Topic: What should I do? | |
---|---|
It's a pretty detailed story so bear with me. I really would like to hear some input from the ladies as much as the men because I'd like to hear what they have to say. But the mens imput is welcome as well.
2 weeks ago on a Thursday, I decided to leave a rose for a girl who works in a different suite in our building. I work in suite 160 and I believe she works in suite 150, but we share the building. I've seen her in the mornings when I arrive at work so I know what car she drives. I thought she was gorgeous and stunning to look at. So I thought "Hey, I'll go buy her a flower for just being so beautiful" So I went across the street to the shopping center and bought a single stem red rose. I was debating on what type of rose since different colors represents different meanings. But I guess I can say I did fall for her on sight. This was happening during lunch. So as soon as I made the purchase, I went back to work, drove into the parking lot, and stopped momentarily behind her car. I hopped out and planted the rose on her windshield. I had also put a blank card to go with it saying: "I've seen you around the building before and I don't really know your name. But what I do know is that your very gorgeous" Just a simple note, nothing more. I parked the car and went back to work for the duration of the day. At the end of the day, I just happened to walk past her car. Above the backseat was the rose, slowly withering away because it was actually hot that day. That actually got me inspired. The next day, during lunch, I bought her another rose, with another note attached: "Perhaps we can meet up for coffee today at Starbucks. I've love to get to know you better :)" I planted the rose and the note during lunch and went back to work shortly after. Now what suprised me is what happened the end of the day. It's a friday by the way. I was walking to my car and I hopped in and started to drive off. I saw her car and apparently, she had taken the rose. But in place of where the rose was, was a note, with MY name on it. I was stunned at first but quickly decided to jump out, grab the note and take off, in which I did. As I was driving, I opened the note. It said: "Hey, I have to drive two people home after work so I can't. Call me at ###-#### -Katie" Of course I was stunned and shocked and was actually happy. I called as soon as I saw the number, but her phone was off. I left a message naturally. Later that night, I hung out with 2 of my freinds. I'm the type of guy to follow the rules when it comes to trying to get to know people better. I was hesitant on calling her later that evening at 7:30 but I wanted to. I was with my freind and I asked Jason (me): Hey, you think I should call her? Donut (his actual nickname): Don't know. How long has it been? Jason: About....3-4 hours since I made the first call Donut: Go for it then. I'm sure it's alright So I called, and to my suprise she actually did pick up. Katie: Hello? Jason: Katie? Katie: Yes? Jason: It's Jason. I'm the one who's been leaving you those roses on your car? Katie: Oh hey Jason. I was just about to call you Jason (thinking to myself "damit!"): Oh, so whats up. How are you? What are you up to? Katie: Oh nothing, just driving down to Newport Beach for my friends Graduation Ceremony (or party. She started breaking up). I'm driving right now. If you like I can call you back later tonight, or tomorrow morning? Jason: Sure, whenever your available Katie: Okay I'll.....you....take care Jason: Hello? Katie: Hello? I'll call you later....tomorrow morning Jason: Oh okay then. Take care The converstation was a bit jumbled up but I was assuming she was going to call me either later or the next day. Well she never called. I even called her after the weekend was over and she never returns my calls. Now a weeks passed since I last called her (she still hasn't called me at this point), and I'm thinking in my head that she's not interested. But my meetings with her out in the parking lot are becomming more frequent, and the first rose I gave her is still there in her car. Everytime I see it, it's kinda serving me as a good and a bad memory. That she's keeping it because she probably likes me? But she's not interested in me? I really don't know what to do. I don't want to approach the level of a stalker. I'm still at the admirer level because she still doesn't know it's me, meaning she doesn't know how I look like. What should I do? |

I know most people tell me to not think over it. But that first rose is literally stuck on my mind. It's not affecting me to the extent where I can't focus on my daily duties at work and at home, but it's just killing me inside because I'm not sure if she's interested, or she's keeping it for the smell of the rose...or...
If she wasn't interested, she would've called. Your right ismetina. But, she hasn't really returned my calls. The encounters out at work is becomming more frequent and I'm not sure if I should take it as a sign to introduce myself and tell her who's the one leaving the roses for her. It's been a week already and well...no word. |

just go up to her....after work of course and be standing by her car with a rose in your hand You think so? You wouldn't think thats going a bit too far? Like I said, I don't want to seem like I"m stalking her by waiting by her car |

That's a hard one. Try another rose? You see her all the time in the parking lot, but she doesn't know what you look like? Leave her a picture with the next rose?

sounds like a crush Maybe it is. But I kinda feel "compelled" to continue leaving those roses for her. I want her to know that she's beautiful. Stunning...the person who ends up with her would be so lucky to have someone like her |

Like I said, I feel "compelled" to leave another rose. To continue doing it. I just don't want to go too far. I follow things by the book and I just think I might end up going too far waiting for her when she gets out. It has crossed my mind though |

I would have been flattered.

It doesn't make sense |

I would be too scared to meet someone I'd never seen before...that's pretty intimidating. Maybe start a conversation in the parking lot and if it seems to be going friendly like, then tell her you are her rose guy.

I would have been flattered. If I knew you would be, I would have introduced myself, but. I guess I'm one of those guys who admire women from far away and wishes to do something about it, but can't because I feel like I'm in no position to do anything about it |
