Say hello to the First Day of Fall !!!!
Ok Michiganders, a question: I had to drive thru Charlotte today and I saw a cute young redhead trying to push a stroller full of groceries and a 2 year old down lansing road from wallmart. But a wheel had fallen off her stroller. I stopped, loaded her and all her things into my truck and drive her a mile or so to her home where I met her equally cute brunette room mate. I helped her unload and drive away with just a thank you.
Am I chivalrous, stupid ... Or both?

Depends... Did you get a phone number?
I did ... Just in case she looses another wheel or something ...
Then, you were chivalrous without being a cad. Bravo!
Then why do I feel so stupid?
I don't know you, but you got a number without being rude. You did a good deed without expecting anything, and you can sleep well without feeling guilty about not taking advantage of the situation. Call next week, ask if the wheel was fixed. That goes along way to getting a second opportunity to Ummmm broaden the horizon. Lol

I agree.
Perhaps you'll see either of them again, and then have something to strike up a conversation with and go further. Don't think back, keep thinking ahead.![]()
The question is: What would you have suggested?
You did the right thing--which is reward in itself--and got an opening for a possible opportunity down the road.
As they said, call in a little while and ask about the wheel. Then ask her about her interests, move the conversation to something general and cordial and friendly, then move to the latest movies, and would she like to go see one with you? And see what happens.
She may have a boyfriend. She may have a baby-daddy. She may be a lesbian, and the roommate is her partner. You don't know her situation, and until you do, take it slow. But move forward on it, if it's something you want to pursue.
All she can say is "no", and if she does you're no worse off than you were before asking. And if she says "yes"...![]()
