How do I make him notice me?

There is a guy I walk past on my way to work in the mornings. Over the last 10 months I'm sure there has been eye contact and a flash of something between us. One of my friends said when we walked past he's looked at me a number of times. This week I plucked the courage to go up and buy something of his but he didn't make any conversation Sad
How do I make him notice me? I always make the effort with my clothes, make up and hair. He's gorgeous and maybe seems a bit shy. Help Smile

Thats really cute!! I'm not really looking anything heavy as came out of a very miserable and heavy going r'ship just over a year ago. It would just be fun to meet someone who you have that bit of magic with!! Go out and have some laughs! Experience life! Nothing too heavy. My ex made me so bloody miserable!

Oooo this is so exciting.

Good luck 👍

MumBod · 25/09/2017 08:43

Just put your best sexy voice on, look him up and down and say,

"I'll have a large one. With cream."

How could he resist?

Annelind · 25/09/2017 08:55

LOL MumBod! eagerly awaiting the return of Shayelle Smile

Shayelle · 25/09/2017 09:03

Haha god i LOVE that MumBod!! Can you imagine?! I'd ruin it by giggling though! Grin
This journey is literally taking FOREVER! The upside of this is that I can say his coffee (which is bloody amazing by the way!) is sooo needed as its taken me nearly 4 hours to get to work!

When he asks how you like you coffee, say “like my men, hot and strong”.

Or maybe just stick with “nice weekend?” Grin

Shayelle · 25/09/2017 09:04

Actually gonna ggling on the train imagining that. Large one with cream! People on the train think im a nutter! Lol'ing Grin

MyHairNeedsASnip · 25/09/2017 09:21

It always good to have a bit of excitement to get up for in the morning! Good luck

Trills · 25/09/2017 09:25

if the guy in question was interested in you he would have spoken to you by now

If the OP has only just started buying coffee (rather than walking past apparently befuddled as to how she could possibly speak to a man who is standing there waiting for people to speak to him) then he hasn't had many opportunities.

I wouldn't expect him to make the first move though. He's at work. She will need to show some initiative.

Shayelle · 25/09/2017 09:34

Not befuddled. Shy. And not forward when it comes to approaching men. And actually not in need of coffee, as have always had one on my journey! Not everything always happens instantaneously, its taken me a while to get to this point.

Shayelle · 25/09/2017 09:35

I will get to the hut in about 20mins. Im nervous already!

Shayelle · 25/09/2017 09:37

Thanks everyone for your messages as its kept my mind busy on the journey!! Rather than sitting here feeling jittery! Nearly there now!

I feel your pain; it's really difficult when you like someone but are just naturally very shy.

Shayelle · 25/09/2017 21:00

All I can do is try a few more times, see if anything cool comes out of it. Not ready to give up yet and forget it. Maybe I'm being ridiculous but hey it's a bit of fun and brightens up my day! Did see him on way home but he didnt see me and I dont want caffeine at 5pm..
