Darren2013 Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Well I overheard my crush point out to another coworker about her favorite type of chocolate candy. So that gives me an idea. My plan is to wait a couple of weeks and then mail in a package of a generous supply of chocolate. I will mail it to our work address. I'm not going to put a return address on it because I want her to come to her own conclusions as to who might have sent it. I will have to print the address instead of handwriting it. This way there's no chance of her recognizing my handwriting. Then we will see her reaction when she gets it. I would be shocked if she did not at least suspect I did it. The idea is to get her to suspect it but she won't be able to prove I did it. If she asks me if I sent it then I will just play dumb and say I don't know anything about that and deny doing it. Then I will also say "Maybe it was your boyfriend who did it and he wanted to play around a little". She doesn't have a boyfriend but I'm going to pretend I know nothing about her current dating life. Worst comes to worst then I have spent 30 bucks for no reason. That's okay. I'm willing to risk it. That 30 bucks can be replaced and it would be worth it anyway to put my mind at ease.
preraph Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I cannot for the life of me see any point to that. It's downright creepy. So even if she thinks it's you, you're going to deny it? I thought you liked her? I thought you wanted to go out with her. This could get you fired and I have to say it's a really creepy thing to do. If you signed it, it could end up getting you fired; and if you don't, it's just stalkery crazy creepy as all get out. 2
Author Darren2013 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 (edited) Umm obviously if I plan to remain anonymous I won't be signing my name to anything. That would defeat the purpose. Nothing is going to be in my handwriting. Like I said there is no way for her to prove I did it. That gift could have come from any other guy who works there or a crush from somewhere else playing with her. Edited September 5, 2014 by Darren2013
todreaminblue Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 lol.....i was planning on doing this for a friend of mine......but sending it to his home......i found out a long time ago.....he loves milky top freddo frogs.......stored it for future reference......my challenge i set myself this week was to find out his address.....and send milky top freddo frogs to him anonymously to cheer him up ....i have had heart feelings he is really down about something....i haven't seen him in quite a while.....and it makes me anxious that i havent seen him.... i failed to live up to my challenge....as i also had an overwhelming feeling he would know it was me..which defeats the purpose of me sending the chocky which was just to make him happy.... ....and i dont want to pressure him....or make him feel i am invading his space...which sunk me into sadness because i really wanted to complete that challenge.......i know he loves them.... if i were you ....do it as a random act of kindness.......put them on her car ....dont spend thirty dollars spend less than ten.........a small sweet random gift that makes her feel appreciated not obligated...........so not so expensive ...smilin good luck ...i hop eyou do the challenge...because ti si a challenge...make it random.....deb
Ronni_W Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 That 30 bucks can be replaced and it would be worth it anyway to put my mind at ease. How is it going to put your mind at ease??? Have you considered that she may feel awfully uncomfortable, vulnerable, at risk or scared by you playing such a childish, stupid prank on her...simply for your own entertainment, amusement? It really is a horrible thing to even consider doing. 2

It really is a horrible thing to even consider doing. it isnt at all ...and i am female...how is a random act of kindness horrible.........i wouldn't think someone was playing a prank on me....i would however feel strange if it were expensive.....
Elias33 Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 It's not a terrible idea. But before you do. What is it that you are trying to accomplish? Ask yourself that question. Would a direct approach be more successful? Not trying to ridicule your idea. But I think these questions should be asked. After all, you're trying to get closer to your crush right? This would be a high risk move I would say. But then again, it could pay off as well. I just wouldn't see how. At least you are willing to take a risk, hat off to you.
Author Darren2013 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 And to go further to cover myself I plan to drive to a different county and mail it from their post office. I won't mail it from the county I live in. But the poster who said to not make it expensive you are right. 30 dollars was an estimate after adding up all the postage fees. The gift itself would be less than 10 bucks. If she doesn't think it is from me then I will feel good knowing I did a good deed in secret. Ideally it is better that people don't know the source of the good deed. Let her speculate but that's all.
vanhalenfan Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I simply don't see the point if you are never going to admit to it. Don't you want to eventually date her and this is your way of letting her know you're interested? If you just leave it be and she never really figures it out that it was you....I just don't see the point. I don't know, maybe I'm just not understanding it!
Author Darren2013 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 By the way nobody outside of loveshack knows I have a crush. I haven't talked about it with a single soul that knows me personally. So that works out in my favor as far as nothing leaking back to her that I like her. I could put an anonymous note typed up that says "A small token of appreciation to you from someone who is thinking about you. Enjoy! Have a wonderful day". I won't sign my name. I won't put anything in my handwriting as I don't want to take the chance that she may recognize my handwriting or send it to a handwriting analysist and they match it up to me.

Author Darren2013 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 I could also add in the note "You have unknowingly entertained angels and this is a special thank you to you from an angel in heaven". Yeah if I decide to put any identification I will just identify myself as an unseen angel from heaven.

jay1983 Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Darren man, this is a little crazy and I really don't see what you're hoping to accomplish. This is like one of those high school love letter that get dropped in lockers.
Toodaloo Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I did this loads for various friends and family. They named it "Freddo bombing" after the chocolate bars I stuck in the envelope. I got caught out and bombed on my birthday... I am still surrounded by the things! It caused ALOT of smiles and it took a while for everyone to figure out it was me. If she asks if it was you - you need to fess up or it will be creepy... The whole notes thing is WAY over the top and would make any sane woman run... Have to say though my motives were very different and although this may help her notice you its not really an "asking on date" kinda thing to do. Its something you do for a friend as a happy sort of joke... Why don't you just ask her? I know its hard and takes courage but when it comes to romance sometimes its better to just ask.
sillyanswer Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 What do you think this little stunt will do for her interest level in you if she doesn't know who it's from?
Author Darren2013 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 Well she does believe in the supernatural so I have to make it look like it was sent from an angel or from God. Heaven does not have a return address.
MGX Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Save $30 and ask her out for lunch. Seriously. If she enjoyed her time with you and wants to do it again, ask for her number. I don't think it's creepy, just the actions of a shy person who fears rejection. If she doesn't go for it, you still have your $30.

Heaven does not have a return address. If she doesn't think the mystery gift is from you then it hardly counts as "breaking the ice" as per the title of the thread. Can you clarify the purpose of the gift?

Now she'll start looking for more signs or clues that confirm her suspicions that he likes her. Am I right?

There's a big difference in what a person suspects vs. what they know for a fact.
Imported Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Well she does believe in the supernatural so I have to make it look like it was sent from an angel or from God. Heaven does not have a return address. Well, that totally makes sense now! Why didn't you say that from the beginning? 2

So, what are the clues that will make her think that the chocolates came from Darren?
