How do you ask a woman out on a date?

[crash_davis]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
And honestly, if you already have a 'friendship' with this woman, she's more than likely already decided on whether or not you are date material - Just my opinion.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

in a thread full of truths, this is spot on. you are the mayor of friendsville. doing more stalk her into submission will get you booted out of friendsville and your job for harassment.

I've stayed off this thread but I really have to chime in as a woman here. Do NOT continue to ask her out. Her non response is your response. Don't put her in a spot where she has to turn you down in person. She didn't respond because she doesn't want to date you but she wants to keep your relationship the way it is. Yes you're in the friend zone. Your chances of moving from friend to more than friends is better if you haven't pushed her away by constantly asking her out. Just continue the relationship the way it was. And UTGAL is right I have NEVER gone out with anyone who continually asked me out.

Well, since this thread apparently will never die ...

Yes, I know ... I've done what I can do ... and I'm not going to ask her out again as I said earlier.

We'll continue to have a work relationship and she'll be a great reference for me for future jobs.

Yeesh.

It's almost 10 a.m.

Hey, you tried. You asked her out, which is what you set out to do. If her non-response is a "no," then you know where you stand with her, and you move on. No biggie. That's life.

Now I suggest you take your own advice from page 2 to get this woman out of your mind:

you know what sucks about chicks... out of the hundreds and hundreds of reasons...

you have some girls that love the game.. loved to be chased. they want a man to try real hard.

then you've got chicks who get the point. you like them. but they're not interested.

then you've got the guy who can't figure out which kind of girl she is. so if you think she knows and isn't interested you stop. then you find out later down the road she wanted you to come get her. or.... you go after her thinking she likes the game, but she was the one who got the point and isn't interested but you persist. then she files a harassment claim.



the answer... i pretty much make it clear to any chick i just don't play games. i'll ask a girl out once. if she gives me, i can't now, but next time.. then i'll ask again. if she just leaves me hanging at i've already got plans but doesn't offer for me to offer her again.. i'm done.

Let me put it this way for those who don't seem to be understanding ...

I'm not going to ask her out again any time soon, but I'm going to keep my options open.

It took me many, many months to get my ex-wife to marry me. After that, it probably took me about 6 months before I was able to get into my next dating relationship that lasted about 6 years.

This is just a bump in the road.

We'll see. I've given up for now.

Anyway, the thread has been fun. Peace out.

I will not let this thread die.

leave the poor guy alone.

po1d, i'm proud of you. not only did you nut up and asked her out, you were a very good sport in taking the jibes and jokes on this thread.

and stop bearing your soul to us. honesty will only get you more ridicule.

 

[UTGal]

I want to know how long it took for you to agree to the divorce....

Ok, I'll keep playing.

I just wasted half my morning clinic reading this abortion of a thread!! Good god, man, you would work 15 hour days and then play golf till 10 pm? And do endurance biking? Do you think that might have affected either your marriage or your other long-term relationship?

I've been with my wife for 14 years, so I'm a little rusty on asking women out, but I have friends who are "back in the game" for whatever reason, and they have similar problems. I think with your unique set of, um, skills and interests, you would be perfect for one of those internet match services. You could get through most of the ******** that way, and find someone likeminded, looking to get serious. Although you really ought to try having some fun for awhile. Take the pressure off yourself to find your next soulmate. Going out and having fun with several women doesn't have to involve meaningless sexual encounters, which sounds like something you want to avoid.

I'd hire you. And if I played more, I'd enjoy playing golf with you. But there's no way I'd ever go on a date with you, no matter how many times you asked me, or what you can do with a 3 iron.

 

[El Cid Vicious]

Punt, you've earned my respect. You were man enough to make the effort, then you had to endure the indignity of getting shot down in front of the entire Hornfans community.

One more question before this thread sinks down to page 2 - So how can you play golf until 10PM? Do you mean hitting on a driving range? A lighted putting green or Putt-Putt course? Alaska?

 

[ERhine]

This thread just keeps getting better.

 

[Pancho Negro]

if by better you mean how the lives of the indians got better once the white man showed up, then yes, yes it is.

I'm thinking he just liked some chick that lived on the 6th hole.

Ok, here's another fortune cookie story since we're just ******* around ...

One day a woman brought in some red Valentine's Day fortune cookies and was handing them out.

Everybody's said love this, love that, or whatever.

Well, my cookie didn't have a fortune inside of it. That was also near the time of my previous fortune cookie episode.

Wasn't a good sign.
