Today I was studying at the library and this elegantly dressed skinny brunette woman walked past me and sat at the table right in front of me. She was a gorgeous birdie despite her years, my guess was that she is probably 35-50 but she looked 30. Exactly my type but older (im in my early 20s). I kept glancing at her to see if she would look at me but she never did. She sat down and started writing in her notebook immediately.

I thought about leaving her a written note or something because the library was quiet and there was a lot of people around, but instead I decided to write this message in my notes app on my phone to show it to her:

"Hi I find you really attractive, I was wondering if I could get your number and we could go out on a walk sometime?"

I was nervous so I went to the bathroom to chill out a bit and then I went back to my seat. I counted down 3..2..1.. after packing my stuff and I got up and walked up to her table.

I stood in front of her for a second looking at her and after a moment she looked up at me and smiled.

I said "hi can I sit here", and she's like yeah sure. I pulled out the chair and sat down across from her. I held up my hand with the "hold on" gesture while I pulled up the note I had written on my phone and then I showed her the note.

She took a moment to read it with a confused facial expression and then immediately started blushing and laughing quietly. Her whole face lit up with her smile. She held up her hand to show her marriage ring on her ring finger and whispered "sorry I'm married" with a smile. I held up my hand again with the hold on gesture and typed this in my phone:

"Do you have a daughter?"

Then I showed it to her. She started trying to contain her laughter again and shook her head smiling at me in disbelief.

Then I shrugged my shoulders, got up, waved at at her with a smile and left.

In retrospect I should have asked her if she was happily married but I didn't think quick enough. I hope I see her again.
