We've never spoken, but our glances have met a couple of times and to be honest i'd love to get to know her, to see where it goes. I know her name, and know she went to the same college as me at the exact same time. I know this though a friend who used to work there, but know nothing more.I'm dying to introduce myself to her, have been for months. But a few things make makes this seem very daunting for me, as I've never done it before:- I don't know how I'd introduce myself, should I mention something about her looking familiar from college?- What if she has a boyfriend (a hunch tells me she might)... It'd be embarrassing as hell, and I'd never be able to shop there again to be honest.Has anyone got any advice? Thank you in advance.

 Do you have a shirt from the college you both went to? If so wear it :) Great conversation starter. Just say hi, make some small talk and see how it goes.
What is holding you back? That she MIGHT have a boyfriend? What if she doesn't? It's OK to make an ass out of yourself every now and then, just don't do it by ASSuming something.
OK?

Just ask her! Tell her she looks familiar and u wonder if u know her from college. keep it light and friendly. Each time she comes in smile say hi and ask her hoe she is. make a joke about the weather or something trivial. you should soon be able to talk by her reaction if she likes you. if she Jason a boyfriend so be it, at least u will have made a friend and improved your confidence and conversational skills with women. hey she may habeas some attractive friends! Tell her you and some mates are going to a club or a gig or something and she should come along with her mates. just remember light and friendly, not desperate with your tongue hanging out whilst u talk to her breast. you don't want her to feel like she's got a stalker! Good luck!
