So there's this girl who works at this place I like to hang out. She's really quiet, in fact we've never talked before. Actually she doesn't talk to anyone while she's working, she just quietly does her job (data management)

Anyway, she's really cute, and I see her often because I go to this place every day.

The only problem is she's really quiet, so I think she might be really shy.

Should I try talking to her? What should I say?

Oh, and I promise to keep updating TLnet with everything that happens. So give good advice!

No don't talk to her. What kind of response are you asking for Honesty, seriously?

Talk to her, it's a little more awkward now because you're in paralysis from analysis (and every day you procrastinate, it will make that eventual conversation that much more weird). If she's really as shy as you think, she'll welcome it and will be glad you did the male responsibility of breaking the ice. If she's not shy, maybe you can leap to sex.

Emo alert, please check into the testosterone thread to get your fix.

[edit: offcourse talk to her, just make some casual conversation or if that aint your thing get in there with a compliment, something like how you noticed her or w/e cause she was lookin fine. Don't try to be too smoothe just get in there with a smile on your face and feeling comfortable with yourself.]

i once liked this girl in my history class, she was quiet and introverted. and everyday i would just sit and stare at her gorgeous face and body. and i promised myself that one day i would talk to her. i didnt, i acted like a shy fuck and screwed up my chances of even becoming her friend. then she moved away, and i have been kicking myself ever since.
moral of the story: go talk to her! you have to pretend like she is just a casual acquaintance, just go up and talk to her. im sure she would love to talk to you if dont act all goofy and just try to make light conversation.

Dress up as a hydralisk and jump out at her when she is coming into work. If she screams and runs for cover, forget about it. However, if she pulls a Gauss rifle out and tries to mow you down, then marry that woman asap.

Seriously though, if you just hang out there, she might feel like she cant talk to you. Try to get her away from the office setting so she is not under the gaze of her co-workers. Then maybe she can open up a bit. After work coffee is pretty unobtrusive. After you have her, then just go from there to get to know her.
