ooglesnboogles Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 Hi everybody. The other day, I called up a cute girl I know and asked if she wanted to hang out this weekend. To be honest, I pretty much phrased it like that (I think I said "got anything going on this weekend?") and not directly "wanna go out with me?". Anyway, she said she had other stuff going on but she'd get back to me but judging by the way she said it, it sounded like she didn't think I was asking her out. I know, I know, not much good in that response. But we've been talking and hanging out a bit lately, in situations with others around, and I think she may have just seen it as me asking for something like that. From talking to her in those situations, I'm pretty sure the response would have been a little more surprised, but then again I don't really know her. I know I should've asked more directly but I got nervous and threw the script out the window and went with the first thing that came to mind. So, in light of all that, should I try asking her out directly and in person next time I see her? I really didn't get the feeling from the phone call that she was trying to let me down easy; I know what that usually sounds like, as well as the boyfriend line. But I'm not sure, and I don't want to seem like I'm the kind of guy who'll keep asking until that 'no' becomes a 'yes'. I was thinking of saying something like "I don't know if I was clear the other day so I wanted to ask a little more directly, would you like to go out on a date with me?" or something like that... Any suggestions/comments/ideas? Much obliged!
RachR Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 Yeah she probably did. That's how I would have taken it. You need to ask her out on a date..."Would you like to go out on a date with me?" No need for the "I'm not sure if I was clear," just ask it.
2sunny Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 Offer to make effort and take her OUT on a date that YOU plan!
Author ooglesnboogles Posted November 26, 2012 Author Posted November 26, 2012 Thanks for the help! I might see her tomorrow, hopefully there's an opportunity to ask her. I've got a great idea for a first date too. Thanks again!
Author ooglesnboogles Posted November 29, 2012 Author Posted November 29, 2012 Well, she's been pretty cold around me lately so I'm guessing I read that one wrong. Oh well. Hopefully the next one goes better =/
