Kris30 Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I had posted the other day about a party this weekend and how I want this guy I've been on a couple dates with to take me. I was going to drop a hint and see if he offered to take me. Well, I just mentioned it to my friend/boss (who is a phycologist) and she suggested I skip dropping the hint and just say "Hey do you want to go to so-and-so's party together and stop and have a drink on the way?" Thing is I don't think I like the idea of asking him to take me out kwim? I'm thinking I'll drop the hint and if he doesn't get it then mention going together. Thoughts?
St. Nick Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Ask him dammit. Liberal/feminism says, "Women can do anything a man can do", but I guess that excludes being direct when you're trying to get a guy you like, among other things.
dreamergrl Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Spend your time dropping hints... wondering... Or getting it over with and just ask him.

SomewhatExperienced Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 If you like the guy ask him. I hate when I date girls and they NEVER call first or ask me to do something and I always have to do the work. Not only is it annoying, there's no clear signals that the girl actually wants to spend time with me. If you ask him out, you're telling him that you like him, and it might help things really get moving in the relationship.
boogieboy Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Just admit that you cant handle it if he says no. And that dropping a hint will test him so you dont feel rejected.
EYECANDY000 Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Just ask him.. whats the worst he can say, No?
Fouts Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 It's not a marriage proposal, ask the guy to go to the party with you. Don't make something more than it is.
JustLooking123 Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 I presume that he's already asked you out several times, since you say that you've been on a few dates. I say that it's your turn to do the asking! It's just a party, not a marriage proposal, as someone upthread posted.
MalachiX Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 Hit him over the head with a blunt object. Then, dress him up but soak his tie in chlorophorm so he stays unconcious. Put a pair of sunglasses on him and take him to the party. Make sure you watch Weekend at Berny's so you understand the proper protical. If anyone asks why he's so quiet at the party, simply explain that he's speechless because he's so thrilled to be going out with you. Afterwards, put him in his apartment but leave a pair of your panties behind. Call him the next day and say that even though you still like him, you feel a bit hurt that he took advantage of you when you had a bit too much to drink. Now he'll feel obligated to go out with you to a number of other events and behave like a perfect gentleman. Or....you could just ask him to go...
counterman Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 Just ask him. If you want to go with him, ask him. Reminds me of the time when my ex-girlfriend asked me to ask her to a formal event.
Ms. Joolie Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 Yes, just ask him! And make the invitation sound fun and exciting! Say it in a way that will motivate him to go with you. Keep the line simple, practice it if you can first with a friend or in the mirror and then go at it. Good luck!

On topic, yeah be forward and ask him to go with you. Clears the air and you'll feel empowered about making an input and making a move. If he has been making the moves then he'll be thrilled for you to be reciprocating and will be more likely to make a move back.
