ok here's the situation. The guy I know b/c he works at a local restaurant I frequent has now made two comments about me wearing shorts. He wasn't crass about it. I always catch him looking at me (esp. my legs). He also makes sure he comes over to my table and chats. Sooooooo, should I leave him my number? I'm guessing he's interested.

To answer the question you posed in your thread title, a lot of us men (read most of us men) are immature cavemen and don't have the sophistication of communication skills that involve vulnerability.

And to address your leading post, just get down to brass tacks and admit that you're interested in him... or at least hoping that he likes your legs. wink.gif

In any case, ask him if he would like you to give him your number in a friendly way. It puts the ball in his court, giving him the perfect opportunity to ask you out.

If he doesn't "take the hint", he is either not interested in going out with you, or too dense to bother with.

Kills two birds with one stone.

I have to admit another strong caveman connection that I display, and that is I have had many an attraction to waitresses. And it is no coincidence that they are women who bring me food.

Do I sense a cavewoman element here?

hmm.gif

Males are just as insecure as females yet they show it differently. It's not a matter of males being ignorant--THAT IS A POOR EXCUSE, MIND YE! Both share somewhat the same insecurities, worries, fear of rejection, all that good stuff that makes one lose sleep at night.

Well, I really shouldn't be trying to give advice on this subject seeing as thus far in my life I have only chosen the worst and only the worst have chosen me, haha. I really ought to be seeking advice instead.
