Hitting on girls who work retail, getting their number

[Building_and_Loan]

Girls who work in retail can be tricky to gauge. The last time I went in to Banana Republic, the girl who was helping me was really pretty, nice, and seemed like she may be interested in me. When I was checking out, she asked, "so what do you need navy blue shorts for, anything special?" However, I kind of just chalked it up to her being nice and doing her job well, rather than being interested.

But then I got to thinking - because it's tough to gauge whether she's into you or she's just good at her job, it doesn't matter all that much. All you can really ask for when trying to pick up girls is the interaction, whether it's forced or not. The cold approach is one of the toughest and most intimidating parts of dating, but when you walk into the store she works at, she takes care of the approach for you because she HAS to. So there you go, you get your chance without having to really do anything.

I promise I'm not one of those guys who thinks Hooters waitresses and strippers like him lol.

Anyone have any stories of past success and/or advice?

She's just being nice for her job.

It's not like I've done this much lately.

But I've had good luck opening such women by inquiring about what they're like 'off duty' and going from there. This worked with a bank loan officer, a stunning perfume model and another 'retail woman' or two.

Look into their eyes and eye fvck. If her eyes light up its on. I only go to certain types of clothing stores (i have an interest in clothing) and I am dressed in the same style as the shop girl and loads of times chatting to the girl I know its on. You find that if you are a repeat customer it becomes easier. I don't know how you deal with this $hit say in a food store though.
