Trying to score with a customer where I work.

I currently work in a grocery store as a manager over the seafood department, which is also tied in with the meat department. Well anyways there is a cute girl who comes in there every now and then that I have been interested in of course. I have made small talk with her but nothing more. I am not really sure about flirting with the "customer" or not.

She stops by my department when I am there everytime she comes in to shop, and kind hangs around while im there for a minute. And one night as I was leaving and closed the entire seafood/meat department, she asks me could I slice some ribs in half cross ways and long ways with the saw, which she could tell it was closed.

When I told her the meat department was closed, she giggled at me, and I didn't know if that meant anything or not. I mean usually when you tell someone that they will get mad or just say ok but not giggle at you.

I hope this doesn't sound silly. But anyways what are you opinions?

Well, get to know here better. Try to find out about here hang out places, and what she likes to do. Every time you see her just talk to her. A few weeks after tell her to come by and visit you at work. If she does, then you can take it from there, if not then you know she is not interested.
Hope that helped.

She loves her meat (no pun intended).

Why don't you offer to make her a mean steak marinaded? Ask her what she is cooking on the grill or whatnot and offer up tips and highlights of how you cook your meat and other dishes. Get her interested to the point that she is salivating then offer to come by and sample some.

Get it?

I'd be cautious. If you come on too strong and she complains you could lose your job.

Well it definitely sounds as if she is hanging around there to get your attention and give you time to try something.

Next time just ask her, "Can I call you sometime?"

At which point you'll get the inevitable "Well my boyfriend wouldn't like that."

Which will cause you to start asking yourself some serious questions, like, why is it that women that already HAVE a boyfriend are the ones who flirt the MOST aggressively?

To have one boyfriend but flirt with other guys too, well that's just asking for trouble isn't it?

Which will lead you to conclude: women are trouble!

As the saying goes, don't S*** where you eat. Put all thought of this girl out of your mind, and consider joining a monastery somewhere

And the possibility is that she might just like you as a friend and not a lover. There is nothing wrong with strictly platonic relationships with women.

But being as how she seems to like you in the meat dept.; jump her bones.

Life is much to short and tedious not to be constantly in LOVE if at all possible.

Or would you rather let this opportunity slip away and in the future ask yourself why didn't I at least try to get to know her. Even if she rejects you, you gave it a shot. Be bold, seize the opportunity.

In this life; the more friends you have, both male and female, the better.

Asking for it...

you could say.

"Would you like to sample some pork sword!"

"We have an excellent deal on sweater meat, oh I see you have pleanty already!"

But, from past blunders, be very careful the Don't 5hi7 where you eat rule is a good one.

If you really like her then find out where she works and bump into her there. Take it away from where you eat. Ya dig!

Yeah, easier said than done though.

I have been in this situation many times - WAYYYYY TOO MANY TIMES!!!!! - and what I have found is that the girl will keep shutting down your attempts to get her out on a date or to a private place somewhere ("my boyfriend wouldn't like that"), and she will just keep finding ways to put you on the spot right there at your work.

She WANTS you to make your move right there while you're at work.

She WANTS you to make a big scene.

She WANTS the thrill rush of you coming out of nowhere and touching/kissing her IN SPITE OF her loser BF that she's too good for!

Now if you're not prepared to do that, you may need to run some defensive countermeasures. "Oh boy, my WIFE would just KILL me if I even LOOKED at another woman....."

And in some cases a woman will STILL persist and you may actually have to get nasty,

You: "GET OUT OF MY FACE. Get away from me!"
Her: "What?!?!?"
You: "You heard me! GET LOST"

(Yes it is mean, and yes women have done this to me and it hurts a lot, but sometimes it is the ONLY way to make a person give up....)

If she's hot, the meat department is NEVER closed.

Peace

Yearning for the ol' in and out in and out?

Yes, that's important

At which point you'll get the inevitable "Well my boyfriend wouldn't like that."

when she says that, you just tell her with a serious face, "that's ok, we'll keep it on the down low."

Which will cause you to start asking yourself some serious questions, like, why is it that women that already HAVE a boyfriend are the ones who flirt the MOST aggressively?

A lot of times it's a fetish thing. I know young chicks/old chicks who get off on that kind of stuff.

It depends how you said it. Did you say it with a seductive tone like, "hey baby, the 'meat' department is closed." Or did you just say it regular?

maybe she has a dirty mind?

LOL it's okay humbleone, you can just say "women", you don't have to put in a young/old qualifier

But I think it's more that, they are stuck in a relationship that they are anxious to get out of, but they are too weak to simply break up with the guy and be alone - so they have to find a guy who is strong enough to destroy the relationship FOR them!

Ugh......

Yeah, I don't know why i did that. lol

Exactly my brother! You hit it right on the money. You should be like a sociologist or something.

But yeah, if that's the case I don't see a problem with hooking up with her. She probably wants to ditch her old loser boyfriend anyway.

I am MANY things, dude....

Yeah I suppose, if you can get past all the logistics issues.... (and you aren't afraid of an angry bf/husband coming after you with a vengeance)

In my case though, these girls just throw hurdle after hurdle after hurdle at me, so these situations never pan out....

reply to post by MrdDstrbr


Ah, I completely forgot about the angry BF/husband. OP, Your best bet would be to make it a one time thing since I don't think you can be "in love" with this chick since you don't even know her. Either that or, she could be a good booty call for whenever she needs to relieve "tension" after she gets in a fight with her BF.

edit: but if that's the case, then technically, you would be the booty call.

LOL, maybe I just said it regulary, I am sorry but the meat department is closed for tonights, thats it. BTW, she is chineese, maybe that explains the giggling? I am just looking for a booty call myself right now. Not looking for anything to serious.

I have already thought that, so basically what I have thought about doing, was just saying hello, what is your name if you don't mind? Then if she tells me, I could either try and use a crappy line like well thats nice your name matches your beauty, or say well I was wondering if I could have your number and we could go out sometime maybe?
