Good GOD man! ask her already!


This is one funny thread but there are times when a man must be bold!


And for some good advice for everyone... go to google and type "David De'Angelo"

Beware the friend trap. Make sure you make your intentions clear EARLY to avoid this problem and it's associated awkwardness afterwards (if you still like her).

Some advice...

GIRLS LOVE TO BE ASKED QUESTIONS. Chat a girl up, listen to her life problems and stories, actually listen, and respond with appropriate questions that will keep her talking. Girls love it when guys listen, and the instant sign of success is if she asks you questions back, in an interested manner. You could be the most gawd-awful, gargoyle-looking Quasimodo, but as long as you can listen, girls will enjoy your company. Just don't say anything stupid, and you're in the zone.

This may take a couple of hours, but stick it out and you'll succeed....I'm 3 for 3 since 2001 when on a serious date!

It's not as hard as you might think...

Ask her if she has small hands. When she asks why, tell her you like girls with small hands because it makes your peen look bigger.

At least you'll find out if she has a sense of humour!

Wait until she's off work at night then jump out of the shadows and ask her if she wants to go to the disco. . . . .

. . . . . okay, maybe my dating experience is a little dated.

Or, this has worked in a small prairie town since the 1930's . . . . soup up your car, turn up the stereo with the window down, drive slowly by her when she's walking down the street and rev the engine while leering at her . . . . . ask a woman why they fall for that one.

After commenting on the "beelzabub" thing, I haven't read through any of the comments. So I'll give my advice, which probably might not help lol.

I normally just ask if a girl would like to go "hang out" sometime. Something like coffee or lunch. If you already know her and can chat with her, it's easy. Just chat about something you two have in common, and then ask if she'd like to hang out for coffee sometime.

Best thing to do is to ask her out for coffee. This is a very good thing because it is more informal, casual if you will. Asking her out for coffee also allows for you two to just talk. You can't do this if you take her to the movies or the Flames game. I would reserve movies/game for second or third dates. When you're talking with her at the coffee shop, this allows you to get to know her. It also helps for second or third dates, since on your first date you would have gotten to know the things she likes and dislikes.

Just remember to be confident, funny, and just a little bit flirty (remember, just a bit!). It's not a mistake those 3 things are written in that order.

Remember, if she is pretty (or very pretty), don't go praising her endlessly, she's heard it all. I would sometimes jokingly point out a flaw of a girl, like "hmm...so you're into <insert something weird> eh? I can't associate with you anymore."

If you're wondering about my success rate, let's just say I haven't been turned down yet (friend or stranger). I'm not a good looking guy either, just ask captaincrunch lol.

Well, again, all good advice for readers of the thread. Although, I'm not really in need of all that. Although it is appreciated. I've got everything under control, it was just a question as to whether or not at work.

Which I had little option anyway

Oh, I get it. You wanted to know if it was appropriate to ask her out when SHE was at work (I'd better brush up the reading comprehension).

My g/f works retail and gets asked out all the time. Granted, she's never said yes (to the best of my knowledge) but it happens a lot. If she's a lifeguard she'll probably welcome the opportunity to chat with someone, seeing as all I ever see them do is sit around and yak to their co-workers all day anyways.

Some of the crap the d-bags around my girlfriend used to pull included:
-bringing her coffee
-sending her flowers
-bringing her chocolates
-asking her out for coffee/lunch/dinner
-offering her narcotics (why this one doesn't work I have no idea...nothing like "smokin a joint" on your first date)
-sending b-day cards and such
-one particular bike courier used to follow her around the city every once in a while. She'd try to ignore him but the pesky little feller was quite persistent, and would ride up to her side window and bang on it to get her attention.

I however don't endorse any of these. The element of surprise always worked best for me. If you decleare your intentions a day or two before you ask her out, she has enought ime to prepare an excuse not to do it. Hit her up outta the blue, and 9 times out of ten the answer is yes.

I'd reccommend breaking out a new speedo the day you plan on asking her.

I vote for asking her after she gets off work.
If you're worried that she'll be leaving with friends and it'll be akward, you can always take a page from Dane Cook's book and ask her, "Hey, are you going to be walking to your car alone later on?".

Then you'll know if it's safe to wait for her after work.

Get the one they had on the apprentice. That way you can always be "the gay friend" if she says no.

I say ask her out while at work. You see her only what once a week twice MAYBE. When the hell else are you going to do it? To me the waiting for her to get off work seems kind of creepy but who knows, she might find it "special" that you took time out of your schedule to come ask her out.

Funny you should mention asking women out at the gym because I was just reading an article the other day at the gym about this very topic. Apparantly it's the best place to do it because it's so easy to strike up a conversation or making an introduction (asking for a spot, etc.) plus you know that you share the same interests. The do warn about asking women out who go to the gym with as much make-up on as if they were going to the bar and are afraid to sweat (what the hell are you going to the gym for anyhow?)

And if she doesn't show up at least you can still go to a Jr. High with the gimp mask on and scar some kids.

I don't think he can; not while his court order is still in effect.
