I really need some help on whether I can salvage this.
I work in a retail store and we have a regular customer. She's been coming there a couple years, and only recently we got some banter going. Whenever she comes in I playfully teased her and she was into it. I notice after some time that when she walks in and see's me she gets a big smile, then changes it into a little smirk.
I ask her questions about herself, some probing about her relationship status and she seems single. Eventually I write my number on a receipt to give to her and she starts laughing with a smile and says ok she'll take it. I didn't hear back. She came in the next day and said she messaged me but I didn't respond. Turns out my handwriting was bad and she got the wrong number, so I wrote it neater and gave it back. Maybe 2hrs later she texts me that she's interested in a coffee/drink and asks for my facebook.
She hasn't added me on FB yet. I suggest a time/place for 3 days later and she agrees. But the day before she texts me back this:
Hey,
I'm really sorry but I'm unsure about going, you seem like a really nice guy
but I just got out of relationship and don't think I'm ready to start
seeing someone new x
I replied that we're still cool and she doesn't have to avoid my place of work cause of me. So anything I can do?
