Hi i'm new here so forgive me if doing anything wrong. I just had to get some advice....

 

There's this gorgeous girl who works in a shop in town and i cant get the courage to ask her for her number, in fact i don't really know how i should ask for her number.

 

twice this week ive been in with the hope i may talk to her but ended up buying things i don't even want haha.

 

Actually i did speak to her today, i asked her if they had a certain item in stock as a conversation starter, but thats all i did. she said "no im sorry we dont" then i said "ok, thankyou" and walked off, feeling like an idiot for wasting the opportunity.

 

I suppose im scared of the thought that if i start talking to her saying "hows work today?" or somthing, that she'll know im hitting on her. i think its the fear of her knowing my intentions haha.

 

Thanks for any advice.

Why don't you ask her to meet you for coffee, etc. after her work? It is a little more casual then asking for a phone number, and if things go well; if you two have coffee, you can then ask for her telephone number. Please remember that beautiful girls are asked out less, then average-looking girls. Men, understandably feel they will be rejected by the great-looking girls. You indicated that this girl is gorgeous, so she probably does not get asked out much.

Casually hand her your contact information, letting her know that you find her cute and if she felt like grabbing coffee or dinner sometime, to call you. Smile and walk away. It takes the pressure off of her to make a decision when she's in work mode, as well as a confident way of displaying your interest without pestering her or seeming creepy. Not saying that you would do this, but it can't be said enough to make certain her supervisor isn't in earshot and to never wait outside of the store (especially after closing time) in an attempt to speak to her.

 

If she gets in touch with you, great. If she isn't interested, that's OK, go on your way. Noting wrong with continuing to be a customer of the store, just don't ask her again.

See Shopgirl starring Steve Martin and Claire Danes. Then do what he did or ask her if she saw the film.

Making your intentions known to women shows confidence. The faster you do it, the better your chances of getting them. Take it from me.

 

Just last week I walked into Macy's on a mission to hit on young, attractive women working each department, but of course, I was wise to pick out my spots.

 

I approached 5 and got 1 phone number. 4 out of the 5 engaged interest, smiling at me when I walked away and keeping an eye on me throughout. I knew I reeled them in, but they had boyfriends, and didn't feel very good about risking it. Maybe under different circumstances, some might've just considered cheating. I've gotten 3 women to cheat many moons ago. :p

 

Surf, never take long to go after a woman, because then your nerves will get fried, and the tension in your gut will mount and you'll wound up never getting the job done.

 

Or, if by chance you finally pull it off, to her, it will appear forced and your level of confidence won't shine through. So, my advice to you is to go back to the store, make very small talk, introduce yourself, and then tell her you want to take her to a show, a movie, or a slice of pizza. Keep it simple and direct. If she says no, big deal, move on from her, but if you keep with this practice, more than some will say yes. :cool:
