so there's this girl…

ha thank god im not as bad as that jeff guy but I am pretty pathetic. Well I still havn’t asked her out(lets face it, that wasn’t going to happen anytime soon) but I have actively tried to say at least something to her everytime I see her,tried to plant a seed or something,god knows if its working. Please tell me there is someone equally as pathethic on here as me when it comes to relationships

Oh FFS, just ask her!!

Please tell me there is someone equally as pathethic on here as me when it comes to relationships

took me ohhh weeeks and weeeeks of cold showers LOL, then I just went for it!!

I’m sayin nuffink.

You’ve done very well if you’ve managed to plant your seed without even having to speak to her 😉

Excellent double entendre work there wrightyson 🙂

god knows if its working

The second coming?

No, don’t just ask her yet, a) you will freak her out and b) you will make it very clear that it is not her personality that has drawn you to her, which makes you shallow. At least pretend you like her as a person…

Patience young man – the long game is always more rewarding.

well hels that was my thinking, I’ll look like a stalker if i just asked her out after never really having a proper conversation with her. Wrightyson i was just waiting on someone picking up on that,oh so predictable 😉 I’m not going to lie,its bloody hard,,HAVING A CONVERSATION I MEAN HA

Took me just over 2 years to ask Mrs B out on a date. Don’t wait that long!

Please tell me there is someone equally as pathethic on here as me when it comes to relationships

No there isn’t. It’s just you.

Well let’s hope she never sees this thread then. At least not until you’ve been married a few years anyway. 😉

Can’t be bothered to read the whole thread. Has the OP manned up and banged her back doors in yet?

I have actively tried to say at least something to her everytime I see her,tried to plant a seed or something,god knows if its working.

This could work.

Many years ago I attempted the ‘make her like my personality and show that I’m interested in hers’ strategy with a lovely lass from Leeds I worked with.

I did make her laugh a few times and we kind of became friends – but, for me, it became harder and harder to say ‘enough of this small talk, let’s date, sweet-cheeks’.

Never did manage to say it. Then met someone else and hooked up in about 20 minutes.

No, don’t just ask her yet

Find some flimsy pretext to talk to her instead, even if it’s just to compliment her on her clothes/hair/whatever (not breasts).

Offer her some tea or cake or something. Try to get to know her a bit before you start getting all romantic.

Girls don’t like desperation.

Bump into her accidentally and spill a drink down her front… awkardly dab at her chest with a handkerchief whilst appologising a thousand times repeatedly saying F*** in a posh English accent.

Doesn’t that only work if you’re at a society wedding yeti?

I dunno, it’s got to be worth a try. Personally I can’t see how she’d be able to resist such foppish charm.

Just give up and watch porn.

Okay, okay, I’m on form today so accepting that you might not exude the sophistication of a blue blooded English gent, I have another idea to share with you…

Have you considered beoming the Primeminister and then employing her as a housemaid/PA at number 10? After many months of frustrated glances and sticky situations you will ultimately get together… fate if you will…

“Hi hows it going, thank god its Friday.”

Followed by “got anything fun planned for the weekend ?”

Listen to her, she may then say yes I am going to the pictures/drink with my boyfriend etc

Or she may tell you about the things she likes doing at the weekend which will give you something to talk about next week.

Tbh, if you’ve not asked her yet i don’t think you’ve got the balls for a relationship anyway, grt ready for a life living with ur parents instead. I actually feel sorry for this girl now

I’ve got another idea, well two actually… Firstly I was going to suggest going up to her and trying to recite the Lyrics to “I think you’re amazing” by Bruno Mars… no lady would be able to resist the line about seeing her face. Whilst searching for it though I found this…

Perfect!

If it’s musical ideas you want, try this… It might not be safe for work…

I think Yeti is on to something. Have you considered opening a book shop in West London?

😆

Yeti, Im sure I’ve seen that Prime minister one before…. 😆

Or is she foreign? you could declare undying luv in badly phrased Portugese?

Luv that bit *sighs*

Edit
Mind you, I wouldn’t be messing around with bits of cardboard with Keira 😉

op you are Chris DeBurgh I claim my £5

emsz – you know what, proper guilty pleasure, but I love that film actually.

Seriously.

Oh, so do I!!!

’bout the only film I’ll actually stay awake through

so luvely.

Like it myself, but it’s no Point Break.

Maybe the OP should pretend to be a really bad surfer. It worked for Keanu.

Brycerw take a lesson from darcy!

if some-one would set this this up for me, I’d be everso everso grateful.

emsz – I’ve learnt everything I need to know about romance from Hugh Grant. When it comes to loving he’s simply divine.

Ahhh – Point Break, absolutely one of the greatest films ever made. I was almost in tears until I realised Gary Busey hadn’t really lost his dog. Acting at it’s finest and made even better with Ms Lori Petty.

Ahhh – Point Break, absolutely one of the greatest films ever made.

It’s the movie that has everything, even Anthony Kiedis from the Chilli Peppers and wondrous lines of dialogue like “That’s, ahh… that’s a surfboard all right! Looks like a ’57 Chevy I used to have” and ” Listen you snot-nose little shit, I was takin’ shrapnel in Khe Sanh when you were crappin’ in your hands and rubbin’ it on your face.”

Unbeatable.

You obviously haven’t watched Con-Air!

Jesus lad grow a pair. Go and find her and put it to her, worst she can do is say no.

Confidence is an attractive quality.

I see you around a fair bit but don’t get the chance to speak to you, I’d like to take you out this weekend, what are the chances? Simple eh?

Brycerw take a lesson from darcy!

Exactly! All you need are some tight riding breaches, A ****ing huge stately home with a lake in front of it, to emerge smoldering from, and some household staff to bark orders at.

Actually, and rather worryingly, while taking the piss, I’ve pretty much described my other half’s dream scenario 🙁

+1 Joolsburger

Worst case scenario is she screams, runs away and calls the Police, and you get escorted from the building carrying one of those cardboard boxes made for such events, with just a stapler and that sad looking spider plant you have been keeping on the edge of death for the last 3 years that was perched on the edge of your desk. You spend the rest of your life wondering how you ended up working in a leisure center as a receptionist, never being quite able to adequately explain away the sexual harassment case brought against you to all of your failed attempts to pull yourself back onto the corporate career path you had thrown away. The last twisted irony being that this apparent goddess has a Spin class every Tuesday evening in the very same leisure center for the next twenty years and never makes eye contact or even says hello, and you eventually retire alone, miserable and muttering about how you rued the day you ever logged on to Singletrack.

AndyRT – We like films with happy endings! Can’t you add a bit how he gets together with the cleaning ‘thing’ who is responsible for mopping the sweat from the studio floor? Not glamorous, but they love each other all the same?

I was thinking it may have been Barry the Personal Trainer. The rejection of the woman he so clearly loved was eating him up inside. The misery his life has become all the fault of here and her bloody restraining order. Are all women are the bloody same? Are they?!

He was leaving himself wide open to Barry’s advances in the shower. Flattered even….

The beauty of the ‘thing’ in my story is that we don’t know their gender until the wedding day?
