Emissary Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Ok so I met this girl (Will call her Sally) a month ago through family/friends, She's the daughter of my Dad's co-worker/friend I really thought she was something, but I had trouble figuring out a way to contact her. Her sister (Will call her Betty) ended up helping me out last night by giving me the girl's number and telling me to text her the next day(today). So I texted her and so far so good. Keeping in mind we barely know each other, what would be an appropriate time frame to ask her out for coffee or something? I'm thinking I might just go for it later tonight. Betty was very excited when I asked about whether Sally was single or not and gave me the cell number without even being asked. I could be overly optimistic, but I met Sally at a pub while I was with my Dad and she was with Betty and their mom, it's possible Sally had later expressed to Betty some interest in me, which would explain why Betty got so excited. I mean, I've known Betty for about 12 years, but she was just a face in the hallway at high school, we didn't even know each other's names, it wouldn't make sense for her to be excited that an old friend is going to try and date her sister.
preraph Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Just ask her out right away. And if you want to or if the sister has a bf or anything, ask those two to come along.
Dork Vader Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Just ask her if she'd like to get coffee some time. There is no time table. If the woman is interested at all she will go.
Author Emissary Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 So I asked her out for coffee, an immediate yes, and she gave me a smiley face. I guess that more or less confirms it, she was into me as well. Doing drugs all of a sudden has really started to turn my life around. 2

Author Emissary Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 what????.........i liked your post and then i read your last sentence.....please explain....deb I started smoking marijuana last week, mainly because I was in the dumps over a lot of recent failed relationship start ups. I ended up getting even more depressed until I just decided while blitzed out of my mind to reach out and get her. The way her sister reacted when I asked whether the girl is single or not, it's just the perfect scenario. Then I sobered up and texted her, it went ok but she stopped responding after a while, so after like 3 hours I went and got like really super high and just went for it. And now I know, she's definitely into me, before I would have just been polite and cautiously dancing around the idea of a coffee date until the perfect time to bring it up. I'm probably going to stop smoking weed since I have a good reason to be happy while sober again. Just, people always say drugs ruin your life, but here I'm seeing some great improvements, I'm having a very positive drug experience right now. EDIT: It's actually going to be really awesome if we do start dating, we're totally welcome in each other's family home, I wouldn't end up feeling embarrassed bringing a girl home, because she's not just my girlfriend, she's a family friend.
slizl Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Let's get this straight, drugs have not turned your life around! With that being said, I smoke pot a couple of times a week in lieu of alcohol (no problem with either). Good luck with the date, and remember, when dealing with anything (especially pot), moderation is key.
mightycpa Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Times have changed. Instead of liquid courage, it now comes in the form of smoke.
d0nnivain Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I am very anti drug. I hope you are some place it's legal but make sure you find out if she's open to your habit before you get in too deep especially because you met her through your father. You wouldn't want any illegal activity coming back to have someone disparage your dad based on your actions. Lecture aside I'm glad she said yes but I was going to start by saying the fact that you have known her for a month is already 3.5 weeks too long to wait to ask for a date. Asking for something as casual as coffee should be done sooner rather than later

Asking for something as casual as coffee should be done sooner rather than later Worry not, I have no intention of continuing my habit, the moment I know when we're to meet, I will drop it. Also I reached out to find her the night we met. Just it was a month later my message was found.
