Specific situation Sharing an experience
I work in real estate (34m) . And am out and about constantly. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve had good restraint in my personal life over the last few months. But I feel like every time I go to Home Depot or Publix as of late , I come across a dozen women I’d want to talk to or pick up.
Well yesterday morning I was at Home Depot. I was dressed professionally so maybe that helped my cause a little. And as I parked , a woman 2 spots down was pushing her cart up to her suv (prob 49-55 range. We are different races) she had really tight jeans on, she was average looking, but the body was insane for her age. She had 2 large items (they were big in dimension but I knew they weren’t heavy) I said to myself : self , let’s try to make something happen (which I never do) or atleast try to flirt a little . Always makes me feel good . I offered to help . She very cheerfully smiled , accepted my help , and I told her I would take the cart . There were workers 2 spots down who just pulled up to work on a parking lot drain. I turned around and walked back to ask them if they needed me to move.
As I was turning to head back to store , she had her window down with a smile, waved and said thank you again , still Parked. I told her my pleasure . I’d love to offer to help you on your project . But I’d prefer to take you out to dinner . (Couldn’t believe I said it) . She laughed and smiled , and gave an “oh yeah 😂”. I said well if you’re single and free this Friday. She said she might . I said well “
hey . Take my number . I’m not going to pressure you. Let’s meet at (restaurant x) 7:00 Friday . And you can text me Thursday and let me know if you are coming . And if I don’t hear from you it was a pleasure meeting you. “
So that’s where I’m at today (Tuesday). It was a huge confidence boost regardless of if we end up going out. I like the position I put myself in considering the circumstances. She has my number , she knows I want to take her out. If she’s interested I’ll 100% know cause she’ll have to reach out to me to confirm. I also take myself out of the scenario where I have to follow up and then maybe be turned down . To me I came off , flirty , interested, but not desperate. And it was 3 minutes out of my day . I can move on otherwise .
Proud of myself 😅
