So yeah this is one of those "What should I do?" kind of threads. So a week ago before winter break I ask out this girl I like. And I think she likes me. One day in class I feel someone's foot on mine. I turn to the left and it's her. She smiles at me and I smile back. Also in class she'd jokingly wave at me even though she's right next to me and she laughs at my jokes, even the ones that aren't funny. Also I'd ask help from her with a classwork assignment and she'd help. Then one of my friends would ask her and she'd say no. So like I said earlier, I asked her if we could hang out and maybe watch a movie. She tells me maybe and says she has plans with her family. And I try getting her number but she has limited texting. So I don't know what to do next? Please I need help. How should I follow up?
Do you have her number? I mean I didn't quite understand whether you git her # but she has limited texting, or she didn't give it to you because she has limited texting? If you have her number why not actually call her? It's a lot nicer than a text anyway. Just ask her if she would like to get together sometime over the Christmas break. The worst that can happen is she says no. Good luck honey!
She's either just a flirt, or she doesn't want to date yet. I'm assuming you are young, since you mentioned sitting in class with her. Just don't give up, but don't be too persistent. Just keep asking every once in a while, or ask her what she likes to do maybe? Like boys usually do that to me. "so what kind of things do you like?" "Oh you like hockey? Can I take you ice skating?" or "You like video games? I know this great arcade in the city, maybe I can take you sometime?"
Asking her out during Christmas is no good, because she probably ACTUALLY HAS PLANS WITH HER FAMILY. Y'know, BECAUSE ITS CHRISTMAS. Just make plans for afterward and see how it goes.
You guys move like turtles! He has already befriended her, as evidenced by the fun and flirting that goes on in class. She waves to him and laughs at his jokes, she is obviously at a comfortable place with him. He should call her, not text but actually call. He should ask her if she wants to get together over the holidays...push the envelope and take a risk. None of this beating around the bush crap! If she is busy, then he should follow up again once school goes back, but only follow up once and then make her make the next move. My two cents! And yes, I have asked guys out and have always been successful....usually they thrilled to be asked and generally we have a great time. People want to be accepted and liked an extending the offer of friendship is usually well recieved. I would hope all of us could read signs well enough to realise if someone is giving you the cold shoulder and would NOT be receptive to getting together.
There is only one I know of here, it's in Manhattan, in Chinatown. SMALL AS F*CK. It's like a LONG walk in closet, people playing 1 game are back to back with a person playing the game on the other side of the wall almost. But there are a lot of games, and it's always so packed.
What is GD coming to? No one has yet said it? FINE. I'll be that guy. "In the pooper you must stick it!" And arcades still exist? I haven't seen an arcade in over fifteen years!
I honestly wouldn't be too worried, she sounds interested, and newsflash, her parents most likely do have a cell phone plan that doesn't do text messages, I know because I am not paying 5 cents to send a text message and have that feature blocked on my phone. Most likely, it is Winter Break and her family has plans to head out of town and she also might have some strict parental units. Just take it slow and plan on going to a movie the first weekend of the New Year possibly in a group.
Bro, look at page 1 and search for Sky Lynx. Call her on Thursday and see what happens. What I've done in the past is make it seem like it's a group event, but then don't invite anyone else over than the girl, and spend time together.
Honestly, it sounds like she's not that interested in you, but doesn't have the nerve to say so, OR is worried she doesn't have any better options. Send her a text about hanging out (movie, mall, jugo juice, whatever's close and available in your town, but try to be specific) sometime now that christmas is over (as for a lot of people, christmas is about family family family), and if she doesn't respond or blows you off, so be it, and maybe give it a rest until school resumes. You can see where things go if you're interested in her, but if she doesn't feel the same, it's just not going to work out, in which case you're still young and there's plenty of other opportunities. I wish there was arcades, period. Dave and Busters just doesn't cut it, even with access to alcohol.
Ask her to a movie this week, it's right after Christmas she'll probably won't have anything to do (unless she's out of town). If she sounds hesitant, suggest a double date with one of your friends and hers. If she still sounds hesitant then she's probably just a flirt and not really that into you. At least you have the opinion, I'd kill for a D&B around here.
i wish there were still a arcade near me. i used to crush the competition in marvel vs capcom 2. hey ILD, i hear you play hockey and play video games... wanna join me of conquering the world ?
I know a few arcades in Central London, but I lament that the slot machines (bigger profits) are taking over. But arcades aren't a great place to take someone, they're noisy and dark. Go to a pub/bar, buy a couple of drinks and set up the pool table. Play and chat. Make her laugh. Take off your pants. Stick it in her pooper. Job done!
