Update everybody. I ran into her like 5 more times and left my headphones in and let her initiate every single time and do all the work. When we’d chat I would flirt subtly, pass little shit tests and be the first to leave. The last time I saw her I elbowed her and said catch you later. She didn’t want me to leave and when I went to my car she rushed out behind me and pulled off her mask. She had a smirk and when I was pulling out she stood behind my car with a big smile at this point and was waving. I saw it in my rear view mirror. I decided it was enough investment in her to initiate a text interaction if I didn’t hear from her in a half hr. I did and she replied in under a minute. Texts were going great until I sent 2 voice notes getting ahead of myself and too comfortable 😐. She didn’t reply and I believe she went to another store to avoid me today. Every time I’ve gone there since I met her I have seen her. I think I may have fucked it up for good. Had 2 other great interactions yesterday leading to #s and fucked up both of them as well. Feels bad man. I ruin it every time

I see her in the morning before work. She knows I work far away. We were on the topic of work and the weather.. She said something about shoveling the driveway was hard on her own. I took it as a shit test and went non reactive and moving along. She was replying quick, I took a little while and said “Just got all the way to work, set up shop, and then closed up shop. The roads out here are shit, be safe.” Hr later I asked advice from a game aware person. He said I should add more excitement and a tease responding to her prior text. An hr later I said in a joking voice.. “oh by the way if you’re looking for someone to shovel snow I’m pretty damn good however I do charge a very steep price so I hope you have some money girl”

I took the second one word for word from him. I didn’t like it at first, he insisted.. and he’s actually given me really solid advice and completely turned around lame text convos before for me. This is the only time it didn’t work..
