Why Be Good When Your Best Isn't Good Enough?

So what do you do when you realize that along with your addiction to caffein you love the woman who serves it? I know it sounds sick - I'm still reeling from it and to be honest I'm still confused after confessing to my friends who haven't stopped teasing me. Everytime I would go in and talk insistently for a while to one barista at my local coffee stop, but its gotten personal and I don't know how to describe it.

The overall feeling is about as wrong as computer dating (but that hasn't stopped me from experimenting with that until enough haywire screwup meetings made me want to stop - oh and the standard list of crazy women to which you would get a restraining orders). I just googled the "coffee crushes" and found out I'm not alone. Is this good or bad? I've talked to several men who flirted with their waitress and to their pleasent surprise were missing a drink from their bill and added a phone number, but there is something different about developing an enfatuation to someone with an outgoing personality bound behind a counter.

Will I go forth and ask her out? Even my female friends are saying to but still there is a reluctance. Lets face it, inspite of the changes in harassment law, women are still getting hit on at all the wrong times: the drunk hitting on his bar waitress, the Denny's waitress paying the college bills having to tollerate the insomniac breakfast crew and now there is a whole new batch of "creeps". I'm sad to think I could be one of them.
