At the coffee-shop I frequent there is an attractive young waitress whom I think may be trying to send nonverbal signals. I think she might fancy me, but am not sure. Is she merely extending some hospitality to a familiar customer, or deliberately sending out romantic vibes?
When it comes to analysing facial expression, body-language, and vocal stress patterns, I'm way off as often as I'm eerily accurate. 
What would be a good way to discreetly find out of she digs me or is just being a good waitress? The unspoken protocols of Flirting, Courtship and Romance advise againt coming right out and asking, "Do you find me handsome, or are you just being nice?"
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I think we've all experienced something like this.

I've had a girl, well, 3 girls, one formal for about 3 years, and in the end, and after thinking about AS, I'm unsure as to decide if I would like to be in a relationship. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be with someone, but don't know because of the way I am... hope I explained myself my fellow WPers

I think I understand you, my friend. Not sure if you want to be in love or simply in a relationship. Many relationships are shams, hollow and ultimatetly meaningless. But even a fake relationship can seem better than being alone. If the only reason for having a GF / BF is to soothe your sad and lonely feelings, it's ill advised.

Try it.
Try asking her "At what time does your turn end?" (I hope that's the right english expression) and see how it goes.
Of course, first do some small talk, and compliment her hair or looks
If she says no, no problemo! There are more girls
About your second post, I also am unsure about it, specially thinking if I'd like to be old and alone...
