Although this is a very common question my situation is just slightly different due to timing.

I went out last night for a buddies birthday. It was mostly all of the guys and a few of their girlfriends. Anyway, there was this HB 9 their that was with her friend who is the girlfriend of my friend. I have never met her but i over heard her talking about that she was from the same area i grew up in.. (we both now live in the same city in a different state) That was my chance to walk straight in due to common grounds.. We hit it off. Talked for a while, had mutual friends etc.. As she was leaving I got her number and that was that.. I woke up this morning to a new friend request on facebook, her..


I am very new to this whole getting numbers thing. I would like any advice on how to approach this situation. Now here is where my story is a bit different. With Thanksgiving being so close would a first text to her sent on thanksgiving, thanksgiving related, be kind of lame? I was thinking something cocky funny.. but not sure what..

or something facebook related? seeing that she is highly active on facebook.. Maybe something like writing on my buddies (mutual friend) wall (she was texting him last night telling him she met me) about how I met her.. (something that she would like if she read it...??

What works best for you guys in this situation?

hi man.

If she is the girlfriend of you friend, i would leave her alone. Keep it to facebookshit and so on.

If she is not, then i wouldnt try hard to think of something 'cocky funny' to say. I would call her and say to her that i want her to join me this saturday doing something you like to do.

and that is that! If she wants to, she will say yes. If she doesnt like you that much, she will say no. If she doesnt like you but thinks she will hurt your feelings, she will say maybe, but you should consider the possibility that she actuallly means no.

lots of luck!!

ciao

In the past I've been in your situation a few times. It is especially good that she friend requested you and not the other way around - clear IOI. She's clearly interested if she's talking about you to other people..

Maybe try something along the lines of "Tracked me down on Facebook aye.."

Good luck

Oh yeah she's def. into you. First thing's first you need to set the tone as to not find yourself in friendville. I would text her like 8 or 9 pm tomorrow and ask her how her thanksgiving was. After a couple of texts exchanging pleasantries say "texting sucks, I'm going to call you" If she doesn't say no in the next 2-3 minutes call her.

It's very important that while you're talking to her give her some shit and joke around with her and use not so subtle sexual undertones to ensure she knows that you're interested in her as more than a friend. Then tell her a friend gave you tickets to a basketball game or football or something and ask her to come. Sets up a date plus it's a DHV that you know people in high places. If she says yes get your ass on the phone and get those tickets.

Just what I would do...

you can give her some attention at the first,
for instant:
talk with her about your holiday plan(must be interesting),
and then ask hers.
if she is interesting in yours,
succeed has halfly been yours.
the next step will be appointment.
if you can hang her around,
you know what will do the next.
