Dear Cupid,

I really like this guy that works at my local grocery store.

I usually go in there a couple times a week to pick up food on my lunch break and sometimes ill catch him in the aisles and we talk for a little bit.

We sometimes get a little flirty and laugh and he's done kind gestures for me (he's written a special code on my favorite drink that gets me it for free) and he'll say... i'm only doing this because i like you.

I have such a big crush on him and have been wanting to ask him out for a long time... i'm just wondering why he hasnt asked me yet?

Lately i've been thinking about asking him but every time i see him now I get nervous and chicken out. I'm scared that he might have a girlfriend and i'll embarrass myself by asking or maybe he's just not into me that way... either way im afraid.

Is there any way I can do this without it being completely painful to do? Why hasnt he asked me yet? Is it maybe because he's at work? What can I do?

Hey TrancedRhythmEar... looks as though one of your theories was right. I did a little recon on good ol' facebook and it seems like he's got himself a girlfriend (judging by the nature of the profile picture... it didn't actually say). Thankfully I looked before I went ahead and asked. I went in there yesterday and we talked for a little bit and he was really flirty per usual. Hm... I'm so confused.... One of my friends said I should just ask anyway and see what happens. Is this a dumb idea?

TrancedRhythmEar agony auntAsk him out directly.

Dont ask about a possible girlfriend.

Chances are ne hasn't because he has one or he's interested and doesn't have the balls nor the confidence.

R1 agony aunta grocery store doesn't sound like an easy place to ask someone out so i'd assume he is worried about all the same things as you. its always a bit scary and a risk to ask someone out. if you are going out one night why not tell him and say if he's not doing anything why doesn't he join you.

It's mainly because he is at work. You should just ask him out instead.
