NSG! How would you ask someone out?

Aw, please don't let this devolve into a spam thread.

'Tis a little late...

Semi-serious question here.

How would you ask someone out, if you only sort of know them?

Or any other way for that matter.

I posted something similar to this on the Jolt General Forum way back when. I want to see what this generates this time. Like I said, legit answers, not-so-legit answers, and everything in between are welcome.

if you only sort of know the person, the you should try to go out with her and her friends first, and bring your friends too. So it won't be so awkward.

Entirely different group of friends, who I didn't even know before this year. Kind of awkward.

The closest thing to one of her friends I know and am somewhat comfortable around is her brother, who's a teammate of mine.

Serious advice: Don't get put into the friend zone. Ask now, with confidence.

ask her (him?) if s/he would like to hang out sometime. get to know them during that hangout. then you ask if they would like to go out on an actual date

you don't need to get to know someone that well before dating. dating is what gets you to know them before you enter into a serious relationship

Scario, knock it off with the spam!

"Hey, I have some tickets to the hockey game Friday. You want to come?"
"Want to go grab some coffee later tonight?"
"You're cute...let's boink."

I like the hierarchy of effort, there. Because s/he's just not always worth wasting good tickets on.

You can tell them: Hey baby, how 'bout we knock boots?

Talk to her one day, one day don't. Wait a while, if she doesn't come up to you within 3 to 5 days then she is not interested, TG me if you want to learn more.

this is not true at all. she might just be shy, or busy, or incredibly intimidated beyond the bounds of shyness to actually initiate anything

I would know

When I say one day, I mean pull some moves. I'm talking middle school age, so she'll talk or not talk within the week....

[Lhazastan]

"pull some moves"? are you advocating attempting to manipulate a girl into hooking up? :\

in as far as what you think a girl will or won't do ... I wouldn't count on it. and waiting awhile might be the reason she doesn't come up to you within 3 to 5 days. because she thinks you've lost interest or never had it.

Manipulation! Never! , What I mean is show her you're interested, I have a natural Charisma sometimes (around women, men usually find me stupid, or lacking in Flare as my gay friends says) I show them,and I wait for a response back, yes it sometimes can fail, but for me if I lose, then I try something else.

I'd whack her with my tree branch and drag the body back to the cave, that or Borat's Wedding Sack.

well, I guess that good for you, Casanova? :\ that won't work for everyone, for even almost anyone, and I certainly don't approve of what appears to be the scatter-gun approach that takes women for not all that valuable as unique individuals

No, I find many women attractive at a time. If they chose not to date me then I cannot like them, and I try to forget. I can be cold like that, but girls tend to pick and chose in worse ways.

Worse ways meaning: "Not East Fancainia"?

Just the part where you look us over. Although I'm sure not all of you guys just pick on looks,or style, It's almost degrading sometimes. I mean sometimes I am just doing my best to impress you, and another guy comes up, and he is on the football team, and I have no chance. I'm sorta smacked down by a hairy jock.

Then you should try courting intellectual women. Or you could just work out.

Yes, but the jocks get them too. You most likely have never been to my school. I tend to be the guy who people regard as "The Hitler of Speeches",and "Mr. Politics" So,I'm regarded as Charismatic, and a freak when it comes to politics. Although one of my friends calls me "Mousse"

and how is that different from what men do to women? and have done for thousands of years?

but ignoring that, seeing as we're the ones making the decisions based on our own preferences, and we are intelligent and willful people, maybe you actually weren't impressive and this "hairy jock" is? stereotypes are bad: he may well be smarter, funnier, and an overall nicer guy. and you're clearly going for the wrong kind of girl; maybe you yourself are setting your sights in a manner degrading to women.

Then set your sights for women a little lower. It sounds like you're looking for women more attractive than you are.

Or hit the fucking gym. Or join the military. Or style-up: http://www.magnificentbastard.com/

Or he just looks like a million bucks. It seems presumptuous to expect women to not be attracted to a fucking handsome guy.

I'm not assuming they won't be, or expecting they won't be. sorry for misspeaking and misrepresenting what I was saying. he could very well just be fucking hot as all get out
