"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Whats up, gentlemen...

I work at a department store, and I see alot of hot girls on a daily basis--I help them find things, and I also deal with them at the register. I am not nervous talking to them at all, as I deal with hoards of them everyday and am desenitized in a way...However, getting a number from them just seems akward to me for whatever reason.

Anyone who wants to talk about girls not wanting to give me their number because they would perceive me as one who does not make money working at a dept store--Please Fvck off...Do not bother to post. I am a college student with a part-time job.

Considering I am getting a girl who is giving me IOI's, what is the best way to get her number, and also how to get her number at the register.

Anyone who is experienced in getting chicks from work would be helpful.

Thanks.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

You got to be careful if you doing that stuff at work. One complaint can get you in trouble with the big boss.
Even if you do get her number and go out if you ever break up with her she knows where to find you or start problems at your work with your boss. Think it over. Be careful.

My specialty! I have gone out with alot of customers,and have gotten in alot of trouble from my boss. Its my first job and I'm not making a career out of it so I figure as long as my job is getting done I will be fine.

I normally approach them "Do you need help finding anything" or "Finding everything alright" and if they say no I help them find it and introduce myself to them after I'm done helping them find whatever they are looking for. Since I work in a "high-end" grocery store we help out the customers,so if I'm feeling it I offer them help out,and if they accept,they know what's up.

Lately I have been approaching "special" customers differently,direct approaching and its worked like a charm so far. The women blush so hard and are so shocked when I approach them its kinda funny. I will ask them if they need help and no matter what their answer is I use something along the lines of,:"Hey I know I shouldn't be doing this at work,but...I thought you were really cute and I wanted to meet you."(I extend my hand)"I'm blinkwatt" and you just role from there.

I have probably approached 8 or so customers. Gone out with 5,2 were flaky. One has a boyfriend but she is more then happy to talk to me and get to know me better,I know she will come right back when she breaks up with her boyfriend.(I direct approached her)

It depends on the type of boss. Some bosses are total jackasses. Others are more flexible.

Exactly the kinda advice that I needed. I really dont have a problem talking with girls--its just the number thing that kinda hangs me up and Im gonna try your line that paces the situation (slightly modified)...

"Hey I know I shouldn't be doing this at work, but...I thought you were really cute and I wanted to meet you outside of work sometime."

I do the whole "finding everything allright?" thing pretty often also, and notice that most people want your help but are to shy to ask for it.

And they can fire me I dont care.

Thanks blinkwatt for the advice.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
