Hi Queerless, Just ask him! Making new friends, gay or straight, is much the same as finding a new lover. It often takes a little bit of courage to pursue, because the risk to you is rejection, and no one likes rejection. If I want to be friends with someone, I tell him or her, and usually it works out. From his perspective, realize that he might not like to reject people (who does?), and he might not be confident enough to let you down face to face, so if you get a cool feeling, or if you feel the friendship is only one way, let it go. There are plenty of other eager Jacks around! -Tadpole 

It can be really hard to tell if a potential retail Jack is actually into being a friend, or is just really, really, really good at his job!!! Both? Help us Jacks!!!

How do we know if you are just not that into us? What's a good first "pick-up" line for a Jill-in-waiting to ask?
