A little advice or Guidance Needed

    Hey All, this is probably a little bit silly but I'm going to ask for your advice anyways.
    Was out over the weekend and my friend and myself got chatting to a girl and her friend. We spent most of the night just dancing together and afterwards I asked the girls to come back to mine with me and my friend. We stayed up to the wee hours having a few drinks and just chatting and having a laugh really, before heading up to bed. When we got into bed nothing happened, we just chatted some more for a while, then both got undressed and just sort of held eachother and fell asleep. The next morning it was much of the same we were just chatting and having a laugh before my friend came in and asked me to drop him to work. So we all got in the car soon after and I dropped the two girls off and then had to drop my friend to work. But it was only after I dropped her off that I realised that I had completely forgotten to ask her for her number cause I did quite like this girl. We had been just having such a laugh that I completey forgot to ask her.
    Ive been a little gutted the last couple of days that I could have been so stupid and she probably thinks now that I never asked her for it cause she never put out the night before which to be honest didnt really bother me, yeah of course it would have been nice but I'm more gutted about the fact that I stupidly never got her number off her.
    I know kind of where she lives as I dropped her near to her place, but I dont think I can just knock at some door and say is such and such there....I think I may come across as some sort of stalker. I did a quick search on a couple of social networking sites but no joy. I have a fair idea where she works from what she told me, but dont know what I should do. Should I just give up and forget about it altogether? Apologies if I come across as a little bit of a sado, its just I've never been in such a situation before and any advice would be really appreciated.

    shes local

    You met her once, you will meet her again.

    Relax. :)

    Did you friend not get her friends number? If she stayed overnight also

    It isn't the most ludicrous idea to go knocking on doors on her street if you know her name... You don't really have anything to lose.You may never meet her again otherwise and at least you will have tried.

    It could all be very romantic and lovely. In fairness if you find her and she isn't impressed by that then she's clearly not that into you anyway!

    Hey. Just to answer some of your questions.

    She wouldnt actually be local for me so I wont really be able to just bump into her again, she lives about 30 mins drive away from me. And my friend didnt get the other girls number either, was kind of hoping he did cause it obviously would have made things pretty easy but he is a bit of a player so I know he is the kind of guy that will ever only want a one night stand, well for the forseeable future anyways.
    Do you really think that it wudnt be that weird to just go knocking on her door? Well to be honest I'm not 100% which house is hers, but I do know for defo which one her friend lives in, but I just thought it might freak her out a little if I just arrived at her door, so I was thinking if I found out her work number which I think I could get without much hassle, maybe try and contact her there?

    Similar thing happened to me, I went knocking, and it could hardly have went better!

    Watch your favourite comedian to get you in a good mood and then head over and start looking! Worked for me!

    Good luck!

    Cheers Gamgsam, sounds like a brill story. Really want to work the bottle up to do it now. Fair play to ya.

    Definitely try find her! It wouldn't actually be weird to knock on a door and say "Does X live here?" or "Is X in?" 'cause if the person says no, they'll probably say "You've got the wrong house, she lives over there" and then you'll know!

    You say the two of you had a great night and stuff so she is probably just as gutted as you are that you didn't ask her for her number. You have nothing to lose now by trying to find her 'cause if you don't, you'll only torture yourself with what if's which is worse than actually finding her and her saying she isn't interested! At least if you make the effort, you'll know where you stand and it sounds like a great story!

    Best of luck with it :)

    A similar thing happened to me, except I was the girl in the situation.
    Like you the guy didn't get my number but knew where I worked. So he tracked down my work email address and sent me an email - I've been going out with him for almost a year now!

    There's probably a thread lurking in here somewhere with a poor girl agonising about some guy who didn't get her number and she thinks the reason might be because of the fact that she didn't "put out". I'm a sucker for romance and I'd say go for it. It's not as if she's a complete stranger, is she? Some women dream of this type of thing happening to them their whole lives (I know I do!)...a man with enough balls to knock on strangers doors to find the woman who slept in his arms that fateful night! Go OP!!

    ...tell us how you get on....
