Shemmyemmy23 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Hi, I'm very shy and at work I see a guy come in all the time (a customer) who I find very attractive and I want to ask him out but I'm too shy to do it. Would it be okay to write my number on a note and ask a friend to give it to him and let him know its from me? I'm running out of time! Also before anyone asks I'm 22 years old! Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
angel.eyes Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Since you aren't in high school, leave your friends passing notes on your behalf out of this. You make eye contact and smile with him. If you can manage it, flirt when he speaks with you. Link to post Share on other sites

preraph Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 He might take a note as a straight up sexual proposition, so better just smile nicely and make a point to speak to him or help him or whatever and see if he likes it. Link to post Share on other sites
RedButton Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Ha! How funny, I'm on the other end of this situation at the moment. It's awkward when it's at work because it's tough to have a moment alone with the customer/worker. Best situation would be if you have a quiet moment where there aren't many people around, ask them a question like 'What have you got planned for the rest of the day?'. If they say nothing, or not much or whatever, just casually mention you're going on break/finish at a certain time, does he want to join you for a coffee nearby? If the place is busy or you really can't get a moment to ask in person, why not run off his reciept, then run off another piece of reciept paper, then tell him "one more thing", jot down a quick message like "Would you like to get a coffee sometime?" and your name and number and hand it to him with the reciept. If he's interested he'll definitely text or call you. Good luck! EDIT: Oh, important question, do you speak to him much when he's there? That's the best way to start off, just have some conversations with them and get to know them so it's not just a random employee approaching them. Link to post Share on other sites
Frank2thepoint Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Smile, chat with him a little, and just ask him for a cup of coffee/tea or grab some pizza. Practice in front of a mirror, or better yet, practice with some random stranger out and about, like in a clothing store or book store. I'm serious. You'll be pleased with your gumption and build up the confidence to talk to the guy real quick. Link to post Share on other sites
