Missed a trick?

Cute female checkout operator, half my age. Very bright, chatty, friendly, quirky. We seemed to have a rapport right away. I make a point of going to her checkout whenever I see she's working - once or twice a week. She waves and smiles and says hi if she sees me around the store. I think about her a lot - but I really don't want to come across as some creepy stalker type. Hadn't seen her this week until today. She was her usual chirpy self. Asked me how my week had been and I said busy and a bit griefy. She said "I'm sorry to hear that. Is there anything I can do to help?" I replied, flippantly, "Sell me a winning lottery ticket?" Carried on packing my shopping, paid. She said "See you soon". I said "See you next week".
Drove home. Been kicking myself ever since 😕🙄

Ask her if she'd like to go out for a coffee sometime. The worst thing is she'd say no and you could always shop at another store if either of you is embarrassed. But if you don't ask, you'll never know.

@Fluffybull that's what's been going round in my head. Should have taken the chance when she said what she did really 🙄
Don't know if I have the nerve either - especially in a public setting. I'm mostly on the introvert side, despite my maturity.

@anglais It's more difficult with other people around. You always think "what if they see me turned down?" But they're strangers, just customers in a shop, you probably will never see them again ☺️

@Fluffybull good point. We'll see what transpires. It'll have to be when I'm "in the zone". Won't see her until next week anyway, as I'm not at work 😏

Do you know if she’s single ?

@Barny52 not for sure - but I get that impression.

@btchstfu so why did she say that particular thing? It's an odd kind of comment for normal checkout chat, don't you think?

@anglais Agree 👍
