I think this is the right place to ask this, but i am not sure because it's not exactly about dating yet, if it's ever going to come to that.
I had to go to veterinarian quite a bit lately for my dog and i noticed an assistent there, a very friendly and nice young lady. The thing is, we haven't spoken a whole lot. But i do think i've noticed things. I will now write what our conversations so far consisted of. Last tuesday i went there with my dog, she has a problem with her blatter. While i was waiting for the vet my dog had a small incident where she peed on the ground. The assistent walked towards us and cleaned it up right away, and i said sorry for this and she said it was ok. I then tried to make light of the situation in a friendly way by saying ''It's a good thing they didn't put a carpet here'' and she looked back with a smile and friendly said ''Wouldn't be very wise to put that in vet's place.''
As for real conversations with her that's about it. Looking back on it i could have talked some more with her, but i didn't. But i would be lying if i didn't say i am definitely interested in her, as soon as i saw her i liked her to be honest. As for things i've noticed....the way she looked at me when i arrived there and she told me to take a seat, the way she seems to behave when standing next to me, a bit shy i would say, or when the vet was talking t0 me i noticed her glancing at me. Basically she behaves very different towards me compared to other assistents or just women in general. The way she looked and smiled at me when she said gooddbye when i left....to me it feels like the interest could be mutual. Problem is, i've had similar experiences in my life and i turned out to be wrong on it and that the woman in question was just being friendly.
So........i just need a push in the right direction. We've spoken so briefly i'm not sure i should just flat out ask her out next time i go there and i already know i will be going there several times either tomorrow or else definitely next week for my dog. Life is too short to dwell on stuff though, so what would you do if you were in my shoes?
@MosquitoSmasher,
It does sound like she was being polite and friendly with a customer.
At the same time there is nothing wrong with you inviting her out for a coffee/tea. The next time you go, as you leave, ask her if she'd like to go out for a tea sometime. If she says yes, complete the invitation. If she says no, smile and let her know that's ok.
Did her puppils dilatted in your presence?
Did she blushed?
What was her body language?
Since there was almost no talking only you can tell...
As someone said before me there is no harm in politly trying your luck.
If things go sour take it lightly, it means nothing bout you. She might be engaged already in a relationship or simply have a different taste.
People often tend to think they failed at some level. Its the wrong accessment...
...in my case 13 years ago without doing nothing the women of my life fell from the sky on my lap when I least expected. We're perfect match no effort was needed to impress each other...these things have their own timing. Let life roll n best of luck.
First of all thanks for the replies, i appreciate it. I did not really pay attention to any of that to be honest and it's hard to explain but at that moment to me it felt there was something. It's definitely possible that she was just being kind but to me it seemed very different from how the other assistent yesterday spoke to me and helped me with things. There was a crystal clear difference, so if i had to guess i would say i do think the interest is mutual. Just the way she looks at me and seems somewhat shy when talking to me. It really could all be purely friendliness to a customer though, very true.
Looking back on it i should have asked her if she had a dog as well, showing my interest in her and just chatting a little. Of course this doesn't mean it's too late now. Next time i could do that and during a follow up i could ask how she's doing and her dog(s). Problem with me has always been that i realize these things when it's already too late for it for that day. I'm already back home again when these things i could have talked about appear in my head. I should learn from that. Either way, if the interest is mutual she'll probably would like to go for a drink or a walk with the dog but if not, that's ok too.
