Simple as that.

Does that really work? I've always fancied having a crack at it, I must admit.

According to Reuter's, take her out on expensive but financially worthless dates, like for a meal or whatever. Then she will only accept if she's interested. If you buy her gifts then she might just be using you, but as you can't sell on a meal she will probably be genuine if she accepts.

Of course it works! No-one can resist the alluring charms of a polite well-spoken Briton, especially if you throw in a drop of dry wit and sarcasm into the equation.

I've had several foreign girls crumble at the first sound of my accent, they act shy and look at their feet (in a good way) even when I just say: "pleased to meet you". There seems to be a myth that all British men are charming gentlemen, which I strive to fulfill at every opportunity; alas most are not, but the myth perpetuates and is very useful (not that I try to exploit it in any way, that would be caddish). Unfortunately I don't travel abroad as much as I should or want to, especially considering the state of most British girls

That's good. For years at school I was mocked for my accent. Vengeance will taste all the sweeter when it includes lovely American ladies besotted with my dulcid tones!

BKS,

No need for special accent. Your native language will do it(see Celtic tribes)

Fancy giving me some lessons?! I really liked sophisticated stuff

Ok, thread necromancy again. My time to vent.

I like a really nice girl in the school. She's been single the entire year, and although she is with the party group, she stands out because she is much more moderate(she rarely drinks, doesn't smoke) and she really is something special.

Now, the problem is, my roommate spilled the beans and now the entire school knows I like her. That blew everything I had in mind. For some unknown reason, I haven't been able to talk to her at all (unusually shy - something odd at Mr. Big Mouth).

Now, what should I have done?
This summer i'm taking off my glasses, which make me look like a stupid nerd, and I will seriously work out so I can be proud of my six pack when I swim. For sure I will go for her when I come back to school, so I'll suffer a bit for 2 months while I'm on vacation.

But what should I have done before? How detrimental is when someone spills the beans and she finds out about it? And how do I get to the point where she starts taking me seriously, because I'm afraid of overdoing it and I'll end up being the guy who's gonna console her when somebody else dumped her!

Thank you.

I rarely say this to a guy and I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but that was kinda cute.

I can empathize, as many other guys here will. When you're attracted to a girl, it's embarrassing when you have those feelings revealed, no contest there. I wish I knew why, but that's not the point. I think you should try to talk to her. She knows that you like her, so you have one thing to talk about, at least. Your first impression is your only impression, and she already has an impression of you, this really hasn't changed it. I think this is a perfect opportunity for you to go to her and give her the facts, straight. She'll appreciate the honesty, and you can get to know her better.

P.S. Don't count on getting a 6-pack that quick, but good luck.

Alright, get some really REALLY bright lights, blind her, then when she comes too stand next to her and feed her chocolate with a money centre. Then she shall be all yours!

On a more serious tone, I would talk to her sooner rather than later. I've had situations before where I've put off asking a girl out because I'm either too lazy or too shy and then it's become too late and she'd moved on. On the other issue two months should be a decent time to get some basic muscle growth. Get some whey powder and do a good routine of sit-up and crunch exercises, etc.

My issue is usually going for a girl who turns out to have a boyfriend. Woops.

I want an edyzmedieval for my birthday. Maybe he unintentionally did you a favor. Wouldn't be too agressive if she already knows you like her, sounds like a baby-steps case watch for signals. If you have to make a move buy a new pear of shoes and convince yourselve it makes all the difference in the world wearing them.

Women...
Can't live with'em, can't drive'em off a cliff like Persian infantry...

Man... Summertime is the perfect time to have a girlfriend.
Go for it!!!
Girls like attention and she now knows you like her. If you ever had a chance with her, now is the time to act.

If there were some magic that could transport me back to my late teens, I would not hesitate a second. I would act on more of the opertunities I had. Not that I never acted on any. The confidence and knowledge of someone in the 30ties would have been priceless in the body of a 18 year old.
