Hiya honey!
Not seen you online for ~ages~
Hope you had a great Xmas and a wonderful 2002!
What did santa bring you?

Anyway, can I ask you for some help please?
I really don't know what to do next.huh

There's this young man whom I'd swear is interested in me, he works in my local newsagents. He takes his time serving me, always makes idle chat, asking me questions, etc. I've noticed when I've been browsing in the shop that he doesn't do it with ~other~ customers bigeyes
He's been really good all year, cashing coupons for me, even when I didn't get the newspaper concernedblush so I decided to be really bold & chose him a Christmas card, which, I thought was pretty damned suggestive. biggrin
It showed a couple kissing under the mistletoe and there was a badge attached with mistletoe at the top, and underneath it said "Ask me - I might"holly kiss

Well I went in every day up till Christmas Eve but he wasn't there, and as I wasn't going to hand it over to any of the other assistants, I was going to give up, but I thought yesterday morning "one last try" so I nipped for my paper & he was there. After he served me I handed him his card & apologized for it being late, as I'd not seen him all the previous week.
He thanked me & I left & later there was a knock on my door & I almost died of shock to see him stood there with a big smile and a red envelope in his hand. I asked him in but he said sorry, he had to go but he brought me a card. I said thanks, then he turned to go so I asked him for a hug for Christmas! He came forward and hugged me & as he pulled away we both went to kiss each other & our lips met.
I *know* from past bitter experience that if a man is just being polite & a woman goes to kiss him, he will offer his cheek.
It's just one of those body language things.
Anyway, after he left I tore open the envelope with relish and it was a "Happy New Year" bubblegum card, the sort my daughter buys meerm and inside he'd written "To Annie & family, All the Best for the New Year - Gav" and inside the card was a scratchcard.

So, you can imagine - it's took months to get him to my door, and it was a late Xmas card that did it. What happens now? Do I offer him my phone number? Wait for him to ask me out? Get all dressed up to go buy my paper?
Please help!

Dearest Babe,
You have come to the right source, I have to beat them off with sticks! Now is the time to deck the halls! Make sure when you go to get your news that you sparkle! Add that little bit of extra blush and don't be bashful. He probably is. Just show some xtra flash and point his eye in the right direction. Don't worry, bee happy.My philosopy is that it is better to have loved and lost than never loved at all. Go for it, ask him over for some hot cocoa or irish coffee. And I know you will make yourself smell edible when he's there because afterall you are the real cake. One more thing that is guaranteed to work: If you can find some essential oil of nutmeg and essential oil of ylang ylang and have that simmering when he visits I will guarantee you some aphrodisiac results. He won't be able to resist your charms. Have a Happy New Year and know that I am praying for all. I Believe, I Believe...think happy thoughts...Tinkerbell...listen and angel just got her wings!
Worlds of Love,
JLCtheTTP
