Asking Someone Out

>>17799824
I'm in a similar boat, I think I'll do it tomorrow if I manage to scoop together what little courage I have.

How do you plan to do it? I'm really shit at these things, but I was thinking along the lines of telling her that: I have a massive crush on you, however don't really know how to deal with that but most importantly don't want to creep you out with this.

I know it's shit and a little bit apologetic, but I'm thinking that it would give her two very clear ways of reacting - either the obvious choice that I'm hoping for, or in the other case, she could 'retreat' and simply say not to worry, you don't creep me out, blahblah.

Thoughts? Better ideas?

One thing I will say is you should never try to sound shy. Girls love confidence so be as confident as you can be. Ask what's she's doing tonight/tomorrow and if she says she's not doing anything take her to a decent restaurant. Doesn't have to be 5 star but don't bring up fast food. The more confidence you show the better your odds.

And be clear that you plan on considering it a date and not just two friends meeting together. Made that mistake before.

Thanks for the input. I'll see her tomorrow evening for a gym session with friends, so I'll try to grab her after that and talk to her in private.

She also isn't just a new acquaintance, but someone I've met 2 years ago, and she's been quite touchy in the last weeks - which I've never seen her do to someone else, so that gives me a bit of confidence. Also I know for a fact that she's never been romantically involved with anyone before, so I'm not fully convinced that the straight and direct route for the romantic dinner is the best one; but I'll definitely consider it.

No problem anon. You're issue made me think about mine a lot more and I'll definitly approach her tomorrow as well.

Best of luck

Same to you, but I feel I don't need luck as much as I need titanium balls.

Well, this is similar so I'll share what I did.

There's a girl at work who has been showing clear interest in me, flirting and whatnot. Friday, before work started, I caught her alone so I asked her specifically if she was seeing anybody, to which she said no, and then I asked her of she wanted to get drinks that evening.
She had other plans but said in the future she would like to go out. Kind of a bummer but you wont ever get the chance to go out if you never ask. Like another anon said, you gotta make sure it's presented as a date, not as a "friend outing".

Hope you gents the best with your endeavors, and remember, confidence is key! Fake it if you have to.
