Default Re: Picking up some work chick... gameplan

I actually don't think this is very stalkerish at all looking her up in the Corporate directory. You guys got along at the food drive, had some laughs so you signed on to IM to say hi real quick, she may even be flattered that you looked her up. I don't think using a phone book makes you a stalker,. in some ways it makes you look confident which girls like.

Also i actually think you have a decent shot because of this:

"her will do. maybe i'll wander around there tomorrow and find you guys."

As someone mentioned she said TOMORROW instead of sometime and said WILL DO.

If she had no interest she would have said something like, well i'm pretty busy lately here at work so i don't know when i could.

Lastly, the thing about saying "You guys", somebody said this was a bad sign, i'm going to disagree. Girls are much different then us guys in general, they are coy and like to play games and are not very forward (with some exceptions)so they say things like "I'll come find YOU GUYS" and not "I'll come by and slob your knob at your desk while we get drunk".

In some regards saying YOU GUYS make her not seem like a stalker and i actually think is a little flirty on her part.

If your office layout looks like this you might have a chance


You'll probably want to do her here though, right under the desk. Bring a pillow.

Jesus.. half the battle is done. You showed some kind of sign that you like her. If she responds favorably, you're golden.

Ball is in her court. Just make sure you're not violating some stupid company policy about this kind of thing. You've shown the initiative, so she what her next move is. If she IM's you or comes around, you're gold. If not, play it cool until you see her again. Maybe get a happy hour together and invite her with a group - it feels less like you're working her and more of a "get to know" her thing.

Props for taking a shot, but she doesn't seem to be all that interested. She said the exact same things that someone who wasn't interested would say.

her: will do. maybe i'll wander around there tomorrow and find you guys.

Ouch.

You do talk smooth though, I give you that. Hope it works out.

Good idea! Then she will really know you're not just trying to get into your coworkers' pants. Way to diffuse the situation...

Nothing today.... she was offline from corporate IM all afternoon.

Will leave the ball in her court or until I randomly run into her.

Thread will die unless something happens or if I can manage to get the warranted pics.

My GF, who I met at work, just read the OP and thinks you have no shot.

As it is, nothing can be taken from the conversation. It all sounds like standard banter.

I met my gf at work too (safeway). I threw ice at her until she agreed to go out with me. Trying upping the violence.
