Nowhere2Turn Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Ok this is where I get really stumped on, I'm out of school but I take class more for my own interest, so it's mostly art, photography and design classes. So say I meet someone, who is like myself out of school, working fulltime .. and we seem to 'hit it off' either on that very first day of class, or the first time we actually talk to each other. Am I supposed to get straight to her phone number and/or asking out right then, or at least by the next class meeting? Cause that just feels waaay too desperate and needy to me. But then, when I do wait, by the 3rd, 4th class I feel I'm dragged down into friend mode, because I'm holding back my excitement and just lose it, and then I wonder if she's losing it too and that further loses it and next thing I just have another cool classmate. This has been happening for the last.. pshh.. too many times. So what are the rules of classroom dating?? (This applies to the out of school people cause I'd assume the 18-24 year crowd you just 'hit it' ;P )
Lucasarts Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 classroom dating rules? i didnt even know such a thing existed. . . usually if you like someone thats in your class, you find a way to talk to them in class. If from there things seem to be going well, you ask for their number and see if they want to get together sometime outside of class. Of course this usually applies to every situation where two people are attracted to each other.
Author Nowhere2Turn Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 Well I don't really mean "rules", I'm just sayin I always feel like getting their number or asking out too soon in class feels awkward for me, but say I met them someplace I know I wouldn't see them again, then yeah it feels a little more crucial to get her number.
cherrylips10 Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Alright well...from a girls point of view...if you really think this girl digs you there is NO reason not to ask for her number, it could be just to hang out, and if you don't act soon she might lose interest or think YOU aren't into her. A number is not a commitment, it's just an opportunity to get to know someone...what's the worst that could happen?
xpaperxcutx Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 IF you've only recently know the girl, don't jump the gun and straightforwardly ask her out. Asking for her number is alright, especially in class. Since you are both classmate, I don't how you can't disguise the exchange of numbers as a way for classmates to contact each other.

I just suck at asking for phone numbers I swear.
