I met a girl I like who works next door to me, I've liked her for a while but I'm naff at asking girls out, and I like to make sure shes interested.anyway about 2 weeks ago I asked if she wanted to go for a drink sometime she said yeah. So I went back and give her my number, I had a week with no reply so I carried on, then she has been going out of her way to wave a me, and to have a chat with me, I caught her out the back today we had a bit of banter, so I thought id be more direct and say lets go for a drink next week, she said come in the shop and arrange it too see.. now I don't really meet that many girls I like, but I'm thinkin of gettin flowers delivered to her work anon, but at the same time I'm thinkin am I wasting my time? She's a bit younger so she might be shy or I'm gettin the wrong end of the stick. Thanks for your help.

Personally I think she just likes the idea of an older man fancying her really, so instead of making myself look a Pratt again I will leave it. Thanks for advice though guys.

 I see, she is being cautious with letting out her number. getting her number should be a major goal of the first small date.

Don't get her flowers,
but it sounds like she is interested- just shy. She is waiting for you to set it all up, so make it happen!

Unfortuantly I havent got her phone number as I just gave her mine as she was in the shop .. I am 23 and she is 18. I do like her but if she isn't intersted I would prefer to know. Will see if I can ask her out again.Thanks guys for the help .

So aside from major failure to communicate everything is going fine.
You asked her out for drinks at a non specific time. Gave her a phone number and waited for her to call. She was waiting for you to call. It's your job as the guy, or as the asker to set up the details. So after being patient she started to flirt with you. She is sending the message that you were waiting for. She wants you to set up the date. Fortunately, you did. Now you are wondering if she is interested. I'm here to tell you she has only sent positive messages to you.
About the flowers. No, especially not anonymously. Everyone in both offices knows you like her there is no secret here. Go on the date, see where it goes from there.

 Don't do the flower thing just yet, it's far too soon. Six months into a committed relationship is fine, but right now, you'll run the risk of looking too eager.
So go into her shop and set up a date and time for that drink. You've mentioned it twice to her now, so make it happen. Otherwise, you'll just look like you're making idle conversation and have no intention of following through.

Slow down. Don't get her flowers just yet. Take your time to get to know her.
