Jacked from LSA: "So..
Intro info: Im more of a classical female thus meaning I like guys to
approach me first.

A few days ago I was shopping at BJ's wholesale and I was buying
groceries and other non food items. I saw this tall fair skinned
attractive man. I saw the side of him and I was so intrigued. I never
saw him work there before, and I didn't get to see his face.

So, I was debating whether on coming back to the meat section or
continue shopping. I was like naw.. f*** that. So, I strolled with my
cart over to the meat section and I was pretending like I was looking at
my food list and wasn't finding anything.

He asked, "Do you need help?". And bingo! I saw his freakin face. I
almost fell out inside, but I replied with a no. Now, I usually shop at
this establishment, should I break my moral/risk code and talk to him?
How do I approach him?

Adding on to the story:

I have been asking some friends and I thought their advice was horrible
Example, " Crack a joke about meat, and then ask if he has a girlfriend"
( Do you have
some big tenderloins, where do you pack the big meat at? " [insert;
laughter] And then continue talking".

I almost went with that wack ish.

My other friend told me it wasn't a big deal. Ask him something relating
to certain items, and let him pick up the cue to whether he is
interested or not. If not, keep it moving.

I dont know. Maybe I am over-thinking this. Maybe its me creating this
fairy tale or something. Or afraid of rejection.

My Question to you ladies, is how would you handle this situation
the next time you came to the shop. And how do you approach men
of higher statuses?

Damn, no one wants to reply?
Have an item in mind that you really need help with. Ask him to take you there and start a sincere and friendly conversation with him. Something about the meat, maybe tell him you have a meal to prepare and how you're not sure of the recipe. Ask for his advice and take it from there. If he's interested he'll smile and try to give you an answer. If he's not he will point you in the right direction and keep it moving. If he's shy, he might smile and give you an "I don't know" shrug. Those are my favourites...you just keep warming them up until you get them talking to you!

Good luck! Please write us an update ;)
When u ask him how to prepare the meat, make a comment to the effect of need him/someone to come taste it to make sure it's right. Tell him your place and what time (be a little aggressive) this should lead into s convo about if he is in a relationship or not

How do I approach men of higher status? Question, are you saying the meat man is of high status? I just want to know...no pun intended...BUT when I do approach a man, I am just honest by saying "hey I noticed you the other day and just wanted to know, if you're not seeing anyone maybe we can go out for dinner or drinks" SIMPLE....we're all grown..don't throw lame jokes until the date lol then that'll show him you have a sense of humor
Right You lost me with the HIGHER STATUS comment... See now WITH me I'm a fool and I wouldof said..... Oh My you are a Cute Pie... Got a GURL??? From there I would continue on... These days it doesn't matter whether you book them or they book you... REALLY!!!!

LOL at you two.

He does work in the meat department and if he just so happens to be the butcher, then me makes pretty good money

I would jokingly ask him if the meat is really fresh?
Then ask if he eats it?
That way your asking him about something he knows about since he works there. and it won't make you look desperate because they are valid questions.
The trick is how he responds.
while the 1st question may get a one or two word answer.
the 2nd question should make him laugh or blush and lead to a more indept response.

If he say he has ate it. Put him on the spot "laugh, call his bluff and say when?
If he says he hasn't, then laugh and take the "Ohh so it's not good enough for you but it is for me huh?

Both of these responses should lead to a question about cooking then you can easily throw in "so do you cook or your the type that lets ya girl cook for you?

With that you should have all you need to know and hopefully a plans to chat about this later....lol.
Oh no. Lol. This isn't even my "article"
I just took it from LSA. I was asking you ladies
on how you would approach the situation

and how do you approach a man with higher statuses?

Lol, no.. the meat man would not be considered a higher status.
