I own his book but I can't remember exactly what he did. My mind thinks he either waited for her to end her shift and met her in the parking lot or he gave it to her manager but I honestly don't remember.

He asked her out and she flat out rejected him. He ate there for six weeks straight and he approached her and gave her his number and said that if she ever wanted to hang out or something to give him a call. A few days later she did and the rest is history.

Wow. I suspect it would be pretty unusual for something like that to work out. I guess she was watching him in the restaurant and must have liked what she saw. Maybe he was really courteous to the other waiters/waitresses or something. Or maybe they told her he was really nice or something. But it sounds pretty lucky to me that this actually worked out. I bet most of the time a guy would never hear from her if he did this.

Oh no! Rowdy Roddy Piper is a gentleman but he is also a professional wrestler who was into alcohol and drug use at the time and like many of the others from his generation he got his fair share of tail.

You never know until you try! If it is meant to be it will work out!

Sorry. It was a joke.

Do you have any acquaintances who have unmarried female friends ? Just like finding a job, it seems "friends of friends" works better than "cold calling" on a complete stranger. Another better idea would be approaching women that you meet doing social activities ... do you have any hobbies that you could engage in socially ?

That said, I guess it's not the end of the world if you ask her out and she's so mad she spills coffee on you ...
I think having someone visit the coffee shop for a meal or coffee and then having them inquire and offer your number is more classy than the 50 dollar bill idea. If a guy who was interested in me pulled off the introduction through a friend, I would be flattered that he is so respectful and mindful of my comfort zone.

when she gives you the tip box, left a note: "you're so beautiful. i'm gonna come again"

don't go there for a week. make her think about you in this time arrival.

after a week, go to the restaurant. write another note. do the same steps. after one more week, make a conversation face to face this time.

Leave off the 'come again' part. They could mistake that for a different kind of comming if you catch my drift.

I would laugh down to my boots if a man wrote that to me.

I don't think that would work. I wouldn't recommend it.
