Yesterday as I was getting ready to leave the gym, I saw a note sitting on my car window. It read "Hey, saw you going into the gym as I was leaving. You are beautiful! Life is too short to miss an oppurtunity. If you are available or interested shoot me a text: (phone number). Have a great evening- (His name). " Obviously, I was/am flattered! There are 2 ways to take that though, it can either be really creepy or really nice. I am debating wether to text him or not. If I do, when should I? Wait a few days or now? Don't want to seem desperate. But also don't want him to think I'm not interested.

Leave texting.. Why don't you call him up(from some random number I would suggest, not yours) and just shoot a random conversation? Try to tell him you want to find him on Facebook or something and then check him out?
Be sure he is a good guy before actually meeting him up or giving him your number.
But yeah, It is worth taking a chance on! ;) [ tanvinautiyal's advice column | Ask tanvinautiyal A Question ]

Adding onto what Razhie already said; How do you know you were the only one to receive a note on your car? It is very possible he has played this field many times and this is where you got to be careful with chances you take. Flattering?..I suppose in a way it could be but I would look at it more as creepy than flattering. [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
Razhie answered Wednesday March 2 2011, 9:05 pm: Slighty older woman here - and I'm going to go with creepy over cute.
Do you know who this person is? What his age is? What he looks like? Are you interested? How could you know?
It's normal to be flattered and curious, but be cautious. Use e-mails and texts. You might try googling your cell phone number to make sure it doesn't lead back to your home or work address or your full name - you wouldn't want a complete stranger finding that out right away in this situation. If you are going to do this, treat it like online dating and make sure a friend knows where you are and when you'll be back, and you meet in a safe public place.
Be smart about it. Don't let the compliment carry you away. Maybe he is really just a nice guy, but make sure you're still safe if he isn't. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
