Was he being polite, or should I ask him out?

So I (30F) work part-time at a coffee shop and started to notice this particular guy (28M). I made it a point to greet him by name and try and make conversation when I would see him come in. More so than I would with a normal customer.

One of my coworkers that’s also a good friend asked if we knew each other because of the amount of eye contact she noticed. I said not really but I would like to. She said I should go for it. Normally I’m very shy and terrified of rejection but I worked up the nerve to slip him my number. He texted pretty quickly initially, but after that didn’t seem to respond. I didn’t want to over text him and I know he’s likely busy but I’m curious if he was just being polite by texting me his number or is waiting for me to say something more interesting or maybe just straight up ask him out?

Mainly I’m confused because wouldn’t he have let me know if he wasn’t interested or did I mess up and make it weird to begin with?

The difference between being right and being understood

My (27f) gf (27f) is getting tired of me not sharing intimate/ personal info about me

My (23M) girlfriend (25F) relationship is confusing to me. I might be the problem, or maybe we are just incompatible.
