I am a man who ended up having a nice chat with a woman in the grocery store the other day and when I was talking to her, I noticed her blushing quite a bit so I was getting what I thought was a sign of interest from her. I made a flirtatious comment and her face got even more red but then she suddenly walked away mid-conversation. At that point I thought there were two possibilities as to what happened, either:

1) she just wasn't interested and that is why she walked away or..
2) she was becoming interested/attracted but the sexual tension got a little uncomfortable for her so she walked away.

Unfortunately, I made the mistake of just assuming #1 - that she wasn't interested and didn't approach her again when I saw her in the next aisle over but in retrospect I'm wondering if maybe I should have given her a few minutes and then approached her a 2nd time asking for her # or email address?

What do you guys/gals think?

It's a good thing you didn't approach her when you saw her in the next aisle. That's what creepy guys do: approach again after the woman has made it clear she doesn't want to talk.

or #3, the flirtatious comment crossed a line which is why she walked away mid-conversation?

#4: She farted and needed to escape before you figured it out.
#5: She really needed to pick her nose.

If she liked you a lot, 99% of the time she is staying unless she has an emergency where she needs to hurry up. She isn't blowing her shot at true love by playing games

Why would you ask for her email address?? I stopped asking for email addresses online lol

It's phone number or nothing.

If you were dealing with an extremely shy person who actually likes you, you'd need more time to work on them than what you have in a grocery store visit.

Very shy people are almost impossible to cold approach in settings where you only see them once.

Good thing you did not approach her again. My gut reaction was that you said something that you considered flirty, but it was really over the line and she decided to take off before things got any further.

What kind of conversation were you having?! Was she smiling while blushing? I blush when I get upset--did she appear upset or did she look like she was enjoying the conversation? Maybe she thought you were too much for her so she walked away. Imo, if she was interested, she would have made eye contact or lingered longer in the next aisle if she wanted you to approach her again.

she probably had a spontaneous orgasm from your flirty wit and just needed a minute to compose herself. next time you see her suggest a quickie in the store bathroom
