For the ladies...Assuming You were Her in this situation, what would you do/say? You work at the

gas station near my house. We met a couple months ago when I came into your store wearing my Broncos jersey on a Sunday. You are a Raiders fan. You say, "So, are you ready for the game today?" Me-"Oh, of course!" You-"I have a feeling I will be crying later today (meaning you think the Raiders will lose to the Broncos)." Me-"Well, I hope that you don't end up crying, but I do hope the Broncos win, of course!" A little more conversation...I come in again the following week with a friend to buy something. We talk briefly again. We don't see eachother for a while but do occasionally pass eachother in Safeway and places like that. I'm quite sure that you recognize me and know who I am.
The Question----
I wanted to ask you out awhile ago but it didn't work out because of timing. I bought a hanky to give you as a joke and folded inside, I put an origami lily I folded with a poem written on it (a little humor, a little 'I like you') asking you out, and my phone number is also written on it.
What day would be best to give this to you, but most importantly, what would you say? Would you call? If you already have a bf then would you call to say so or just not call at all? Would you find this romantic or creapy?
Thanks, gals!

It would be romantic if I were attracted to you, and awkward if I weren't. I doubt "creepy" would be the feeling I'd have if I were so friendly with you earlier.

Even so, I would think that giving her the joke hanky first separately may go over better than giving her a series of little presents wrapped up in one. Gauge her reaction from a joke gift, and if that goes over well, then move on to a gift that says how you feel.

Good luck!

Go for it! It's a GREAT idea. But if you run into her at Safeway or somewhere else first, just walk up -- extend your hand -- say "Hi, I'm Brian. I see you at 7-11 when you're working. Must be fate we keep running into each other." And gauge her reaction. If she's positive and smiles back -- follow up with "Would you like to get a cup of coffee together?" Or can I treat you to an ice cream cone or whatever is close by the Safeway or where ever you are.

I wouldnt think it's creepy or wierd because you had already been talking a bit. It wouldnt be like if some random dude came out of nowhere and did that. I would probably call :)

If I were you,I would cut to the chase and ask her out. Women like it when you're up front with your feelings,confidence is attractive.

I think its ok to ask her out, but you don't have to do all that. Look, just go talk her and find out if she has a boyfriend. If not be a man and ask if she likes to hang out sometime.
