Speaking of good first date / meet up ideas, I recently chose to meet a girl for trivia night at a bar. We played skee ball, ate pizza and wings, and of course played trivia. I have to say, it turned out to be an excellent scenario - very laid back, but with enough going on to stimulate conversation and keep it flowing naturally, yet not too loud to hear each other clearly. Plus, there's plenty of alcohol if either of you requires some social lubrication. Disclaimer: Obviously it's a good idea to gauge the girl's intelligence and make sure she's the trivia type in the first place.
just call her if you really like her and want to get together, quit over thinking it. tell her you had a good time talking with her and look forward to seeing her again when she is available.
Tell her you haven't had a date in eight years and, while coffee was fun, you'd like to marry her as soon as possible to alleviate any awkwardness. Chicks like a guy who's not afraid of commitment.
On a serious note, your next meet up should be at happy hour. It'll kill any awkward pauses, etc. if yall are a little buzzed. Will definitely help you loosen up too.
Take her out to dinner. Have nice, pleasant conversation. Then after she really is in to you just say: "Look I'll be honest. I just want to **** the **** out of you." Then if the getting is good you could consider dating her long-term.
She gave you the number, so I doubt she ISN'T interested in you. You also have reiteration from your friend on that point. Now that all that is clear, there is no sure rule or law about when you can or can't call a girl after she gives you her number. As someone pointed out, calling her right away would be showing desperation but, nowadays and in the times of Texting, FaceBooks, MySpaces, and... 4Chans... those rules are out. Don't seem too desperate, and don't seem too disinterested. Treat her with respect and show her what a gentleman you can be, foremost. Just ask when she would be free next time, and that should give you a hint. She may even say "TOMORROW?" and you're home free. WARNING: I did this one time and one time only... and now I'm married. But... it's not like I want you to come back to this thread in 10 years to let me know that happened to you, too. LOL! I tried opening the second page of this thread to specifically post "when you gon' let me tap that?", but coffee man had done it already. :grin:
I'd obsess over the timing a little bit more. It's really important that you catch her at a time when she's doing absolutely nothing, because if you call her when she's busy shopping or something, she'll most likely think you're a jerk and never want to talk to you again. Take your time. These things take weeks, even months, of planning. Make sure you get a hold of her Facebook too, so you can stalk her and gather all the necessary info. If you see any recent pictures of her and another guy, he's probably her new lover, and you have no chance. Good luck, and God help you.
Tell her, "it's summer time, people suppose...." If she finishes the rest off, you guys will be perfect for each other.
it shouldnt matter if she has plans or not....you can always schedule something for next week....that's better than waiting and calling her, only to find out she already scheduled something else for next week. Also....maybe you should forget about starting with a typical weekend date. Just call her and ask if she'd like to get together for lunch sometime this week. It'll be different with only you two there and there's 5 days to choose from instead of 1 or two. Use that lunch to set up a weekend date.
oh, i thought i read you met her and your friend for coffee....but looks like it was just you two? I'd still go for lunch this week though. If she likes you then she'll be glad to see you twice in a week.
This man knows what he's talking about. I'd also suggest to create a fake-account to hit on her and see if she's one of those cheap girls that sleeps with every guy. Maybe a 2nd fake-account where you pretend to be a girl to see if she's bisexual? This could lead to awesome threesomes.
Some really great advice in this thread. After you do see her next, send her a text when you get home (or between 15 and 45 minutes off saying your goodbyes if it doesn't end up at either residence or motel room). The content of the text message should just be saying something simple and brief like "Just wanted to thank you for an enjoyable evening. Really had a nice time!" Just like that. Guarantee her response will be something like "no thank you!!" etc. Then it's up to you to follow up and pursue further if you decide you want to. At that point: mustache ride.
Everyone pretty much covered everything you need to do to get the ball rolling... ... But here's a friendly reminder to wash your junk off in the sink after you guys do it.
text her "hey, so where are you taking me for our date?" then with that said, youll have a convo going. if you want you can keep flipping the script on her, telling her "oh i miss you too, i guess"..just make her laugh..this will give you the opportunity to bring up where to take her, and it will be comfortable doing so.
