For months I've been wallowing in regret thinking of all the things I should have said but didn't have the nerve to! Well, yesterday she came back and I said said all that stuff wanted to when I first saw her. During our conversation I made her laugh a lot. I asked her for her number and she gave me a contemplative smile then she put it in my phone. For several hours after that I felt all was right with the world. I was walking on air like Fred Astaire! Well, I called her number last night and the reply I got was a machine saying "the number you dialed is not a working number" I'm so heartbroken right now. I mean, spend months building up my confidence to talk to this girl and then this happens...Did she write the number wrong or was she just playing me to the left?

I feel proud of myself for taking a chance like that. That was really the first time I've ever walked up to a girl I didn't know and try to get her number. It was a good learning experience. I talked to the dude who got her number back in august today (he's back for a week) she sent him a happy thanksgiving text. I guess they talk on the phone a lot.
I wouldn't say I have confidence issues, but going up to beautiful women I don't know has always terrified me. In school was I overweight, then I worked out lost a bunch of weight and I hear through various female grapevines that I'm really good looking. So being New to the "game" I'm still fine tuning and acquiring skills so to speak.
So, now I have a new theory that maybe you guys could comment on. If I'm good looking, funny, charming, and nice, then why would she not give me her number? I think she may have been into me a little, but didn't want to get into a situation where she was being pursued by two guys who work at the same place.

I looked for her on facebook back in august and found her. I sent a message asking if it was her I saw that day in the store, but I didn't get a reply. So I don't think I will be going the facebook route again.

Sounds 50 : 50 to me.
You'll just have to wait until you see her again and then tell her you tried to call her.
Either that of can you try and find her on facebook or something and send a message?
Good Luck!! xx
