i work in a family business and this is located near other places. few weeks back a shop near us caught fire (sad yeh) and i spoke to the owner (asked if she wanted help or anything in the future).. and i also met one of her assistants (the place was a beauty salon).. and made smal talk.. and since that day i didnt see her again, until today, across the road from me in a cafe, she was getting lunch, so i pretended i wanted some food (which i bought and didnt want) made small talk again, this girl now has a new premissis where she works now (same beauty salon, different place.
she is the sort of lady that makes me go "wow" and out of breath. i really really want to get know her more, but how? i know where she works, but just cant go into a womens beauty salon (for obvious reason : me being a guy). sad thing is i start uni again this week and i wont be at work alot, only one day (thats if i have time). so i was thinking to somehow talk to her tommorow, and the only way to do that is...

to go into the salon and speak to her, but what to say?? i might not get the chance later on to speak to her (uni and all), i dont know anything about her except her name (which i keep forgetting cause i keep running it through my head (one of them things)).

Fern: i like the way you think.
i know this is freaky, but i got a faint plan, just walk past (on my way back to an imaginary place) and say "yeh i thought i'd pop in and say hi and see how the new place is lookin... blaa blaa".
is that ok? bad thing is, cause im working, im going to be all dirty and messy (its the job im in) so im not going to put on a good impression
PS. she is a decent lady, really nice.

Well I guess if you really think you won't see her again if you don't make your move, then you have nothing to lose!
You've spoken to her before so why don't you pop in, mention that you were just passing and saw her working. Ask more about the fire as you've kind of got that in common as you've spoken to her before. Maybe ask how long it took to get this new place up and running (even if you know - at least it opens the conversation).
Say you've got to get going, but you'd like to speak to her about it properly later - ask for her number or to meet for coffee/lunch. Day time things are fairly non datey so she'll be less inclined to say no if she hasn't made her mind up yet.
Good Luck!

I have a plan for you........ Can't you go into the salon and ask if they do any male treatments? Lots of guys have their chests waxed etc (I take it you have a hairy chest? If not, grow one immediately!) Either that, or go in and ask if they sell gift vouchers as it's your mothers birthday soon and you'd like to treat her. Once you're in there, tell this girl that you're off to Uni soon etc, and see where it goes from there. Good luck.

i think you will have to go into the salon .. i dont think you will be able to pretend that you just happened to be passing thru there and bumped into her by accident - i dont think she would buy it even if she didnt work in a salon.
Just walk in there around her lunchtime or something, and take the plunge and ask her out. If she is attracted to you (and a nice person) she will be impressed by your courage.
good luck

call the salon and ask her for a date it will be easier for you to do it over the phone and if she doesn't want to it will be easier for her to let you down easy .dont stop by she might think you are stalkin her. good luck
