    Default Girl Help

    Sorry, I had to post it.

    So, there's this girl on my volleyball team (rec. obviously) who was on my team last year. Last year though, she seemed to really like me, but the last game I was going to ask her out at was canceled.

    I want to ask her out now (even though the season just started), and she still seems to be interested in me. The problem is: there's now 2 other girls I might wanna ask out as well.

    So what's the best way to go about this? And how should I go about asking? If it's the other 2, how should I get to know them?

    Replies before 6:00 PM Eastern time would be great, because practice is at 6:30.

    EDIT: I can sing 'Anyway you want it' by Journey word-for-word. Don't know if that helps.

    You should really make your mind about who you want to ask out first. No point asking out one of them and then regretting it shortly after...

    I don't know our age, but even if we suppose that you can handle three girls without making a juvenile fool of yourself, the four of you will probably end up friends and nothing more. If you want that one girl, you should make it clear to her that she is first choice by taking her out separately. Pronto!

    No.. that would not help. It's a date, not a wedding proposal. Just do what Rhyfelwyr suggests, figure out who you're interested in and then go for it.

    Pick one, ask her out within two weeks.

    Any sign of indecision/interest in other women will kill you dead. If girl one realises you are eyeing two and three she will place you in either the "clueless" or "arse" bin. You might get out of the one, the other you will be in for life.

    .....what?

    invite people from volley-ball, which takes place at 6:30PM.....to lunch? when exactly would this lunch take place? only on the weekends obviously, and it would look weird taking 3 girls, 1 of whom i will ask out, to a place like Chili's, and even weirder at mcdonalds.

    In situations like these, there's only one true answer you can count on: Chance!

    You have three girls, right? And you only want to ask one out, yes? Obtain three coins. Assign each coin to a girl and proceed to flip all three in succession. Any coin that shows up as "tails" means you do not ask her out. Keep flipping until there is only one "heads" left. In the case that all remaining coins come up tails (or heads), simply flip again. In the unlucky case that all three come up tails on your first flip, that's God's way of telling you that you should look elsewhere.

    Best of luck, and may the Chance Gods be with you!

    How do you people eat a lunch? A good lunch is a light dinner in a classy establishment, with the added benefit of no strings attached. And I don't mean you should have lunch with them all at the same time lol, it's a good way to feel the temperature of the water, and hey it's just lunch easy to get away with, no risks all gain.

    Surprisingly, yes, I would indeed. French don't do dates like Americans all that much. When you're young, you go out in groups more. I'd get some guys together for some fun night out and ask all these girls to come along. Then take your pick. If you want to start something, there needs to be a 'click', a connection. So in fact, you are not taking your pick, the mood and the circumstances will decide if there's some picking to do. Dates shouldn't be awkward and hard work. They should be about having some fun with some girls. If there's fun, everything else will come naturally. If it isn't there - then hey, it isn't there.

    Oh, and at some point, I for one would climb on a table, rip open my shirt and belt out that Journey song. Girls dig that stuff.

    Or not.

    Who cares. Have some fun.

    Pick the one you know and ask her to go see a movie/get dinner. Don't make this more complicated than it needs to be.

    Well, this tells us you aren't in love with anyone.

    Well, funnily enough... I would do exactly the same thing. Organise a group dinner, invite a whole bunch of guys and girls. It will make you lots of friends, and it will impress those girls when you pull it off.

    So, Loius' advice is good.

    You liked the original girl first and the most, then why not go for her? The other 2 might be "prettier" but who cares?

    Agreeing with this. Any girl worth keeping likes Journey. Also, date the one you actually know and like.

    So two girls are pretty but you dont know them, one you do know, you like and you think she may like you.

    Is this even a question?

    Also, if you make your decision purely off how the other two look without knowing them, I will track you down and beat you.

    Seriously you gotta make your pick. Buthoneslty i would take out the one who has the greatest chance of saying yes. if you think they will all say yes then choose the nicest one. Ugh, i decided to go based totally off looks and i mean this chick was a looker, varsity soccer, homecoming queen, but she was a total biatch. Seriously, beautiful girl but i hated her attitude, oh and she was sort of dumb and i like a girl i can let my nerdy self out around not just my football captain side....

    So to recap pick the nice one unless the pretty ones are nice too, then you always take the package deal.......

    This isn't really good advice.

    If you look at a girl and a "prettier" one comes up, and she suddenly has your attention, then the first girl doesn't have what you're looking for. Personality is essential, but so is sexual attraction. This isn't a question of looks, it's a question of which one can hold your attention in a room full of women.

    Put simply, which one are you most attracted to?

    This isn't a big brain or little brain question, it's a reaction one.

    Well, if the nice one says no, you can always ask the next one.

    Also, I hope the nice girl will get what a superficial **** you are and let you down.

    I'm not saying its a bad thing that the other girl is prettier, but for him to just go "Shes pretty, therefore better than this girl I know and like and is still pretty, just not as pretty."

    Remember, looks go away.

    edit: im trying to say that if he has a genuine interest in one of the other girls, great! go for it. But if its only because of how they look (which doesnt mean he can't get to know them, and then find out they are great) I think that is just not on.

    BAH! what are you worried about - your not getting married to her - yet

    go out with all of them - on different days/weekends

    the first parts of a relationship are non-excluvise its well understood - while your sussing out if you like someone

    besides, the fact that your dating one of the girls will make you more appealing to the others... it always does

    and if theres one who interested in you.. it may spurn her into action before its too late

    have fun .. its sounds like a great situation

    dont take it seriously just as light hearted making friends and getting to know people and living life

    man for you it doesnt rain - it pours
