Usually it goes something like this.
"I like you."
"I like you too."
"Go out with me?"
"No."
"Oh. How about now?"
"No."
"Oh. How about now?"
"Oh okay then."
Well it's always awkward when it comes from my mouth.
Yes. It has gone well and not so well depending on the occasion in question.
Yes I have!
edit: it was terrifying
I went to my girlfriend's homecoming with her. We weren't dating officially until about halfway through when she announced we were "basically boyfriend and girlfriend now" to all of her friends.
This was, of course, surprising to me.
I HATE FORMALITIES . HATE HATE HATE
All of my hookups and girlfriends have been a straightforward affair. Even my first girlfriend. I put my arm around her one day when we were watching tv and that night we were holding hands.
Her cousin (who was a fan of our relationship unlike everybody including myself) was ecstatic. Ah, old memories.
Yeah, typically, I just act natural and if it succeeds she's cool. If not, I wouldn't find her my type anyway. It's a straightforward s-test.
I've done it a few times, and each was a varying degree of 'sux' and/or 'awkward'.
I've never asked a guy out in my life, I think. I'd have no problem doing so, but it's never come up as they've always asked me out first.
I have been asked out and never done the asking. Asking my ex to marry me was pretty anti climatic too. This is why I phail.
This is why a guy should reach down deep inside his chest, and pull out every peiece of being he has, lay it all out on table and just swing that damn club and bring her back to your cave.
Chivalry really is dead. Pimp it Flintstones style.
Asking someone to be your girlfriend or boyfriend is pretty lame. The two people should know when the relationship gets to that place.
Uh.. it started with him hinting to me that he wanted to be with me and it going over my head, then when I did get it, I rejected him because I was scarred, and then a week later and lots of alcohol later I called him crying confessing everything that was confess. We started dating exactly a year before our baby's due date (Sept. 6th).. well. technically Sept 5th at like 11pm but since I don't remember that convo because of alcohol we just call it Sept 6th. Saying the words "I love you with all my being" was really the moment of dating, there never really was "will you date me" thing.
As for marriage, we both knew that we were going to get married to each other 2 months into dating. There was no doubt in either of our minds that we wanted to be together forever, Neither of us asked each other, it was more like "When we get married.." and what not. Really, if it wasn't for procrastinating we would have been married in November before I even got pregnant but we complicated things by.. well my dad not even knowing he was living with me, and his parents under the impression he was living with a friend. > >; So when we found out that we were going to have a baby we stopped procrastinating the marriage for the sake of the baby. xD It's not that we didn't want to get married, we were both to lazy too. We lived like a married couple, it just took so much effort to get the actual married title to become true.
As for those skeptics who think that you can't know that you want to be together forever after 2 months of knowing someone. I can vouch that I knew, and my sister, who's been happily married for almost 11 years knew after 2 months. Some people just know, but then again my sister and I have epic intuition.
Well, not directly, it's always been sort of implied.
Nope... it was just kinda like "Hey, creep, your hand is on my boob" "I guess that makes you my girlfriend" and by the authority of manlaw she was mine.
it was not :exdee:
rubah you just totally ruined Hsu's chance of being thought of as the coolest guy here. Because for the seconds before your post, that's what I thought.
I think I had to ask Danielle like ten times before she finally gave in. Other girls generally are like "Yes!" on the first instance. I've done it by letter, phonecalls and in person.
No, I'm too shy. I've been asked to be someone's girlfriend once, though, and it was nice. The other time we just sort of were an item without either of us even asking. XD
I've been rejected too many times to even consider asking anyone out ever again.
I think I've done it once or twice. Mostly getting to be in a relationship just comes naturally. Formalities aren't really needed (except maybe when it comes to proposing).
For me, in most relationships I've been in, it's been kind of like that. Where it's at the point where not calling it a relationship would be a denial, but no one's really made it official yet due to shyness or being a bit unsure or whatever. With Hux and I, a lot of it was me not even being sure if I could do the distance thing before we meet up, and even after we meet up for a while, because I was thoroughly sick of it. I guess it's worked out though, because he's coming over here in less than a month, and then I'll be (if all goes as planned) over there for between a semester or a full year next year. ;o
But yeah, the point I'm trying to make is that in the relationships I've been in, I've never just been asked out of the blue, me not really even knowing them beyond one or two conversations. Only creeps with teen mustaches have done that with me.
I lol'd so hard that I almost spit water on my keyboard. xD
But yeah, like Jess, I never asked any guy to date me before. I kind of asked a guy on a date before, but he didn't seem to understand my intentions exactly, so it was super awkward.
A real man doesn't just actively seek it out, a Real man will to it to himself if he's deprived for to long.
And anyway, on topic, no. No I haven't. But just telling a girl you like her yes. And let me tell you, we guys are a lot more nervous then we appear to be.
