I want to ask the bar man out

    I'm seated in a pub. This is my second drink. The bar man is a cute ginger with a pretty mouth. I want to ask him out but I'm shy. Also, this is my favourite pub. If he says no, I will be too embarrassed to come back. What to do, what to do?

    Tell him you want him to squeal like a pig.

    Phone number on a beer-mat when you're paying for your next round and tell him to call you if he wants his tip.

    Ask him does he go there often.

    He'll know you're having a laugh but at the same time he'll know you're sort of chatting him up.
    There ya go, you're funny and you're interested.

    If he's not gay or taken, you're getting some.

    let the attraction move you over there and let the universe and nature take care of the rest.

    Vomit over the counter. If he smiles at you and tells you not to worry, these things happen, while cleaning it up, then he likes you too, so ask him out.

    Around about your eleventeenth drink go to the bog , get some condoms and stretch one over your head .
    The walk from the bog to your seat/floor should easily guarantee you instant local fame.

    Good luck , little one .

    Tell him you'd like a long screw up against a wall... And a cocktail.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,754 ✭✭✭Itwasntme.


    He always remembers my name and makes small talk whenever I come in. Is that a sign that he wants to give it to me or am I just delusional?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,065 ✭✭✭crazygeryy


    ask me I'm fine with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,324 ✭✭✭BillyMitchel


    Stop staring at me OP you're creeping me out.

    It's not ginger, it's strawberry blonde BTW.

    I'll meet you around the back at 8.15, I'm on a break then. Bend over the barrell for me.

    I would be mortified if you were actually the same barman! Don't tease me, you might give me a heart attack!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    Wait until your sixth or seventh drink at least.

    That way you can be sure you'll be at your most charming.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Now I'm afraid to say that while I don't have much experience in the art of chatting up ginger barmen with pretty mouths but it seems to me that the only solution is to walk straight up to him and say "You have a pretty mouth" and if he looks at you funny just say "Can I have a pint of stout?" and down it right in front of him...win win :pac:

    Mark your territory by pissing on his legs.

    I'm by myself. I'm worried it's might be even more weird if I ask him out because then he'll just think I've been sort of stealth stalking him. It's the truth but I don't want him to think it. I should just go home.....

    Definitely ask him, if he says no then so be it. You'll boost his confidence a little and you'll get a rush from it! I do anyway :o

    Aw dont go home yet. Get off the phone and chat to him :)

    If you do ask him out be prepared for him to say hes seeing someone though.
    If he is, then leave while you're sober with your dignity in tact.

    Is that all. Chipper here I come.

    Okay, my second drink is done. I'm going to get another drink and ask him. Or should I ask him before the drink so that if he says no, I won't be committed to staying in to finish it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 13,834 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    Ask him out, report back here immediately afterwards.

    Get another drink then ask him, cos if you ask him and he says no and then you take off out the door, he'll think you're just out to pick up anyone!
