I know the whole thing about not bothering people at their workplace and I totally agree. However, yesterday I went to a restaurant and I felt some vibes with a waitress that I think are promising.

I was dressed pretty casually in converse and Levi’s and a nicely fitted shirt that I’ve gotten compliments on. As soon as I walked in the door I noticed the one waitress was stariiinnnggg. And I got to the table and my family was complimenting how nice my hair was (it’s naturally kinda beachy wavy). So I guess I could have been ‘eye catching’. Anyway…

Maybe the waitress could tell right away I was 🌈 because I have a Medusa piercing and ‘gay hands.’ She has a lip piercing as well and combines with her general look I think she was gay lol

She wasn’t the main waitress of our table she just brought a few things. But when she was serving me there was something about our eye contact that… lingered. And she was loading my baked potato and I asked her for some ketchup for my burger as well and then she completely forgot about bringing it and I wondered if maybe she was flustered.

The restaurant layout ‘curves’ and after dinner I looked up and she was on the bar side and watching me through a narrow section where the doorframes to the restaurant and bar overlap. I held my gaze at her so maybe she could get the hint that I was diggin her too. And at that point I felt certain she was into me and she walked away LOL

I’m thinking about going back into the restaurant and passing on my number. I thought about getting a tiny bunch of flowers delivered to her work with a note on it like ‘hi there I was in the other day and I thought the waitress with [description of her appearance] was really cute. I’d appreciate if you would pass on my number.’ Idk if that’s innapropriately or appropriately insane. But also I’ve never done anything like this before- would that be dangerous for her as a potentially gay woman working in a city that’s like Texas? Maybe I could dine there again (even though it’s expensive yikes) in hopes she’s on shift? But I don’t want to case the joint because once again I’d want her to feel comfortable at her place of work. Maybe if I got a rando delivery driver to bring flowers and made the note sound like it could have been a dude or a girl but include identifying things about me that she would have remembered if she was actually feeling me then perhaps she wouldn’t be embarrassed in front of her coworkers?

Advice welcome and if the girl im talking about stumbles on this post somehow- ‘Could I have the pleasure of taking you out on a date? 💐’

Edit: okay flowers and delivery are out of the question
