^Yes it is. Telling somebody not to do something stupid counts as advice. It's advising your course of action, is it not? Telling you to go for it would have been cruel to both of you. There's nothing deeper to say here, other than it's a bad idea. There is not a good way to handle this, given the obviously weird circumstances surrounding the situation. The fact you don't think your note idea is creepy speaks to the fact you really need to learn how to accept the input of others, rather than just request a group of PotD yesmen to back your play.

Any normal person would've either decided it was uncool or tried to build a rapport with her then see where it goes, not just randomly ask out some cashier or give her creepy af letter of confession... If you're politely flirty and she doesn't seem to like it as much as you do, drop it. If she seems excited, maybe you have an opening. Have an honest friend with you (that has had a girlfriend) while making small talk and just get their opinion afterwards without making any moves. There's some advice to test the water, at least. If your friend tells you to back off, give up.
