Well maybe not a year, yes I remembered her from the first time she visited when I started working there, but at first she was just a nice girl, only recently Ive realised she might be the type of girl Im looking for.
Besides its not like I seen her once or twice and instantly tried to ask her out, shes been here quite few times, I served her pesonally few times also few times shes been around I joked around not directly with her but people laughed and so did she, so its not like Im the totally unknown random guy, she knows me from looks, knows my name and stuff, so its not like im that totally unknown guy that just saw a nice looking girl and isntantly wanted to bang her like a dog.
Mainly i didn't ask her out because as you said i didnt want to be unprofessional especially when there are other customers around, though at the same time people meet each other on streets not knowing nothing about the other person, so would it be really bad if i ask her out?
Id love to meet her in a shop or something where I could go up to her and start a normal conversation, but what are the chances? I dont really go out much anyways so...
