I went against your advice seddit, I did the creepy approach and it worked.

Working up in a logging road, I saw a cute dog walker who got her pickup stuck. I approached and pushed it out for her. She said thanks and we chatted about being a dog walker for a bit, I used to be interested as a side hustle. I returned to work and said, “I’m right over there if you need me”.

I found a sticker of a butterfly on a coffee lid in the forest, so I stuck it on a piece of paper and wrote “ hi, if you ever get stuck with anything, gimme a call. -guy who gave ya a push” then I stuck it on her windshield.

It took her two days and she texted me, I thought my creepy tactic failed. Success!
