Nobody calls a woman bartender "bar maid" any more. It's considered an insult. A woman bartender is a bartender.

This wasn't at the coffee house, the place is being remodeled. I was at a restaurant.


Do you go regularly to this restaurant, and how do you think this guy knows you go there regularly? He needs to know you will go there from time to time in order to pull that thing through.

This person, very likely, is interested in Kitty, and perhaps has a crush on HER.

I can see why. Kitty has very pretty hair. I like women with pretty hair.

It wasn't MY Kraftie---perhaps it was yours?

The Wolfman, actually, has the desire for more Local fare......

I thought only teens do it.

Isn't the guy she likes a waiter there or something?


No, he works at a coffee house, that place got new owners & being remodeled. I been eating lunch at a restaurant, I got a feeling it might be him, but I could be wrong, but I hope I'm right.

I wonder if this same guy works at the coffee place AND the restaurant.



I never saw him there if it was him, he probably was having lunch there & saw me :heart: he saw his princess, wishful thinking.

Unless your crush works there, I doubt he's been paying the bills.

It's likely the bartender who first tells you that your lunch has been paid for. If you don't have any body language to interpret the situation, you're likely missing something. He could be making it out to be a secret, but hinting in body language that it's him. Aspies classically miss these cues.


At the coffee house, I did miss signs that he wanted my attention, I think he was, this was in October.

Yes. This guy was probably having lunch there & saw me. I don't get a free meal everytime I'm there, I was there today & I paid for my lunch.

That's really cool Kitty! I've only ever seen this happen in movies/on television, making it seem that much more romantic. Whether it's the coffee house guy, or a secret admirer, I'd gather that someone is interested in you. :)

The coffee house is remodeled, Thursday will be 3 weeks, they got new owners. I only saw the guy twice, the first time, he was walking passed me, he turned around, I think he waved, I forgot. I saw him for a few seconds, I think he was in a hurry. The second time I was walking around a corner & I saw him, I didn't see his face, I saw his hair & his shirt, he was far away from me, I felt it was him, I had a panicked attack & walked away, I hid from him, I hid in a restaurant, I saw the guy walking passed the windows & it was really him. His name is Jeff :heart: I feel that he is buying me lunch. This never happened to me before. Why would he paid for a meal he dîdnt eat?

I don't wzant to bubble burst, but it may not be the coffee guy. (I just don't want you to get your hopes up too high if it's someone else - far more so since this someone else may be even more fantastic). Whomever it is, you have a secret admirer!

Start paying attention to everyone in the restaurant..workers and patrons. Someone there each time it happens is of course the most likely.

If you have a cell phone with a camera, you can do a subtle video scan of everyone in the restaurant each time you go in. And then later, look at the videos to see if you can spot a repeat when the lunch is paid.

I've bought coffee for a stranger behind me in line (just a random act, no interest in them). But a full meal, several times. That is the stuff of fairy tales!

I know it may not be him. But how long will this continue? I wish I know who.
