mrldii: I have learned that a lot of girls don't like confrontation. They will go whatever is the easier route. So, if a guy asks for a number they will give it and then either avoid text messages or just say "Sorry, I am busy" instead of saying "actually, I am not interested" or whatever.

 

 

Personally, to OP, I wouldn't go out of your way to talk to this girl unless there is mutual attempts at conversation from her side. The worse thing you can be is to hang around her and try to be her "friend" in hopes of dating her in the future.

Well, I asked her and she turned me down I guess. Her reply was: "Well, I'm kinda busy so it's going to be hard to meet up." So, I'll take that as a no.

 

But if actually feels pretty good that I put myself out of my comfort zone and asked her anyway. And guess what? I'm still standing haha!

 

Good for you, bro!

Could not find a thread that will help me, or others, with this issue. If there is, I'm sorry haha.

 

I got dumped by my ex gf a few months ago and I am feeling ready to enter the dating game again. I had some serious self esteem issues due to our break up, but I have successfully battled most of these problems. The last step for me is to work on the flirting and dating itself. I am quite shy so slowly pushing myself out of my comfort zone is tough work. But I am trying as hard as I can and although progress is slow I am clearly making the progress I want.

 

So, I met this girl at a festival. We did not talk that much, but since we have mutual friends I added her on Facebook the following day and we started small talk. This went on and off for a couple of days, with me trying to make some innocent and flirty comments. Eventually, I asked her for her number and she gave it to me. Hurray for me!

 

We started texting that same day. Made some funny comments et cetera. But now it's time to ask her out. I guess I am, and maybe some other people out here too, looking for some motivational speeches of you guys. Since we have mutual friends, my biggest fear is that other friends will make fun of me when I get rejected. I do think she is interested, I could tell by the smiles she gave me at the festival and if she would not be interested why would she give me her number?

 

Hate to tell you but if your friends are gonna break your balls over something like this they aren't friends. Just ask her out. Be confident, be charming. If she says she's not interested then be cool about it. Don't be afraid to ask.
