I've been working in a grocery store deli for several months. I've had a huge crush on one of the cashiers. Every time I saw her we got along great. We both have a dry sense of humor and we seem to have really compatable personalities.
So anyways, on the morning of Valintine's Day, her best friend said that she could try to set me up with her. I was about to go home, and the girl that I had a crush on had not arrived to work yet. So I drew up a silly little card with a funny cartoon character that said "I love you lots...Happy Valintine's Day." Her friend said that she would give it to her as soon as she arrived to work.
The next day I walked up to her and asked her if she got my card. She gave me the most evil look that I have ever seen and would not talk to me. She has been acting that way for the last couple of weeks. I can't even say hi to her without her giving me a dirty look and walking right past me.
I can't think of anything that I did to upset her. I'm not a creepy looking stalker or anything like that. Why would a girl act this way?

Tell her it was a joke, tell her to stop giving you dirty looks, apologise and then walk away and leave it. She should be flattered if nothing else.

"Love" is a strong word but who knows what goes through the mind of a woman. Apologize to her for anything you might have said and tell her you hope you didn't do anything offensive.

Be a man about it and ask.

I hope her friend didn't say anything about you to her.

I have a different take. One of my coworkers kept dating women at the grocery store. It started getting awkward so he had to switch grocery stores.

**I wold be creeped out by anyone I didn't know who used the word love on a v-day card. Especially since you drew it. You would have been better off drawing a cute little character holding a flower that says "can we go out?" or just a flower.

You dropped the L-bomb too soon but I probably would have seen it as a cute gesture and not creepy but I don't know how you appear to her. Or maybe she just doesn't want to get in a relationship

Your problem was getting the best friend involved. Or, letting her involve herself.

I agree.

Also, you shouldn't have given her a card. You could have just asked something like, "Wanna grab a coffee or a drink after work?" If she was positive about that, both of you could have taken it slow and know each other better (hopefully).

For now, just ask her if you in any way offended her.

Exactly, her approach rushed him into making a bad decision, lol.

Mod cut: language.
