[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 1994378, member: 7157"] While at QuikTrip soda fountain, I spotted a woman walking through the store; she was very attractive in the way I like women (age-appropriate, very slender, angular facial features, etc.), and she carried herself in a confident manner. No wedding ring - I checked. When I walked past her on my way to the counter, I flashed my best smile and said "Hi!" She didn't even respond; I figured as attractive as she was, she probably encounters that sort of attention every day, and just brushes it off. Ah well, I paid for my drink and left. It got me wondering though; did any of you folks meet your SO through a one-time chance encounter? I'm not talking about a class, the gym or a bar, or other location where you two were in the same location for a while or where you'd run into each other time and again. Just the one time, and you knew you'd probably never see that person again. If so, how did you approach the person other than spill your drink on her and offer to pay the dry cleaning bill? :wink2: [/QUOTE]
