So I'm asking out one of my closest friends tomorrow. I'm super worked up about it. My main goal is just to have her not hate me at the end of it. I dread doing it, but if you're not honest with your circle of friends, who can you be honest with, am I right? Goodness, my stomach is churning like crazy. Talk me up, guys. ...oh, and if you don't hear from me tomorrow, I've either chickened out or fallen into a deep depression. Most likely the former.
It's always scary to possibly mess up a good friendship but if a long term relationship isn't built out of friendship then what? So you might as well take a risk.
I don't think it'll ruin our friendship, regardless of the outcome. At least I hope not. We've been friends for a pretty long time, and she's probably the most reasonable chick I know. Still nervous as heck though.
where do u plan on taking her that youre so nervous about? is it just a casual date? like going out to eat or what?
why do you have to announce it and make it a big deal? why not just express it in a non overt way and see how she responds. Pulling her aside or professing your love might be a bit overkill.The way you are saying it, it seems like some kind of weird reveal that puts her on the spot. You need to elaborate in what is your plan here.
THIS Dont creep her out dude. Just go out have fun, dont go overboard getting on your knees and professing your love and infatuation towards her. Poke fun at her, hang out like friends but flirt of course.
If there's a little line I've taken from Dazed and Confused, it's "show it to her" That is my advice my friend.
I'm not trying to make a huge deal of it. Just going out for coffee and try to find an opportunity to talk about it. I don't like playing games when it comes to relationships. The only way I know how to do it is find a reasonably appropriate time to say "Hey, I like you. Wanna go out?" Hopefully worded better than that though. There's a decent chance the feeling is reciprocal. She's never had a bf before, so I dunno how she acts around people she's interested in. Guess I'll find out tomorrow.
How old is she? Just ask her if she'd consider going out on a date with you. That's all you really need to know now. If she says no or gets creeped out, then it's over. If she says yes, then at least you know there's some interest on her part and go from there.
