I'm inclined to agree. Which is why this is complex, and why it sucks. But that's life.

Scarlett, could you open up an Ask Scarlett thread opening with a few words about yourself.

Holy crikes that kid looks like Michael Cera

I've been in that situation before, and what would be great is to run into her in some other setting. For some reason the pressure vibe is all different, and you have a natural starter -- the sincere, "Hey, don't I know you from somewhere." The only problem is how to make this happen but not creepily so.

obviously stalk her

i love that floppy assigned probabilties to the various outcomes. that was awesome.

it also reminds me of lyrics from one of my favorite death cab songs:

"and i'll sit and wonder
of every love that could've been
if i'd only thought of something charming to say"

I'm waiting for her PECOTA projection. WhoooHooooo!!!!!!!!!

YES!!! I've been waiting for the era when my friends would start dropping and I'd have open-bar weddings littered across my schedule. Got two invites today. It took a hell of a long time, but it has begun.

Yeah, but the christening parties which follow aren't nearly as fun. And after that, all you're left with is wakes.

The thing about the jealous/wistful (doe-eyed/easy) bridesmaids is not false.

I just want to crank some Mike and the Mechanics and pour a natural light down the hatch.

My roommate is paying me to drink tonight; ain't that swell?

Somewhere I got it in my head that dilemma was spelled dilemna.

But here's the problem with your scenario. Me saying "dont I know you from somewhere" would make me feel like a jackass. Because I see this chick 5 days a week. She knows exactly where I know her from, I know exactly where I know her from, thats not fooling anyone. And it would just feel odd. I'd have to come up with something witty to say and I'd have to execute it perfectly. If I choke, thats the end of it. In college, I was aces in situations like this, but I was getting regular practice. My game isn't sharp at all right now, namely because I just haven't cared. And now I seem to care regarding a chick I don't even know. Fuck.

There's just no good answer here. She just needs to come up and talk to me. I need to send out a {magic vibe} so she knows thats a good idea.

C'mon now. If serendipity lands you a chance encounter in some other place, you'd be crazy not to say hello, like, "Hey, don't we work out at the same place?" You don't need anything witty.

I mean, "the chance encounter" is the dream. You have to do something with it.

I didn't say I wouldn't. I just said its a lot of pressure. Because it might be the only chance.

The thing I fear the most is that she has a boyfriend. That is the absolute worst case scenario from my point of view. I can understand her just not digging me, that happens, but if you hit on a chick that is involved, even if theres no way you could know it beforehand, it just feels really crappy. I hate being that guy.

And lets face it. Shes insanely cute. And she works out 5 days a week. She must have a boyfriend.

Girls work out 5 days a week because they don't have boyfriends.

[Dude]Thaaaaaaat's fucking interesting, man[/Dude]

A somewhat valid point I suppose.
