I'm a film student and I work in a video store part time (how refreshing no?) anyway there's this customer there who I'm completely fascinated by and would love to get to know better.

Is it cool to hit on customers though?

I don't think it wrong. Just try to get on break when you do it, so you won't get in trouble for picking up chicks on the job.

I met the present Mr S in a Newsagents (I was helping out my friend at the time) He bought a Boxing Weekly magazine. I made what I thought was a funny/witty/sarcastic comment about boxing. He seemed quite affronted at the time! Then he started coming in everyday...and 'hovering' by the sellotape if I were serving someone else, just so he would be served by ME. I know what you mean, I started 'watching' for him, and would feel a frisson of exitement when he came in.

When I left the shop, I found out that he had been in asking where I had gone and if I was 'taken'. I told her she could give him my phone number. He rang...and the rest, as they say 'is history'!

Turns out he used to be a boxer (amateur) but gave it up when he had his nose broken for the second time. He occasionally writes about boxing though, and was buying the magazine to see if they had printed it.

We have been together for seven years (lived together for five). We will be getting married on March 25th (Good Friday). He's the love of my life! Very Happy

Does she/he (I don't want to presume) show any signs of interest in you? Do you 'chat' already? Take it slow and 'read' the signals is my advice. And if you get the knock back...it's all in the game!

Be careful though, when I was sixteen, I worked in a chippy. A lad used to come in that I was 'mad on'...I got the sack for giving him free pies! My Mum was dead annoyed. Ah the folly of youth! I still see him around now and again...and I soo wouldn't! :wink:

Sure, I'd get to know this person better...BUT get it out of the store as soon as you can, like go out for coffee or something. You don't want to give your employer a reason to call you a slacker.

Go for it. It's not like an office situation that will make things 'uncomfortable'.

Definitely ask him if he wants to watch porn with you. Travis Bickle is so underrated as a player.

Being able to orgasm in many languages is a rare talent. I still say go for it. There's probably a reason he's sniffing around your video store.

Thats Travis Bickle in your avatar? I thought it was Michael Stipe :wink:

I say go for it, the communication lines are open and it sounds like more than just idle chit chat. Good Luck!
