Should i approach this girl i see everyday?

8 Comments

There's this woman I always see on the way to work. We catch the same trains there and back and sometimes I see her inbetween that. So several times a day and I've never spoken to her. It feels really awkward when it's just me walking down a street alone and I look behind me and she's walking in the same direction only a few feet behind me. Our eyes have met on many occasions, usually cause I see movement from the corner of my eye and I instinctively turn and it's her. I always look away really quickly and so does she, I'm horrible with eye contact. But anyway, I know she recognises me for being around alot too.
I think she looks like a really nice person. I want to befriend her! I'm not saying I want to chat her up, I literally, in all seriousness, want to befriend her! She just looks like such a nice person!
This has been going on for months by the way! Never saying a word but always seeing each other! Only thing is... I'm shy as hell, don't have many friends cause I'm really quiet and bad at holding conversation. WHAT DO I DO???

You'll have to fake some confidence and hope she buys it 8
Be yourself (resulting in me saying something REALLY random, as I do) 8
Say: Hey I see you all the time so I just thought I'd introduce myself 41
Don't bother approaching her unless she makes an effort first 1
It's been months, by this point it'll only make things more awkward 1

    Something along the lines of "I can't help but notice we're always on the same commute - where do you work?"

    The rest is up to you to conduct a natural conversation.

    Looks can be deceiving, but say "hello" anyway.

    I had the same chance back in the 1970's,but did'nt go through with it like you so I don't know.If you're a true gambler I'd say go for it.But if it does'nt go well and things get fucked up,get prepared to find a different way of transportation to and from work and just plain avoid her.

    Well you don't really know her or any of your friends, so why not? Nothing really to lose right?

    If speaking to her is too much, just give her a teeny smile and/or wave.

    Introduce yourself, but don't be pushy. If she doesn't seem interested, back off.
