Binge watched YOU https://youtu.be/cKOhno0IMpA on Netflix on Boxing Day.
It’s almost as delightful as this thread
Just replace Book Shop Clerk with Aldi customer.
Either way I think it’s a bad idea. It’s almost an abuse of trust. She’s being polite/flirty because that’s her job. You could be seen as taking advantage of that.
On the other hand stalk the f
k out of her, ingratiate yourself in her life. Let us know how it turns out...

Reading back through his posts he did say this, which is a bit concerning : " I think I can talk to one of the lads that works there with her, hopefully quietly and discretely enough to get some inside information with out spooking anyone."
That's a good way to get yourself on some list. His moniker checks out at least.

The joy of Tinder and Bumble is of course that there has to be a mutual like in the first place before you can interract. Not had much luck with Bumble,
I've seen more than one profile on Bumble which states something along the lines of "if we match then I expect you to message me first".Either they don't know how bumble works, or it's a cut'n'paste profile.
If the former, then it's no wonder Bumble is quiet.

I think you all being harsh on the poor op.
He is trying his best, and doesn't want to upset the girl.
Good luck OP, hope she is in the next time you are there and you manage to ask her for a date.
I reckon his trousers will go and he won't be able to do it or he'll completely fluff it.He is trying his best, and doesn't want to upset the girl.

Anyways let's change subject.
As per that other thread and case, any of you singletons buying a cheap boat?
Looks to be a successful pulling technique according to that guys stats of 10 online date girls in a year having a ride in it, just don't drive it dangerously...
yeah, but did they actually go out for a sail? As per that other thread and case, any of you singletons buying a cheap boat?

It's not a massive over-analysis, it's called careful consideration and opinion gathering.
The last thing I want to do is embarrass her whilst she is at work in front of her fellow staff or customers.
Who knows?
Maybe she's getting these 'hits' three or four times a weeks and I'm just another sucker stuck in the queue. Is it Aldi policy to train these ladies to flirt with a certain customer demographic to keep them coming back?
Anyway, the note is written and kept in the car, it'll go in to my back pocket every time I go into the store.
I'm not scared of being open and forthright, I'm more worried about embarrassing her, putting her in to what could be a difficult situation.
I'm going to proceed with my cunning plan - hope she is there next time I go in for more milk.
Sorry, but it is. While you've been coming up with The Masterplan, someone's been in, had a normal question answered with a smile, asked her for a drink, and boom you've missed your chance.The last thing I want to do is embarrass her whilst she is at work in front of her fellow staff or customers.

If she has noticed you at all, then she knows if she'd like to go for a drink with you. You don't know, so just ask her.
I'd also say don't have anything already written down. Especially not on nice stationery!
If she says that, yes, she'd like to go for a drink with you, then either write it on a piece of paper at the till or pop out to the car and write your number down and bring it back in.
Your way looks too premeditated. And premeditated is at least a tiny little bit scary.

I agree on this point. It would look a little bit needy, and women can smell desperation a mile off. They don't like it. olly22n said:
Have anyone of you lot offering advice ever walked up to a girl, sober, and asked her out? I can tell you its fking scary and is not easy.
The guy is only going on as you keep asking him questions ffs. What's wrong with feeling butterflies in your stomach - that's how its meant to be!
Men have been making awkward approaches to women for centuries, sometimes its a fairytale, other times its an embarrassment. I really don't see what the issue is as long as if it's a 'no' that's where it ends.
Grab life by the balls and ask her out for fks sake. Nothing bad will happen if you're polite.
Certainly scary. Certainly not easy.king scary and is not easy.The guy is only going on as you keep asking him questions ffs. What's wrong with feeling butterflies in your stomach - that's how its meant to be!

ks sake. Nothing bad will happen if you're polite.Certainly not made any less scary or any less easy by fretting/planning/strategising for weeks, meanwhile increasing your chances of losing the opportunity to someone who hasn't been fretting/planning/strategising for weeks, but instead has been grasping every nettle.
Faint heart ne'er won fair maid.

And today I got that info, I went in for more milk but bought butter instead, I pulled aside the lad whom I often chat with (who was incidentally stocking the fridges with milk).
Allegedly she is single/separated (has kids) and he asked me not to push him for too much information, 'I have to be professional about this.' he said.
Then he told me that 'She finishes her shift at two tomorrow'.
Yippee - I'll be there.
This has got 'disaster' written all over it. Has it not occured to you that said work colleague will be giving the checkout chick a heads up about "some crazy old guy was in yesterday asking what your name was, where you lived, were you single/married, what days and times you worked" before your arrival tomorrow afternoon? You couldn't get any more stalkerish if you tried. I bet you've been trying to hunt her down on Facebook and Instagram just like in Salmon's video above. You've definitely got a screw loose imo.Allegedly she is single/separated (has kids) and he asked me not to push him for too much information, 'I have to be professional about this.' he said.
