Starting Over Again......., Kind of hard to admit this stuff, but I ask for advice Options

[Random_Stranger]

Okay, need both the advice from a woman's perspective and men who know how to talk to girls (obviously I am tired of being shy and ready to get back out there). So I am over this whole "Ex" thing now and ready to get back out there. Naturally I am not too too aggressive, but aggressive is necessary in my city as women are not likely to just walk up and talk to you.

So I want some advice on etiquette. Is it okay to ask a chick out who you just met for the first time, let's say if you show up at her work? For instance....

Just tonight coming back from Tuner Tuesdays, I stopped off at a store to get some smokes. A girl about my age asked if I needed help. So I asked for the smokes, showed ID. Then she is like "So how are you doing tonight?" and I was like "Good" then I paused thinking "Why would she even bother talking to me? No one really does that they just ring you up and send your happy ass on your way". I am not the kind to take kindness for general interest, yet I was curious to pursue because she was pretty and had a Fat Booty (which I admit I like that* Here is where you laugh). So I asked her "How is your day?" and she was like "Good actually, and I get off work here in a bit so that is even better" and I was like "Yeah, that is good". Then she was like "Well you take care" and I said "you too" and left.

Now, normally this really doesn't happen to me. The only time it does is when I make eye contact with a girl and she smiles a lot and then we end up talking a bit before I leave. So I dunno how to read women. Was a situation like that just out of kindness? I mean, me personally, would strike up conversations with "regulars" be it man or woman, and if a girl caught my eye, then I try to talk to them. So would a woman operate the same way?

I am lost. It has been awhile (like a few years) since I have started dating (I mean seriously, not just having booty calls here and there from chicks a lil lower than your standards). Looking for something around my level (not saying that I am all that either though). I know this is a stupid thread, but I dunno who else to turn to and it is starting to be kind of a big deal for me. I mean I am 26! I am still young, but this stuff I should have down already!

You guys wanna flame me it is cool, but like I said, I really ask your thoughts.

EYE OF LA TIGRE!!!!!!


So that chick in the Chevron that I originally wrote about......... Guess what? We went in for some gas after Tuner Tuesday (because I knew she works there on Tuesdays) and I bought some Rockstar. I told my friends about her and they are like "Dude! You better go talk to her". Turns out she is single, I gave her my number and I said "Hey I know it isn't proper for a lady to call a guy, but I wasn't sure if you were talking to anyone and last time I seen you, I wanted to do this right then and there. Since then, I couldn't stop thinking about that and I promised myself I wouldn't let a chance like this go by if God gave me the chance again." She got a big smile and said "Yeah I am not seeing anyone, and I don't mind, so long as you don't have a girlfriend or anything."

So that's the story. No time to rejoice yet, I still have to hear from here. Any ideas on how to follow up should I not hear from her? Or just let this be as is and if I don't hear just continue to show up without mentioning anything of it? I know I could pull some hot chicks if I were to chase those kind, and she seems really nice. Not the kind of girl who is going to be looking like a superstar, but humble and attractive, which is perfect for me. Again, just based on appearances.
