either, it was more like, an enquiring face, wanting to know more.. And I feel like such a cow now because I didn't respond, I was quite surprised he'd just hit on me and just smiled and thanked him for the fish and chips and left, not in a rush... but left as normal.. And now I don't know what to do? I haven't had a boyfriend in over a year now and if someone's interested in me and I think they're good looking, could that not be the start of something? I don't want to waste the opportunity but I don't want to make a fool out of myself either. Please advise :D Am I reading too much into harmless flirting? Even if it was in a fish shop lol.

Millyyy is verified as being by the original poster of the questionHmm, yeah, maybe I should think of it as harmless then. Although he didn't say much to the 3 customers before me and it was quite busy so it was quite nice of him if it was harmless flirting.
It couldn't be that he was wanting that branch closer, it's a small homeware shop which they've got lots of equivalents here and is more for the older generation so i'm pretty sure it was directed at me.
Thankyou for answering :)

He could just have been making small talk with the customer - that is good working practice. There is often a little banter and flirtatious habits... not too much, but just to make the customer feel like they are getting a good deal.
he may have just been enquiring about the particular shop - ie wanting a branch closer, rather than having to travel 20 mins to it.
I think you should just pass it off as a bit of harmless flirting - did it not make you smile and feel good about yourself? :)
