writes: HiMy question is quite straight forward. Me and my mate often go down the pub on a regular basis. More recently we decided to stop at one of those Travel Lodge hotels which have a bar next to the reception. I have really taken a fancy to the hotel receptionist who works there. I would say she is early 20's, (like me), and I am always thinking about her. The problem is we have never actually chatted to each other, although we seem to make a lot of eye contact whilst im having my drink & she is working. When I arrive or leave, I always say goodbye and so does she, but how can I make a proper advance on her without looking silly?I dont want to embarrass myself or her whilst she is working, as its simply not fair on her and also she nearly always has a co-worker there with her and my mate is with me. I thought of taking the cowardly way out by writing my name & number on a bit of paper and sliding it on the desk one evening on the way out!! The good news is that I found out by one of her colleagues that she is single.Please help, I need your advice.Thanks

Fancy yourself as an agony aunt? Add your answer to this question! A reader, Paul, writes (22 February 2005): Dude... the world is made up of those who DO and those who want to. Chances are if you don't go and talk to her then some other idiot will get in before you. You know all those times you see a beautiful girl arm-in-arm with a guy and you think "WHAT is she doing with HIM?". Well the answer, my friend, is that he went and talked to her...Go talk to her - strike up a conversation. Be friendly. Smile a lot. Enjoy talking to her and she'll enjoy talking to you. Then ask her out - be blunt and don't make any excuses for finding her attractive. Even if people are listening - it doesn't matter. Remember most anyone who is overhearing/listening will envy the fact that you have the balls to do it. And women find it VERY attractive.
A reader, Ellen, writes (20 February 2005): Bravo to you for not wanting to make her feel uncomfortable at her place of employment. I think the card idea is wonderful. You may want to find silly reasons to strike up a little conversation a time or two looking for a nearby place you you overheard someone talking about or perhaps what the weather is supposed to be like for the next day for an event you might go to(or not since its just for conversation). Also, have you considered sending flowers with a note. She can choose whether or not to let her co-workers know who sent them. Best wishes.
