Currently working part-time at a retail clothing store and going to school. I'll be completely honest, I've never had a girlfriend before, never had a first kiss, heck never even went on a date before not with a real girl that was happy. However, I know I have a chance to change that.
Back in High School, I was an introvert with social anxiety. I'm not in High School anymore, and working in retail and just getting a taste of the world outside of High School has immensely boosted my confidence. I've never really put much thought into a relationship, as my focus was on work and school until recently. Bear with me, this will be lengthy and thank you to anyone who reads all this and offers their input and advice.
I'm friendly with most of my co-workers, but with this girl in particular, we're always engaging in playful banter whenever we happen to be working together. As we are both working the register, we have some inside jokes about the customers. When I clock in and she notices me for the first time, she always seems elated to see me, "Yay, Randy is here!" She also seems very interested on what days we are both going to be working and always asking me when my shift ends. Whenever we buy something from the store, we both purposefully wait and let customers go ahead of us to the other cashiers just so we can ring each other up.
Unfortunately, because we're both part time, while we may work together on some days, our shifts are usually different and I never really get a chance to speak with her outside of work and I scarcely see her in the break room. There were some moments where I got to talk to her in the break room and I found out she's In the same college I'm in and she takes the exact same public transit I use to go to work and to come home from work. I've never asked, but I am confident that she doesn't have a boyfriend.
So the event that inspired me to make this topic happened a day ago. She finished her shift, and after we bade each other good night she said something like "Maybe I should go shopping, I'm going to your register." Her "shopping" consisted of grabbing a small package of biscuits from the queue line. then she waited in line and purposefully let customers go ahead of her when the cashiers called for the next customer, just so I could ring her up.
My shift ended 30 minutes after hers and I entertained the idea of meeting her at the bus stop. Next thing you know, there she is at the bus stop and she was thrilled that we would be sharing a bus ride home. Damn right I was thrilled as well. It was probably the best time I've had riding in public transportation; sharing and eating the biscuits she bought, talking about school, and laughing about our experiences at work.
I used to have a mild crush on her, but after that event, I am really infatuated with her. I have 0 experience of being in a relationship, and 0 experience in courtship, but I do know that I should take the initiative now and do something. Help me out guys, I'm very unsure as to what I should do next. Thank you if you've read this far and much thanks to any advice/input!
