    How shy is she?

    I thought a message on FB would break the ice but sadly no good. My friend who is dating her sister says she is quite shy and a face to face might be best next step. (I asked him when I got no response from her)

    I'm double your age OP, but I believe the done things amongst the kids these days would be to snapchat her a photo of your throbbing erect member.

    If she's shy then you have to be really direct.

    "Hiya, I really really really want to shag you!"

    You might have to drag her out of her shell kicking and screaming, but she'll thank you in the long run!

    If she can't even be bothered replying than maybe she wasn't all that anyway. Chin up buddy.

    Okay, so not a great turn of events. I sent her a message yesterday, just a 'Hi ________, long time no chat, How have ya been? :)'.
    And she saw it and no reply :(....................Game over, ball burst.
    Hm, some people are just **** are replying unfortunately, it pisses me off no end but I know loads of people who will ignore any attempt to get in contact with them but are very friendly in person.

    I wouldnt give up all hope just yet, but it does make it harder and more awkward

    Awkward is the word id use. She may just not like speaking online, I'll assess the situation next time I see her in person.

    Is this your first boards account, or have you asked this sort of question before on another? You sound familiar.

    Here's a GIF that offers practical and realistic advice when it comes to finding that special someone.

    Don't faddle about with texts and facebook and interweb cobblers.

    Ask her to her face, when you are physically in the same area, using your voice and your mouth.

    I'm not gonna lie to ye alle. I don't think I can straight ask her out. She lives quite close to me and if she says no, things will be real awkward.

    You've messaged her on Facebook and she completely ignored you. Things ain't getting any less awkward now, sunshine. :pac:

    Just send a message to her on Facebook and ask her to go for a coffee, get it out of your system and move on!

    Keep ignoring the advice that everyone posted. That'll work.

    Ask her out or you'll end up a lonely bachelor.

    I'm not sure, if she's shy putting her on the spot out of the blue mightnt work out so well

    Call around to the shop sometime soon first and have a quick chat then ask her out a few days later

    If she's shy it'll be harder to ask her face to face, just send her the message on Facebook, easy as, if she doesn't reply who cares, she has already not replied once, and no one is that shy that they can't respond to a message online...

    From my experience, women are 100% likely to say no of you ask them out. And I'm clinically gorgeous.

    Next time you see her say Liam Neesons monologue from Taken word for word but replace all the bits about finding his daughter with going on a date.

    Any woman I've ever asked out in a normal way (not in nightclubs) has said yes. And I'm only ok looking!
