doofus93 Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Hi fellow peeps, I found this cute foreign exchange student which is on a 1 year exchange in my school. Finally, I managed to have a conversation with her and it was probably the highlight of my week blush Well this is because I could never overcome my fear of starting a conversation with a stranger and her being a foreign student didn't help ( I like foreign students which made me even more shy). Our conversation was great (or rather that's how i felt). We made small talk and had a few laughs and she was showing me this music site she was listening to and introduced me to it. However, I had classes and had to go. I told her that I hope I can see more of her and left. My only regret was not asking her for any sort of contact from her frowning . About a day or two later, I found her Facebook and messaged Hi to her. She replied and asked me how I was doing. I replied but after that she hasn't since. For now, I'm assuming she doesn't have WIFI unless she goes near campus, but what if I was wrong and she isn't really interested or anything..which leads me to some pointers: 1) Will she have an intention to date a local, considering she'll only be around for a year? 2) She mentioned she has friends to do stuff with, probably foreign students from her university too, and I would think that it'd be weird if she hung out with me. I dunno why I think that way. Man..I'd really wanna see her again and ask for her number but I haven't seen her around since we talked. And the fact that campus is huge doesn't make it any easier to see her again. P.S. Do you guys think maybe I should send her another message? What can I do? :sad:
highseas Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 While the memory of the presumably nice talk is still fresh, send her another message to say you had a great time talking with her and would like to invite her out for coffee or something, and ask her for her number. If she doesn't respond to that, then at least you know her state of mind and won't second-guess yourself. I know you're shy, but (1) if she doesn't respond, you likely won't bump into her again and things won't be that awkward, and (2) if she does like going out with you, you win. Not much to lose.
PogoStick Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 You should totally go for it. She came because she's excited to experience some adventure, a new culture. That surely could include dating a local. Just ask her out for real. As a local you should be able to think of something interesting to show her.
Maggie4 Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Ask her if she has been to or seen this or that local attraction (also explain what it is and why it's interesting), and say if you haven't been there, I'd be happy to take you. Offer 2 or 3 options, and if she wants to bring a girlfriend, that should be ok with you for now.
scooby-philly Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Yes - Contact her, tell her how you felt, and offer a unique experience. Just keep things light and your feeling in check - she's a foreigner so don't over expect.
