Was he flirting with me? I can't tell. Should I go back and talk to him?

A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I did not recieve any help last time I posted, so I will post again.

Hi, so, last week I met this guy, and he was really nice. But I can't get him out of my head. I'm really sorry if this is long, but I'm so confused.

So last week I went to go buy a CD for my sister's birthday, and the guy working at the store was just so cute. He asked if I needed help, and as usual, I declined help. While I was looking around I noticed this guy was talking to an elderly man and was just all around nice. So eventually I needed help to find the movie, and he helped me out. I noticed it was 10% off, and if you were a member, it was an extra 20% off. When I went to go check out, he asked if I was a member, I wasn't, but he said that he'd give me the discount anyway. (I didn't hear him, he mumbled that last bit, I thought he said something like that, but I wasn't sure until I saw the receipt). He's the exact type of guy I always wanted to date. His style is just like mine. (He has gauges and a brow piercing, I love guys like that). But I don't know if he just gave me that discount to be nice, or to flirt. He sounded like he was flirting a little bit. I want to go back and actually talk to him. I'll make up an excuse saying I'm looking for a CD, should I talk to him? Offer him a discount at a store I work at to thank him? (That way I can see him again). Plus my other sister was with me, so if he was trying to flirt, I guess that'd be weird around my sister.

No offense towards anyone, but I wasn't sure if he was gay. As ridiculous as it sounds. That subject came from his questionable appearance. Khaki capris, and a bright and tight button up. Although that could've been part of the dress code for that place.

But what should I do? Does it sound like he was flirting? Or just being nice.

CindyCares agony aunt I think he was just being nice- professional nice, didn't you say he was nice to the elderly man too?... The discount too, does not mean much per se, these days nobody buys CDs anymore, if you want to sell them you've got to be flexible with prices and entice customers . And since the CD was already discounted.. maybe he just wanted to clear his old stock fast.

Said that, nothing prevents you from going there again, ask his help , strike up a conversation with him, and see how the land lies. Your previous exchange was ,I guess, too short to decide which is which.

As for his attire, here in my fashion conscious country that would not mean at all " gay " ( alas : I HATE capris on men ),but maybe in your country is different. Anyway I've never found clothing and accessories, so far, a reliable indicator of sexual orientation anywhere ( unless they wear ostrich feathers and 5 inches platforms ...)
