Nicely done! Now when you go in next, you can say, “Hi (Name), how are you?” to her and a whole other level of interaction has begun.
Pass her a folded note saying, “If you like me, check yes.” If you don’t like me, check no."
That’s Game 101 son. 
Hmm, in a lifetime of grocery shopping and crushing, I can remember the two things overlapping only once. Although there was one time at my local Whole Foods I saw one of the staff taking inventory on the number of roast chickens that were in the still in the hot display case. I walked by her and said “not before they hatch”. Seemed a shame to waste such wit.
Now I’m wondering if my, or anyone else’s, crushes tend toward one profession more than others; carhops, baristas, dental hygienists?
Martian and jtur88, you both have a point. Being a natural introvert, it’s sometimes hard to he awesome, though sometimes I can let my inner rock star shine. 
I think I sorta figured out why Im attracted to her. She reminds me of my last gf…and her name is almost exactly like hers. Just missing one consonant.
Im considering some of the suggestions here for my next step. I’ll report back!

Robot, I once had a school boy crush on someone who was quite older than me and was like the second in command in the organization I worked at. It was such a silly and oh so hopeless crush. But I kinda scored…kinda. I’ll make a separate post on this. Maybe it might inspire sone hopeless romantic.

As someone who wears a name tag at work, it doesn’t bother me at all if someone addresses me by my name. I actually find it kind of nice when people are friendly like that. Yeah, sometimes I can tell if the person is flirting with me, and that’s Ok, too, if they are being casually friendly about it and not all intense. I do wear a ring since I’m married and if they are getting too flirty, I hand them their receipt with my left hand so they can see it. Usually works. 
A real man cannot (and will not) compete with assholes who make it their life’s work to be “bait”, and have a new girl every night. “Awesome” is the NBA stars who sleep with ten thousand women. Why do women fall for “awesome”?
Attraction to a stranger isn’t necessarily based on sexual interest.
No, you can’t *fake *being attractive. You actually have to *be *attractive. If you’re an unemployed, poor, uneducated, psychotic, smelly, unwashed, obese, unpleasant schmuck with no friends, who lives in your parents’ basement or in prison, and who is on heroin, then you’re probably screwed either way. Then you can play the pickup artist all day long. Or you can just be yourself. You still won’t have any luck with the ladies, will you?
But if you’re a gainfully employed, financially secure, well educated, sane, pleasantly fragrant, clean, reasonably fit, nice man with a relatively normal social life, who rents or owns your own accommodation, don’t have much of a criminal record, and don’t do drugs to excess, then you probably already have a girlfriend. Because you’re attractive.
What are women attracted to? They’re attracted to attractive people, aren’t they? It’s not like it’s rocket science. It’s right there in the word.
And it’s not about “letting your inner rock star shine”. It’s about ticking enough of those boxes, and it’ll work itself out. Then you can be nice to checkout girls, as well as other people in general, (as opposed to “hitting on them”. or “scoring”), and get on with your day. Happiness and love will ensue soon enough.
Now, I’m not a smart man. But those pickup artist types? They’re bleeping idiots. They think that when they have romantic success, it’s because of something they do. So they write instruction manuals. The truth is that they have romantic success not because of, but in spite of, their pickup artistry nonsense. It’s about who they are, The successful ones happen to be attractive. But they’re too dumb to realize this.
Now, to return to the OP. For Christ’s sake, hippie, have a look at yourself, would you?
Is this the kind of project that you really want to get into? If not, then, well, just thank God that this person exists in the world, continue to appreciate her loveliness, keep the categorical imperative in mind, and behave towards her in the same manner that you would like others to behave towards you.
If it is the kind of project that you want to pursue, then, yeah, try a little small talk. There’s not like there’s much else you can do. Is there some magical phrase that will unlock her heart-shaped box? No, with the possible exception of “I have a nine inch tongue, and I can breathe through my ears.”
Maybe try some suggestive dropping of subliminal hints, that will also allow you to maintain plausible deniability. For instance:
Catch her by the fruit isle. Casually remark: “Nice melons.”
Approach her in the meat section. Inquire: “Don’t you just love some good sausage?”
Is there some kind of home improvement isle? Tell her: “I’m looking for a screw. I greatly enjoy screwing. Say, do you like screwing, too?”
I would love to hear the story of how you seduced Dick Cheney.
With regard to your crush, an easy way to gauge interest is to tell them you are planning to do something like go to a movie, or a music or sports event. Then ask her if she likes that type of thing. If she says yes then it is an easy move to, Do you want to accompany me to said event, and if she says no you are let down easily.
The dick knows not your name
yet loves you just the same.
It knows places wet and warm;
seeks out holes of any form
but the dick knows not your name.

This here.^^
The women in this thread are telling you to go slowly and the men are giving you all kinds of other “advice”. You’re a smart guy. ![]()
Just a quick question…so I stopped by the store this morning (exactly one week later). I saw her doing something by the deli as I was walking in. When I was ready to pay I didn’t see her at any of the registers or at the self checkout stations. I sighed and decided to pay at the self checkout where there was another employee stationed there.
When I was just about done I noticed a price discrepancy, so I turned around to ask for assistance. She was there! But at that exact moment when I turned around another customer was having issues and notified her first.
She was sort of in the middle of figuring what was wrong, so she didn’t look at me immediately when I turned around and uttered something to get her attention. I really didn’t expect her to be there though.
Anyway, after helping the first customer she came to me and helped me. This time I looked at her fingers. I noticed a silver band on the middle finger of her left hand and the other hand had a similar ring on either the ring or middle finger. What does this mean???
I really had a good opportunity to chat her up but didn’t do it. I also noticed that she looked a bit dolled up this time around. Bright pink lipstick and nails.

So ask her out already.

But I need to know the significance of those rings and their placement on the middle finger of each hand! Also I need positive cues from her first.

Quit stalling.
Yeah, I’m not getting a good feeling about this DH. You’re putting way too much thought into this. You need to ask yourself: “When this lady goes home at night, how much time does she spend thinking about me?”
And if the answer is considerably less than you think about her, you need to ask yourself if you’re okay with that.
Usually, when the attraction is mutual, the couple involved find that out in short order. There is no strategizing or guess work involved. It just happens.
According to the feminist experts, it is totally improper for you to talk to her unless she speaks to you, and you can not ask her out unless she tells you that you can.
Doing otherwise is apparently some form of rape or something??
I’ve no idea, these new rules are too confusing, and i have no idea how anyone is supposed to get a date under them?
Good thing i am too old and much too ugly to worry about a date.
(female here) Ask her about the rings, duh. :smack:
“I like your rings. Do they mean something special?”
FWIW, I know numerous females who wear rings on various fingers at various times. It means they like rings.
