A difficult approach

[karelia138]

There's a girl in the rental office in my apartment community that I really want to ask out. All signs are that she's eligible, and whenver I'm in there she lights up immediately. Problem is that the office is tiny, another perso works there, and they're always busy. In other words, there's not really much time or opportunity to make a move...and doing in in front of other people is a little tough. So anything I do has to be quick and clean. Any suggestions?

Basically you are seeking excuses. You like her and want to meet up. Then just go for it. The longer you wait the more desperate you will look when you finally pick up your balls and go for it. Be true to yourself. And the fact that there are other people in that office should be used to your advantage. The fact that approaching her right then and there will show you are a man that dares to take a chance.

Anyway I did have the same obstacle in the train. I thought what the hell let's just try this out and see what happens. Since she was sitting 2 seats in front of me and the train was packed, this was also by no means easy. Since I had little time and it had to be quick I went direct. The next station I walked over gave her a smile and told her she really stood out in this crowd and handed her a paper. Inside the paper was a note: Call me...###. I initiated, and it felt great the rest of the day for doing it. And most importantly she gave me a call.

My advice to you is to take a chance. I guarantee it feels great when you've done it. And before you approach her, first approach a random woman in the supermarket (or another public place) to get warmed up.

Hm, I actually was considering something similar since the odds are highly against any form of quick chatting paying off. Of course then the challenge becomes communicating my immense charm in a sentence or two.
