Incase you havn't read my other thread, there is a girl I see every now and then at work that has the finest ass in the universe, and if Fenster could confirm, he would say that it is definitely, fact!
Someone suggested I take a photo to show everyone, but that's creepy.. I thought something more subtle is to find out her name and look her up on facebook.... But that game plan has been the only string in my bow for way too long now and it's time to add another weapon to the arsenal...
So i'm considering doing the least stalkerish thing, and actually try interacting with this girl....
I've played out a couple of scenario's in my head, but wouldn't mind knowing what you guys think would be best..
The background is, the only time I see her is when I go out for a cigarette at 10am. I walk out the door of the office and go through the car park out to the front of the property... SHE, waits just outside the door and either texts, or talks on her phone.. Usually I catch her before she actually gets on the call...
A) I walk past and give her a high five... Either like Mr Cool. Mr Distracted but give her a little pep up in the middle of being distracted, or Mr Smily Happy, and try to bring energy and happiness to the high five..
Pro's - It involves touch... Guys who have been chatting her up in her part of the office for the last month probably have never touched her.. So it immediately breaks a barrier towards a more solid connection. I come across as a kind of cool, fun, quirky guy.
Con's - I come across as a kind of weird, creepy, strange guy... Who gives strangers high fives.. It makes her uncomfortable and never comes out to the same spot again, specifically to avoid the "high five guy".
B) I walk past and say "Hi Darl"/"Hi Sweetie".
Pro's - Shows I am a friendly person to say Hi, but also have the confidence and comfortable enough to throw in a compliment that someone people would sound sleazy saying. Makes her feel nice about herself and likes the feeling enough to want more of it..
Con's - I actually end up coming across as a sleazy guy.. I don't use the right tone and sell it right, and she just thinks I overly want to impress her.. She wants to avoid me after this incase I try to escalate onto hitting on her.
C) Just say a genuine "hello" and try to linger a bit for a response or more.
Pro's - Hard to come across as to creepy, just sound really genuine.. Just a nice everyday guy. The natural step up from the hello smiles i've given her the last 2 times. It's a safe step closer to her.
Con's - I just come across like every other guy that thinks she's attractive and has the balls/nerve to say hello... Puts me in the same catagory as everyone else and again, thinks i'll just escalate to hitting on her and avoids me after that.. I'll feel like I let myself down by copping out a bit by just saying hello..
D) Stop and Start a conversation - "Hi how are you, how long have you worked here?" etc.
Pro's - It could quickly get us into a conversation where she starts feeling comfortable with me.. Won't be weird then after for me to say hello every time I see her, or stop and talk to her after that. Can give her high five's later or whatever and that's still okay because she's now not a stranger. Gives me a chance to learn something about her that helps me during following interactions.
Con's - She doesn't really want to talk to me at all and a full conversation is worse than the little options above. I'm walking past to have a cigarette, so I actually have to purposefully stop to talk to her, which she'll automatically realize. Again I come across like every other guy, just now i'm one of the guys with a little bit more balls than the ones who just say "hello", but still it's just ordinary chat.
E) Be creative with something more impressive -
You guys suggest something here...
Bilbo would like your thoughts... yes i'm a pussy and yes I think by thinking about it all this much, it's bound to make me uncomfortable when the time comes and because i'm so invested in this conversation or interaction, she'll pick up on it... But I thought at least it would be a bit of fun to talk about it here, and try to sell myself on taking SOME sort of action which can beat simply stalking her for her name, and being satisfied i've found her on facebook.
I will just say it to myself right now, I am not letting this turn into the previous facebook girl thread..... I've learnt from my mistakes..
