Been doing some business transactions. And have been flirting a little with the girl that sometimes serves me. When greeting her last week I said something along the lines of "Hows the most beautiful girl in .........(her line of work) today?"
I was in a talkative mood at the time. I'm sure many of us have said things we regret, in such moods.
Maybe she felt threatened by that, as ever since shes been more standoffish. Fair comment?

Sounds tame considering you mention that you have been friendly.
Don't sweat it Dave. She may not want do anything more than friendly banter with patrons. If that is the case pressing may make things even more awkward for her.
Maybe she is just tired of her job and it is starting to effect how she deals with customers.
I suggest first observing how she is dealing with other patrons. Then decide how to proceed.
Maybe she thought it was sleazy. Being friendly at your job is part and parcel of serving. Your comment may have tipped the balance into slime ball territory for her.

Yes. Probably not threatened, but creeped a little, especially if you're older. The number of people I know that are waitresses and baristas that have dudes saying stupid little things like "hey beautiful" or worse, "are you single?" all day, every day, is pretty annoying. They're working. Their job is to wait on you. Be polite, but keep it what it is, a professional business transaction.

... and here we go... OVER-ANALYZING everything for the millionth time, while asking her would put you out of your misery...
No need to ask her. Her standoffishness tells you everything you need to know.
Your flirting may have been easy to laugh off before, but this comment was VERY flirty and difficult to ignore. So I would think that she just is not into you and wants to squelch the flirting NOW.
She is doing everything she can to "service" you professionally while NOT encouraging you personally. She is not attracted to you and does not want you to flirt anymore.

I don't get it. How did she respond to your question??
