What is it about a man and winking? Is that flirting?

He works at a supermarket.
He just helps everyone there haha. I know I shouldn't think about it too much.

I'm just nice to whoever helps me, because it can be difficult there.

Whenever he helps me, and he is done with the task. He just winks at me and then smiles at me.
He does that every time I see him.

I also made a mistake because I haven't slept at all for few days. And yet he still winks at me and then smiles at me.

Why would he do that?
I just smile back because yeah why not? But I just get confused by him and winking at me.

I don't want to think too much of it but I do wanna know, is he just being nice?

So, I want to say yes, he is just being nice, because I do it as a way of being nice. But I have noticed that it makes some women uncomfortable. So, I have really tried to stop doing it.

Now that I have really tried to stop doing it, I am more aware of when I do it, and honestly, I tend to do more accidentally when it's a woman I am attracted to, and I am trying to be flirty without honestly being flirty. And honestly, I only do it now on purpose when I am deliberately trying to express the fact that I am flirting with her.

So, it did go from something I used to do accidentally to something I definitely do intentionally. Like if a woman is being nice to me or polite, I will say thanks with a wink, just to see if she is being nice to to nice or if she is being flirty... her reaction usually tells you want you need to know.

Like if she looks away or kind of pauses over it... then she is not interested. If smiles back and maintains eye, contact... well then at least we know she is not offended. ;)

To me the eye wink is a way to say, I am flirting but not not really... but maybe so how do you feel about that?

It's mildly flirty. I wouldn't read too much into winking though.

Sorry but I never had a man winking at me. So I thought I could ask it here. But thank you for your reaction!

[ProbablyClueless]

No need to apologize =)

I'm happy to help

Fr it's a creepy thing to do. Unless you're Jason Momoa getting out of a hot tub... it's a terrible move.

[Asker]

It kinda is. I don't know how to react. I think he is my age. He seems young.

Well I would love it if Jason Momoa would do that to me tho

[Huntingnfishin]

I'm a straight dude and I would get a shiver down my spine if jason momoa winked at me lmao 🤣😂

[Asker]

I get that 😆😄

Jason Momoa is not hot. Too muscly and his face tok masculine

[CoolCatMar1]

Most men who did that to me flirted
