goose491 0 #1 February 25, 2005 So I need a little advice all. Sorry this is so looong! I went snowboarding last night with my brother and my mom. It's cold out here in Ontario and when the sun is down... Oh Nelly! So at one point we stopped at the base and went in for a hot chocolate warm-up. They were very busy in there but I remember looking around and saying to myself "I hope that's our waitress!" She was slim, had wild-curly brown hair with some blond to it. She wore glasses and a great smile. She had ink done on both arms (what was all that writing?) and a piercing in her bottom lip. Sure enough, she came to take our order... I was ON. She seemed genuinely interested in my eye contact... she seemed genuinely interested in finding it from across the place when she was at other tables too. I argued with my little brother about whether or not she was attractive (he didn't like the tattoos.) and I think she could tell exactly what I was saying. Hehee. So we're done our drinks and ready for a few more runs when the bill comes. How am I going to pull this off? She's running around this place, busy as hell. This is my mother sitting next to me ... all the ingredients for a real flop. I over-pay so that it'll be one more trip to our table. She comes back with my change. I’m wondering if her face really is asking me to talk to her or if my mind is simply hoping so much. "Hey listen, I really like your ink!" I say. "Thanks!" she lifts one of her sleeves to show me the whole picture. “Tell me about it, what’s this here? yadda yadda”. She goes on for a little bit about what each piece means. The bottom of the one arm piece is the Serenity Prayer!… I smile at her, she smiles back. … my mom and brother are fully dressed, standing by the door… I’m still stuck like a deer in the headlights… “I’m Nick.” I put out my hand and she takes it (her face says ‘of course it is!’) “My name is Annick. It’s nice to meet you.”… [deer in headlights].......... me: “Well, I’d better go now.” My question. Would it have been creepy for me to have asked her number? Left her mine? I mean I’m usually a good judge but she’s a waitress and I was a patron, she’s sorta forced to be polite. She was busy though and despite this, she did stand there as blankly as I... for what seemed to be a while. I’m contemplating calling the place today and leaving my number there for her. Should I just go again next week at the same time by myself and hope for the best? What do you all think? Nick My Karma ran over my Dogma!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkiD_PL8 0 #2 February 25, 2005 From what you said she sounded genuinely intrested. I would at the very least call and ask for her so you have the chance to remind her who you are and give her your number personally. I would actually prefer going back in person if it isn't to far away and don't even eat, just go in and speak with her, she will realize you made the trip just to talk to her and most likely it will make her day and get you a date. Good luck man! Don't you love that feeling? Greenie in training. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Girlfalldown 0 #3 February 25, 2005 Just call the restaurant and if she isn't there leave your number for her to call back. If she calls then she's interested. That way if you did creep her out all she has to do is NOT call. -------------- (Do not, I repeat DO NOT, take my posts seriously.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amanduh 0 #5 February 25, 2005 Definately call. She sounds hot! That is such a cute story too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites kbordson 8 #6 February 25, 2005 I'd say go back in person to give her your number. Don't be pushy about a date tonight or anything... just say that it took you some time to build up the courage to give your number. If she wants to call you , she will. But don't miss the chance to see.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites happythoughts 0 #7 February 25, 2005 Thank God! I thought this was going to be another, "Is this gay?" thread. Call, she was definitely interested. If your mom/bro were there, it was interest. If it was just guys, she would be feigning interest to play you for a tip. Game on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites goose491 0 #8 February 25, 2005 QuoteThank God!

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Dougiefresh 0 #9 February 25, 2005 I'd say you blew it.

You missed that chance but as a girl I can tell you that I don't think it would be creepy if you went back. Definitely go back and if you can't sit at one of her tables, at least try to find out from your waitress if she is single or not. That should be your first worry!She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites goose491 0 #12 February 25, 2005 Thanks Shannon, But for the record, I'm in no way worried that I creeped her out last night. I feel as though she was pleased with me and our quick dialogue. It's just that right then and there... it was time to go... and the moment just sucked for a "can I call you sometime?" sorta thing. My Karma ran over my Dogma!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites goose491 0 #13 February 25, 2005 I reckon that's the "best" way too... It's just like 2 hours away and I'd hate to make the drive on a day she isn't working. Before anyone suggests it, I've worked in my fair share of restaurants and a guy calling to find out when so and so is working next is a MAJOR faut-pas. They will take it as though I am a nasty stalker... and rightfully so! Can't be too careful. However, if I sweet talk the manager on the phone, let them know I understand and I'm not looking for something I'm not entitled to?... and just say "Give her my number when she comes in next please?"... then it's in her hands. (at least I hope.. with my luck, whomever answers the phone is a fellow employee with a giant crush: "Yeah, sure, I'll make sure she gets it." haha!) My Karma ran over my Dogma!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites goose491 0 #14 March 7, 2005 BUMP! ... Lesbian lol. Or so it would seem! Went riding again on Saturday with some friends. I wanted to go in to my Pizza joint at the end of the day (Gee I wonder why lol). We ended up going to the Indian Motorcycle Bar and Grill just across the way for some beers... And my buddy works the Bar there. So I spot him when he comes in to start his shift. I hadn't seen him in a while and went to say hello. We chat it up a bit and then I decide to get some backgroud dirt. I ask him if he knows the staff of the Pizza place... does he know Annick? The gal with the tats? "Yeah I know who you're talking about" "What is she like?" I ask. "A Lesbian!!!" he anwsers... "Damn!" I say "Come on! You've got to be sh*ttin' me!" But he didn't know for sure, it was just the impression he got because of the tats and the piercing. Says he only met her once but he's in good with a bunch of her friends. He's going to do the preliminary for me. See if she remembered me... would she mind if I called her. lol. It's a little childish I know. But I'm having fun with it. I should have writen him a note for him to give her.... you know? QuoteDo you like me? yes:___ no:___ (Check one) Bwahahaa! My Karma ran over my Dogma!!!
