Want to ask a girl out.

    Hi

    Okay, there's a girl I know who I have fancied for a log time. I am 21 and she is 20 ad we know each other since primary school. Now when I say know each other, I mean know off each other more so than actually know each other well. We used to get on well when we were younger but as we got older we went our separate ways.

    She is kind of shy which is why I am nervous about asking her out. I worry if I do it the wrong way she might say no.

    Any advice?

    Thanks

    Just be asking her. If not maybe another will and how will you feel? Better to try and fail than not try.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Magico Gonzalez


    My advice.

    Invent a time machine and don't ask this question in after hours.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,642 ✭✭✭MRnotlob606


    Buy her lubricant and handcuffs in without a specific context.

    Ask her out. What's the worst she will say? No? If she says no, at least you can move on and focus your attention on somebody else. And as the saying goes, if you're not in, you can't win ;)

    I'm a bit older than ye and maybe things have changed but would you wait until you meet her on a night out and chat her then? Not when you bananas drunk btw.
    The new way might be to Facebook her or whatever but that's just weird if you ask me! At least in a pub, if you not gettin the right kind of vibes, you can go on about your business without being embarrassed.
    Good luck!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,449 ✭✭✭✭One eyed Jack


    OP if you're nervous and the girl is shy, that's a recipe for disaster.

    Just ask her out and don't make a big song and dance about it. She might say no, and then again she might ravish you! :eek:


    Seriously though, don't build it up to be something it isn't, it's asking a girl out, not asking her to lend you a kidney or anything :)

    She might say no even if you do it the absolutely perfect way. But at least then you'll know. Just do it. If she's not interested, no big deal. There's 3.5 billion women in the world. It'll only be weird if you make it weird. Ask her, and if she's not interested, shrug you shoulders and say something along the lines of "ah well, can't blame me for trying, you're gorgeous, anyway, ... (and then chat away as normal)".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,779 ✭✭✭Day Lewin


    Chat, smile at her, ask her pleasantly and without too much pressure.

    "The new Bond film is on at the Plaza this weekend, would you like to see it with me? And maybe we could have a drink afterwards. Unless you are busy, of course."

    Anything along those lines.

    Do you ever see her in person, or do you have her on facebook or the like?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭ChippingSodbury


    Forget about any potential embarrassment if she says no!
    Think positive: if she says yes, woo hoo!!!
    If she says no, she should be flattered you asked (and if she's not, she's a wagon not worth caring about)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,452 ✭✭✭ads20101


    For the love of god......

    Are you serious op?

    Just ask her, its not like you're in the friendship zone.

    Hey, what's the worst that can happen?

    Aww my best friend is a guy and I LOVE stories like this. Just be honest and direct. Ask her to the cinema and maybe a drink afterwards and than ye can chat too, and you'll get a sense when ye're chatting if she feels the same. Good luck x

    Ask her would she like to be Iron Woman 2.0.

    If she say yes tell her how happy you are..




















    Cos you've a pile of clothes building up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭snickerpuss


    When I was 23 I reconnected with someone I knew as a teenager but had never been close to. We ended up really hitting it off and now we're getting married next month :)

    So run!

    Kidding, definitely do it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Magico Gonzalez


    I want to believe this is real. I do want to....

    Don't feckin ask her out on feckin Facebook for feck sake! Jesus Christ how did the world work at all before that pile of $hite was invented!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 61 ✭✭Iron Man 2.0


    I don't think shes had a boyfriend before but she is sooooo cute and I would love to get to know her better. I know I just have to bite the bullet and ask her out but now I have to build up the courage.

    how are you going to deal with the rejection when she calls the guards?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 172 ✭✭Steve_Carella


    My friend is going out with her sister, so I wonder if that could help?

    Suggest to her that ye get together to do a four-in-a-room swingers sex session. Then when you're banging the sister while your friend smashes your lady's back doors open, you can ask the sister if you're in with a chance with your fancy woman, does she ever talk about you, does she have a picture of your face on the top of her vibrator etc.

    Or sit outside her bedroom for hours with a telescope, call her and watch her reaction when she sees your number come up. If she looks happy you know you're on to a good thing.

    Personal issues?

    Ah not really serious enough for personal issues. But I have got some very good advice here so Im happy with my decision. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,533 ✭✭✭Colonialboy


    Do something.
    Find some social event that YOU are interested in. Something that your interested in. There's no point starting relationship if ye have nothing in common. Ask her along on date. If she is as a nice as you say then she deserves to be asked out in a proper way.
    It's nerve wracking but you have no choice ... you obviously have some feelings for her..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 61 ✭✭Iron Man 2.0


    Who knows she could be one of the posters in this thread. Any 20 year old Donegal women on here? lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,431 ✭✭✭Sky King


    Write her a poem. Girls love that kind of stuff.

    Roses are red
    Violets are blue
    I have a knife
    Get in the van


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 224 ✭✭SoftMicro


    Invite her round for dinner and cook some coddle. I've got the perfect recipe, never fails.

    are you in the news lately


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 346 ✭✭jimmypenguin


    just ask her.. she'll be delighted. and if not. it wasnt meant to be right now but may be in the future..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 61 ✭✭Iron Man 2.0


    The last few times I have seen her out, she has been quite shy around me. She is quite outgoing though and seems lively with her friends. I think asking her straight out would put her on the spot. Suppose no other option really.


  • Site Banned Posts: 16 sensible option


    invite her out to a shared social or cultural event, ask if she wants coffee afterwards. she will inferred that a romantic liason is anticipated without it being stated bluntly. expect no sex until a future date.
    thank this post


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 61 ✭✭Iron Man 2.0


    I think asking her out of the blue might put her under too much pressure. If I could meet her out and get chatting it would be a better start but not ideal chatting in a nightclub.

    And she saw it and no reply :(....................Game over, ball burst.