Seriously.
Personally I think I've only been rejected once because I tend to wait until I know how they feel before I ask them to be my girlfriend. The one girl who rejected me was a girl who had liked me for some time but had gone off me by the time I picked up the guts to ask her out. Go figure.
11 years is hardly forever. I know of several marriages that have been ended at the 20 year mark.Quote:

I just hook up/sleep with them then bail. ;)
I've got high hopes for my parents dying in one another arms; they're almost up to 21 years and still seem completely in love with one another, even kissing in the kitchen, and just now my mom thanked my dad for unloading the dishwasher.
(they're so cute)
b0b, I'm sorry I had to make stu so less cool, but a girl's gotta defend herself from creeps tryin' to spout nonsense about manlaw~
he can't be a real man anyways, 'cause I can't get him to let me stick anything in his butt ;.;
You know, I've never done it. Actually, that's a lie. In one relationship I had we got off to a fantastic start and sort of assumed we were in a relationship. That I asked was a kind of formality several days later. And the other time I was asked. I've been on the verge of asking, but I'm not terribly eloquent when I'm nervous.
Just stay up for 24 hours, and drink a lot of coffie and eat lots of candy bars berfore asking.
That way you'll be so whacked out you'll haven't the common sense to feel nervous. ^_^
True, you'll lose any form of tact as well, but I think she'll get the overall message.
I never really ask, i feel to awkward. I prefer to just start hanging out with a girl at college or parties then get closer until she turns into a girlfriend:D
oh my god, I could never ask, I wait to be asked myself xD I'm way too scared of being rejected.
He didn't ask and I didn't ask, we just kind of came together, and we've been this way for...Oh, well today's the 2 year and 2 months mark :bigbiggri so yeah.
We just went along with it until one day we refered to each other as boyfriends. There was no asking involved! There was some confetti though.
The real question of this topic is who's been pumping DMKA with Valium? This topic is way too fruity to not be treated suspiciously.
So hey who wants to be my girlfriend? :confused:
Stu will, paul. You just have to promise to let him touch your bras.
Never. I usually get asked, for reasons I'll never understand.
This one time, I asked a girl out and she said yes.
What? Were you expecting more?
I don't think I ever actually asked Jesswee. I was just like "I UHM... LIKE YOU :D!" And she was like "OOO: I LIKE YOU TOO!" And so we just decided that we were going to be boyfriend and girlfriend.
<3
EDIT: I was nervous, but not like "HOMG SHE'S NEVER GONNA TALK TO ME AGAIN DDDX" nervous.
XD
I've never asked a guy out, but I've also never been asked out so it's sorta balanced.
In my current relationship I asked her to be my girlfriend but only because my previous relationship crashed and burned cause my ex and I were obviously not on the same page especially when she started telling me about her other dates...
As for my girlfriend and I it took awhile for us both to fess up to our feelings. We both have some scars but eventually we came to our senses and have been dating for almost a year now. :love:
well now we know where kari buys her brassieres!
:aimblush:
Walmart? =0
I've always been asked. :3
Agreed. I knew sooner to be honest, but I figured it best to give it a while to see if the feelings changed. Turns out I just kept loving her more as time went by so I proposed with a twist-tie ring back in October. I wasn't scared at all because I knew she would say yes. I was just anxious to hear the words.
As for asking her out originally, well, she asked me out to be honest (a very short time before I was going to ask her out oddly enough).
Yeah, the word No really put a damper on this.
I leave it to when i'm drunk, everything goes along much more smoothly.
I asked a girl out once, she said yes. (Mainly becuase I am pretty awesome)
I have been asked out by a few girls before, I said no.
I asked a girl to be mine, three years ago. And I asked another one to be mine last summer. They both said yes. They both cheated on me. I think asking might be a bit overrated now. I doubt I'll be asking anymore. I figure if its going to happen, it'll happen naturally and shouldn't have to be asked. It just is
I dont think ive ever asked anyone out. My relationships all just sorta happened, moslty. Sometimes they DIDNT happen.
Sometimes people get into situations where each person is unsure where they are standing in the relationship and its at this point that a simple "Be my GF/BF? LOLZ" will do the trick, unless she says "I thought we already WERE!!!! OMG you are so insensitive!"
I'm to much of a pansy to ask a girl out D:
It's sickening how that song is actually one of the Top 3 best songs in Burnout: Paradise. Takedown: orgasmic music. Revenge: pretty good music. Paradise: load of cock. :(
Anyway, I'm a shockingly shy person when it comes to the slightest form of commitment. I flirt with every kind of female in existence, but if I actually want to go out with one I curl up into a ball and cry. It takes me a few weeks to ask them out. Makes for fun conversations though. Where she mocks me for being such a wuss and I pretend to be sad to get her naked. Works every time. :D
