Was He Flirting With Me?

Now that I have my butt back at the gym I have a renewed self confidence. And thank God, hallelujah, praise the Lord for that! This confidence is maybe not so obvious to the average person but it shows it's self in several ways to me. I wear a little more cute, tight(er) tanks, shirts and pants, I hold my head up higher, I keep my shoulders back and my gut sucked in. I smile more, worry less and sleep better.

On Saturday I was at the grocery store and there was a very cute blond haired, blue eyed, tall hunk of a man stocking chips on the chip and soda aisle and I was looking at diet energy drinks to go in my vodka for a BBQ I would be attending later that evening. I was looking sassy dressed in chocolate brown cargo pants, a dark olive-y green tank with spaghetti straps and my blondish hair long and straight. We were the only ones on the aisle and he turns to me and says, "there sure are a lot to choose from." And he says it in a way that seems to imply he is flirting with me. Now, instead of looking him in the eyes and thinking of a quick, witty come back what do I say? I say and I quote, "Uh huh." Pick up a drink, throw it in my basket and scurry off.

Thoroughly disgusted with myself I wondered, "What happened to my renewed self confidence?" "I have never had a problem talking to anyone!" "Was he flirting with me?" "He was flirting with me wasn't he?!?" "Damn!" "Why didn't I say anything?"

We must seize life's little moments. Maybe he was and maybe he wasn't flirting with me but what is the harm in a little conversation with a fellow human being? You never know, you might make someones day a little less monotonous, gain a friend or you might even get a date out of it.
