All coffee addicts alike have their one go-to spot for their morning pick me up. Whether it is the cafe across the street from home, the coffee house next to work, or the nearest Starbucks drive thru, one is bound to find the perfect place, and person, to cure their caffeine deprivation. Soon enough you may begin to question whether you really love coffee, or if it's the barista you keep coming back for. Here's how you tell the difference:
1. You can no longer wake up on Sunday morning and stroll over for a cup of your favorite coffee without first applying make-up or a few sprits of your favorite perfume.
2. You always leave a tip, even if you only have $4 in your bank account.
3. You sit as close to the counter as possible in hopes that he, or one of his coworkers, will reveal information that will assist you in finding him on social media.
4. You refer to him as "your" barista when talking to your friends.
5. You give up your favorite soy mocha with extra chocolate and whipped cream for the tea he recommended that tastes like dirt.
6. You compliment him on what he is wearing even though his wardrobe only consists of jeans and flannels.
7. You decide to take your coffee to go once you realize he isn't working.
8. You stop in so often you know his work schedule.
9. You consider getting coffee at 8 p.m. knowing that you will be up all night.
10. You refuse to get coffee anywhere else because you insist that it always tastes better when he makes it.
