Is it normal that i all of a sudden feel this way?

In the beginning I didn't really think much about this guy. I just figured that he was like a regular customer, a regular nice person. But then one night he came in, and bam! My heart just started racing, and all of a sudden I cared. It was like it came out of nowhere. And it's not like he showed interest or anything. It's not like he said something out of the ordinary that would make a girl go weak at the knees. No, he just said what he alway's say's when he comes in. And that was just a greeting.
But for some strange reason, ever since that weird, regular, normal night, I have been seriously gaga over this guy ever since! And when I was at the register I could see my hands were kind of shaking a little, and that is really not like me at all. Well, at least not how I've been in a long time. Last time my heart raced for a guy was when I was, 15. But that was five years ago!! And It's not a crush. I mean, I find him very attractive, but I just never payed attention to that when he came in. I knew he seemed nice, but I just didn't pay attention to what he looked like. Maybe it's possible that on that night I just happened to focus, and see it. Okay, maybe it is a crush.
But whenever he comes around I feel like I'm having an anxiety attack. I don't like feeling this way, because I know that I have this problem where, I tend to blurt it out when I like someone. And I have a huge fear of rejection, and this guy is just an innocent customer. People have told me that I'm pretty before, but still I really don't think I should feel this way, because I have a feeling I'm gonna get hurt. Plus, I don't want to make anybody feel uncomfortable. I know already I'm gonna blurt it out. I know it. I mean, I'm already starting to slip. I was clearly acting strange. And I already told people who I work with. One of them even offered to talk to him for me. I said that it wasn't necessary.
Tell me if it's normal that I randomly just started feeling this way so abruptly, and unexpectedly the way I did. And if you have any advice. Please and thank you! I know it sound's pathetic for someone to be freaking out over a crush, but I really don't know what to do. I feel a little embarrassed too. Normally, I know how to act in situations like this, but for some reason this time I feel more like a child then anything.

    There is something at the height of your pubic region behind the counter. Stop leaning on it when he comes in.

    Yeah! You are sweet. Go for it.
    Just keep in mind not to put your hopes up yet because you don't really know him, you can't even tell if he's single or a good person.
    Is there an age gap, mind the gap!

    Reading this made me think of my friend who has tried flirting with the girl at starbucks, he's one of the good guys and i hope he gets at least a date :)

    Well, I've never heard of it suddenly springing upon someone like this, but I reckon it's normal. I think that you should go for it, just smile, act confident, maybe even ask him out! It's a good sign that your heart races when you see him, you obviously like him, and are attracted to him, so I say go for it! I don't think it's pathetic, at all, I think it's really cute, and maybe the guyu will as well! If your too shy (Which is sounds like your not) one of your work friends could talk to him? but some guys like honestly in girls, so if you blurt it out if can't be too bad!
    Good Luck!
