max3732 Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 I mentioned asking out to play here and she said yes and I got her # http://www.loveshack.org/forums/romantic/dating/636979-asking-someone-out-tennis She told me she'd prefer to play early in the morning or the evening and says she doesn't like the heat. Last time I met a someone I liked for tennis we played at like 10:30 and walked over to lunch after. The place isn't open for breakfast and the dinner is more formal so unless I ask her to bring a change of clothes for dinner and we both take a shower at the tennis courts that's not going to work. Aside from the actual tennis, which is going to be challenging for me since she'll be spraying balls everywhere and I'm going to try and hit right to her, what can I do to try and create attraction and this up as a date and try to get another one? As much as I like tennis I have to remind myself my primary goal is to try and see if I like her as a girlfriend. All I really know about her is she's pretty and plays tennis. Our conversations have mainly just been pleasantries as we're waiting for our lesson. 2
d0nnivain Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Do they have picnic tables? Can you pack a small cooler with refreshments & offer her a little picnic after your early morning tennis? . . . I'm thinking muffins, bagels, fresh fruit, water & juice & maybe a thermos of coffee. If you think she'd be into it, bring a split of champagne (the little bottle) for mimosas 1
Art_Critic Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 As you already mentioned hitting them right to her, I'm not saying you can but don't whoop her butt.. ever in any sport of a girl you are trying to date/get in her panties. You can't exactly let her win either as you don't want to let her see you as a loser and don't get caught doing it... She is already attracted to you so you don't need to create any more attraction, other than look good at your sport, dress nice and all should be okay. As far as food goes, next time you talk to her to set the exact time mention to her about getting something after the match and go from there.
Cobra_X Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Aside from the actual tennis, which is going to be challenging for me since she'll be spraying balls everywhere and I'm going to try and hit right to her, what can I do to try and create attraction and this up as a date and try to get another one? As much as I like tennis I have to remind myself my primary goal is to try and see if I like her as a girlfriend. All I really know about her is she's pretty and plays tennis. Our conversations have mainly just been pleasantries as we're waiting for our lesson. I've done tennis dates before. The best is to either correct her form or if her form is good, show her a different way. I played a girl that was quite good but did her backhand with both hands, I showed her how to use just one. Keep in mind that the point is to touch. Make it instructive at first and playful later. Do not be lewd! 3
Versacehottie Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Take breaks seriously go to the bench and take breaks more often than normal. She can't play without you so she will come over too and flirt then....but BTW you should be flirting while you are playing as well. Challenge her, make bets, compliment her a little, show off a little (not a lot), inspire her and talk to her a lot. You can talk over the net while playing or at least warming up. You can ask her: so what else do you like to do besides play tennis in a playful way, about her weekend or plans that night or how she got into tennis. I think you guys should go for something low-key but continue the "date" such as a smoothie or some other healthy or good food. Anyway that doesn't really matter just keep it going for some time afterward, coffee, a drink, a bakery, etc. good luck and um she said yes, good sign! 1
GemmaUK Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 I would go for the early evening option. Surely you don't have to eat at the tennis club and you could find somewhere more casual nearby? She may well wear other than tennis gear on the way anyway so she can change into that. Does she know this is a date and does she know you're going for food after and that this is not just tennis practice for her as a newbie to it?
