    Just show her what ub3r mirc0 you have. Knock on the door, then play a game of C&C Generals in your mind, acting out the keyboard and mouse. Show her how smooth your mouse grip is, how fast your fingers are on the keyboard.

    Once she sees the micro, shes yours.


    Yes, thats actually gotten me a girl. A hot one too, that doesnt play games.

    Yes, well, I'm no hillbilly either. In fact, there aren't any hills at all where I'm from. Just mud and swamps.

    As far as boring... well, what's your definition of boring? It's no more boring than some of the twaddle you'll have to listen to when you start dating girls.

    My advice is not to date your neighbors. If things go south, or you just want to get away from them, everyday will be awkward. It'd be kind of like being married.

    But Aquaman, you can't ask out a woman without gills. You're from two different worlds!

    Just kidding, get to know her, find things she likes, try setting up a time to hangout. You could, and probably should, start with a group of people, then if you find things going further, try going somewhere with just her.

    Best of luck!

    Spare yourself the aggravation and forget about her for a few years. There's plenty of time for women to ruin your life later, no need to rush.


    For the serious answer...
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Seriously, I think you're both too young, and if there's not some common point of interest (like, you both play WOW, or something) you'll be bored when you're alone.

    But, if you persist in doing something, anything will do, trust me. At the age of 13, she's just insecure as you are. Act like you know what you're doing, even if you don't. She doesn't know what she would like you to do, so it's all the same. Don't talk too much, suggest some activity, it doesn't matter what, biking, arcade, mall, computer games, watching movies, swimming... You know what girls your age like to do.

    I presume there are at least a few kids your age where you live and that you hang out with them sometimes. The next time you kids get together to do whatever you do, just go over to her house, ring the bell and ask her if she would like to hang out with you and your friends, 'cause you know she's just moved here, she doesn't know anybody blah, blah, blah. She should jump at the opportunity to meet kids her age. That's a good ice breaker and after that, if it goes well, you can invite her to do something together, just the two of you.

    Mow her lawn.

    -edit-
    If she's worthwhile (or well-brought up) she'll come out and offer you water.

    Talk.

    Then you're on your own.

    Heh. Young people.

    Want attention? Do something.

    Preferably, something constructive, not just cartwheels down the sidewalk.

    "Hey, what are you doing?'

    "Aww, I got bored doing our lawn for my Dad, and I still have half a tank of gas, so I figured..."

    "It's kinda, like, dirty work, huh?"

    "A little. But I don't mind. Water cleans it all away."

    "Hey. Want some water?"

    "OK"

    Ten years and 3 babies later, they'll still talk about the 'Lawn Mower Day' with affection. And the kids will hate hearing it again for the 400th time.

    Or:

    She'll watch from behind the curtains and never come out, much less offer water. In which case: don't waste your time. She's not ready yet, and may have issues bigger than you wanna handle.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    1. Cartwheels down a sidewalk would start a convo. ESP if he can pull them off in rapid succession.

    2. Im a man/flexs



    I'll agree to your plan only if he walks over without telling anyone.

    No need to be a dick.

    As for the girl, why don't you tell your mom to invite her family over for dinner? It worked for a friend of mine back in the day.

    Two easy routes.

    Ones what Strike and Kush suggested.

    Second is the opposite. Be friend with the other mother and make them invite your family for dinner. Probs she'll introduce you to the girl

    Theres other ways like chucking a baseball into their garden when the girls families aren't around, ask for a trick or treat together or what ever.. But important thing is to be your self, and don't expect the girl to be your lover to start with. Aim for her to be a friend first.

    Oh and never go to a movie with a girl.. especially not just a two of you. While men prefers action films, girls like romance. So avoid it if you can. Horror is fine but horrors are often R18+

    Good luck and do keep telling us the progress.

    What about writing stuff to her and put it in her mailbox? (Or better send it via the postal service).
    See if she runs out as soon as the post man comes along. If she does, you know you have succeeded. She will be looking for a secret admirer. The final letter will be signed and she will be knocking on your door.

    First of all, I would not date a neighbor or a co-worker untill you get to know them very well, as you are gonna be stuck with them.
    That aside though, it is pretty simple. Knock on the door when you know she is home. When her ma answers it, tell her you would like to speak with her daughter. Ask the girl if she wants to go get a creamy with you and go see a movie. That is how I did it and it worked fine. :P
    Best advice, don't be afraid and don't put a lot onto it. Girls do not like nervous guys. Let her know you want to spend time with her, but don't let her smash you if she refuses.
    Hammer, anvil, forge and fire, chase away The Hoofed Liar. Roof and doorway, block and beam, chase The Trickster from our dreams.

    You are 14, she is 13. It 'aint gunna be much of a relationship anyway.

    There is some great advice in this thread, if you wade through the Strike for the South junk.

    Very good strategy. I've asked out and been turned down by nearly every girl I've been friends with. If you make the girl feel alright about how they are etc, and appear happy no matter what her answer is, she will think better of you.

    Not to mention that you will look like desperate if you do not shrug it off. Girls get creeped out by desperate guys. Not to say that because a guy puts a lot on a girl's affection there is something wrong with him, but that is the way girls think (that is why they always get stuck with the jerks who think nothing of them :P). I made that mistake when I was younger, but learned really quickly that it was not so much about really liking someone as it was giving them what they want. You can do both of course, but if you if just like them, that ain't gonna do you too much good.
    Hammer, anvil, forge and fire, chase away The Hoofed Liar. Roof and doorway, block and beam, chase The Trickster from our dreams.
    Vigilance is our shield, that protects us from our squalid past. Knowledge is our weapon, with which we carve a path to an enlightened future.
