Met an awesome girl last night while working, had a wee chat with her, found out where she is from, her age, that she lives alone ... and she only stays like 2 mins from where I live. I wil lbe honest and say I totally bottled asking for her number, but I didn't want to put her on the spot .... regreting it now !!

Should I send some flowers with a note? Go to her house and just ask her out? Or just leave it to chance that I bump into her again?

No idea what she thought, or if she thought anything at all ???

Cheers

Just before closing at your local petrol station some fantastic bargins on the flowers, leave in sink of water overnight to revive,
but just take the flowers straight round .

If you know her address you should watch her through her windows and follow her for a few weeks imo.

It's best to see how someone lives before you get involved with them, for all you know she might be a right weirdo.

Don't show up at the house whatever you do, she'll write you off as a weirdo straight away.

Leave it to chance, if she lives local you'll bump into her again.

If she's remotely interested in you, she'll come back to where you work. She knows where to find you, after all.

Be ready with some good banter. Also find out some irrelevant detail about something she likes, and bring it up the next time.

Do NOT send her flowers straight away, unless you were introduced by a friend.

loads of different advice, no idea what is right or wrong advice ... chances aren't great to bump into her at work again, but yeah she lives just across the road but Ive never seen her before in 2 years. Im just thinking that nothing will happen unless I make it happen, surely you have to do something just after you meet her, I was gonna leave it a couple days then just send some flowers with a little note, what harm can it do .... but there is a chance I will never see her again unless I act on it. Her parents live a street down from my dads house. Surely a girl would see it as a nice thing rather than a bad thing ???
Report History Maker • July 31, 2011 6:25 PM BST
Would she be there to collect them?

A little notecard from Interflora saying 'please go to xyz to pick up some flowers' probably doesn't have the same appeal as getting them straight out. Just a thought.
Report Schalke 04 • July 31, 2011 6:33 PM BST
Problem is she lives in a flat, no idea what flat it is, I only know the main door number ... but I could get her parents to pass them on to her as I know their house. It's on my mind constantly, wish I had just done it last night then I would have known one way or another, why do girls have this power over us, it's torture !!
Report Schalke 04 • July 31, 2011 6:36 PM BST
I wouldn't get a company to deliver them, I would do that myself ... but hey, if something is meant to be then no matter what it will be, but even though I believe that, I still think we have a little cotrol on making something happen. Ive been waiting ages to meet a girl that is incredible, but yet not so stuck up it's impossible to even talk to her, this girl was fantastic, nice to talk to, absolutley gorgeous and completely the typ of girl I wanted to find .... and the moment totally freaked me out last night.
Report History Maker • July 31, 2011 6:38 PM BST
You're screwed. There's no way that works. Sorry.

Just remember for next time. Ask for the f*cking number.

I hate the phrase, but it's true - 'he who dares Rodney, he who dares'
Report Schalke 04 • July 31, 2011 6:44 PM BST
Surely though I still have the chance to do something .... the saying is true so whats wrong in acting on it now?

Plenty of people meet someone, don't ask for a number but then after realising how much they wanted to they then try and see if they can make it happen, god, I can see her flat from my front window, it's gonna drive me nuts knwoing she is so close, even if I get a no from her at least I will find out ..... should I just send flowers to her flat then and hopefully the deliverer will find the right flat?

There is a chance of meeting her again through work, but it's a very small chance that I don't really want to wait on ...

Go round to the flat with a bunch of flowers, ring all the buzzers til you hear the right voice, when she answers, say something like "interflora delivery", and when you hand over the flowers, tell her the condition of receipt is that she has to read the card, on which you have of course written "with love from the man standing in front of you".

I'll expect free drinks at the wedding, and first dibs on the best looking bridesmaid!

Look at it from her way and send flowers to where she works. She may pretend to hate it in front of her colleagues but she will love the gesture, whatever she thinks of you now she will always like you for that. Don't leave it long tho.

Report Schalke 04 • July 31, 2011 8:14 PM BST
I didn't ask her cause 1. Yeah I was totally scared she would just dismiss it, pathetic reason I know but it's just natural, and 2. Cause I didn't want to put her on the spot .... I'm not the most outgoing person in the world and sometimes it's really hard to just ask a girl, I really dunno why, but when I feel like the way I do after it, it again teaches me a lesson to just speak up ... I do in every other way in life except with girls lol

Nope, I'm in the pick up and take home type of business ...

Firstly because whatever reason you think it's acceptable is the same sort of manipulation a parasite uses to influence a catapilla to make it do bizarre stupid s hit that gets it picked off by a predator. You will probs die a thousand times in future thinking what a pathetic sap you were.
Secondly you are no doubt see as sexually patronising and stereotyping the female under new age nonsense laws. She as all females want to be men and hate men as a result, they want to be treated as a man and you wouldn't send flowers to another man would you?
Or would you?

Then I realised ...

I think your headline would read better if you wrote "... girl you have met briefly", rather than "... briefly met".

PS pop to local crem on Friday afternoon.  Loads of fresh flowers - don't forget to remove any cards.
