Ask her out

    Hey guys,

    I don't have the biggest problem in the world but here goes.
    I am currently on work experience as part of my college course and am half way through my placement.

    Now the thing is there is a girl who works here that I like but unfortunately I dont get to see much of her because she works on the far side of the office.

    I have spoken to her a couple of times and she seems really nice and I would like to ask her out.

    But heres my problem how do you get talking to someone you dont see?
    I dont want to go marching up to her and demanding her number because I dont know her well enough and I dont want to embarrass her in front of all her colleagues either.

    I found her profile on bebo but would it look strange if I added her as a friend when I dont know her that well?
    So should I just leave it and forget about it OR bite the bullet and ask her for her number?
    The thing is I dont want to come across all weird so what should I do?????

    Thanks in advance

    As they say, you ever know till you try! I agree with the comment above, there is no shame in asking and if don't ask you will regret it. Toughen up and bite the bullet!

    Let us know what happens :)

    Find an excuse to go to her place of work. Get into conversation about some thing or other... maybe some funny thing that happened to you this week (make something up !) and at the end... casually ... ask if she would like coffee with you sometimes..... look into her eyes when you ask, and smile.

    if she says no ... well ... you did your best :)


    All the best !

    A good way to get talking in that situation is the next time you speak to her, swing the conversation towards joke emails (assuming you have some, and obviously don't send her something too ropey lol), try to do this with a group of people if possible, looks way less dodgy that way haha, send those folks on the joke emails and then it's a good excuse for you two to chat on the mail system, you can say to her that you should head out for a drink / coffee sometime (lol don't say this in the first email), if she has a bf then I'd assume that she will probably indicate this, either way it's probably less embarassing than getting rejected in front of a crowd :)

    Lol sure it's worth a go, even if you get nowhere, you may still become good friends with her :)

    Go for it.

    Just don't dance to her front, or anything mad like that.
