Women really like guy's that can make them laugh & smile.


Print this out,write on the back what you want to ask here and hand it to her,saying: "this is for you".
Provide all the info you can.

Edit: I see you replied with what to write.
Sounds good to me.
Just be yourself !


If she asks if you made it, answer : the person who made this, well his middle name is Robert.

Don't nuke it so much, Dude! If you are unsure of the card thing, then just call her office later and tell her you were a little shy about approaching her at the front desk, but would like to ... (fill in the blank- coffee, movie, dinner, etc). And always remember that most women are flattered by your request and even if they say no thanks, aren't going to blow you out of the water. You'll be fine, and believe me, your heart is going to stay INSIDE your chest!

Good luck,
STU

Helps if you share common interest. Schedule an appointment. Show up 45 minutes early for the appointment bring 2 cups of coffee offer her or the chiropractor if shes not there -- tell her the coffees really for the "doc" but she's prettier or some corny line like that and give her a coffee shoot the breeze and ask what her plans for the summer are.
At the end if you're interested ask her if she wants to do something. (If your first date goes stale you at least have the "doc" to talk about).I use to drag my summer dates flyfishing,4 wheeling,mountain biking, sailing, hiking with the dog ,camping,etc....good times.

My .02: Call her or ask her when you see her. Either works. The coffee suggestion is great. She doesn't have to commit lots of time, it's public, & there is no expectation of afterwards.

If coffee or lunch goes well, make another date, semi-public like going for a hike or maybe the movie and dinner thing.

Hey, girls have tough times with all this too. Make it easy for her. Don't startle or creep her out---the running-into thing has got to make sense.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That card is going to make for one lonely Saturday night!!!

You gotta talk. No notes, cards, gifts, whatever... this isn't grade school!!

Seriously though, you gotta do whatever works for you. I'm just trying to pump up my post count and start arguments. Kidding!! Man you can cut the tension with a knife on this site!

We need all the female members to step in and help this guy out. Me, I would just walk in and ask her out, its worked for me before...but then again I've had some bad crash and burns with that strategy too (prolly more related to me than the strategy itself though). I guess I'm just trying to say "you only live once" so you have to go after what you want rarher than miss your chance. If is does not work out, sure it sucks, but pride and ego grow back. If it does work out, you're golden!

dzervit, I'll work on jacking up my post count too then we can have a massive flame war, it will be fun and I'm sure everyone here is going through withdrawl.

i've been thinking about this alot... as i just got out of work, and there is not much else to do at work. anyway i decided im just going to go in and ask her out. i've crashed and burned twice doing this... both fricken times the girl said yes then when i called her it was a "well see... (fill in the blank)" when i was at work i came up with 4 possible lines to use. but i only like two of them. i'll put up the best one, and btw im open to suggestions.

this is the line.
i was wondering if you would like to join me on a dinner date? it would be with a few of my friends and their girlfriends. then afterwards if you want we could catch a movie. all my treat!

so what do you guys think? its the best i can come up with LOL. hell like fatman said, you only live once! so what the hell. nothing can be worse than the first time. the only thing now is, i dont really want to just walk into the office there. but i guess i could set up an appointment. and who cares what other people think of me. screw them all if they dont like me. ok now i have the confidence. now i just have to wait untill i can get over there.

Well plan on this, when you get right there in front of her what you planned on saying will probably be the last thing that will come out of your mouth, actually you will get the same point out but it will be worded differently, plus you two will probably hit it off, thats how it works in my cases, its just the after effect that they change their mind, but then again be persistant but not annoying

Million's got the right idea about scheduling an appointment, it gets you in front of her with a reason and not some recon mission. If she's not there then try again!

I think the card thing is corny, I'd go with mentioning you'd like to get coffee sometime...

She'll either say yes or no. Very simple.

Try not to work yourself into a frenzy bro!

I agree with thunderguns71. Usually when you try to think of something to say, and the event happens, you completely forget what you wanted to say. (that or it comes out wrong) Happened to me MANY times Things are different when your actually in front of the girl and talking to them. I'm probably the last person you'd want to take advice from, but my advice to you is this: be calm, and be yourself. If you want to ask her verbally, then go for it. If you want to type it in a note, go for it. Like someone else here said, life is too short (and I'm only 18, I feel like I'm 34 lol). Like I said before, I'm not a pro, especially at this sort of thing, but be yourself, and you'll be satisfied with the outcome.
Oh ya, and if she likes Ford's, all the better
Let us know how you did

The first thing to remember is that there are 150,000,000 more like here in North America and no matter how corny or dumb you think you may have acted she can't possibly tell all of them so if she turns you down just go to the supermarket and ask out a cashier and keep going until you suceed. It gets easier the more you do it and you will figure out what works and what doesn't. Using the words 'beautiful' and 'you're' in the same sentence will definitely help and paying with 50.00's raises a girls pulse. The second thing to remember is that even the worst line will succeed a certain percentage of the time so it's only a matter of time. Third, always remember to smile when you walk into a room or make eye contact with someone you like.
