Asking a girl out via email: legit or not

[Prussian to the Iron]

hey, welcome to the girl thread club Alexander!!!


anyway, even i wouldn't ask a girl out in an email.



see, what you gotta do is have your friends kidnap her, rough her around, and then dump her in an alley in a part of town you would go to, but usually don't. like the doctors office/dentist. then you drive by , get out of your car in clear sight of her, and when she asks why you're here, say you were coming to meet a friend. then you offer her a ride home, but you have roofies in your water bottle. give her this water. after shes knocked out, you gotta tie her up in your closet, leave her a 12-course meal and a microwave, and lock the closet from the outside. come home, tell her she just got punked, and she will laugh so hard, she can't resist going out with you!!!

tell her she just got punked

She's much more likely to think she just got raped or somethin, but ok, pretty sweet plan.

It puts the lotion on the skin, else it gets the hose again.

I'm a little late to the party, but has anyone suggested adding her on Facebook? Her number may be on there, and if not, asking someone out via Facebook has become socially acceptable.

[Megas Methuselah]

Meeting her briefly then suddenly adding her as a friend on facebook would seem just a tiny bit creepy, but if you think about, I guess it could work out. But I always use verbal communication before adding someone on facebook, like:

"heeeey, I gotta get goin', but are you on facebook?"
-answer synonymous to a "yes"-
"nice, i'll add you sometime. later!"
-answer synonymous to "goodbye"

Face to face seems to be bound in the antique notions of gender roles. Dominant and missive positions. Email would seem to be a nice deviation from said notion and allow for both to be either missive or dominant at the same time or each adhering to what feels more comfortable. Courtship devoid of gender roles. Equal positions from the start, as long as both parties participate with that oh so difficult and seemingly forgotton art or honesty. Wimps of the world unite! Let us start a new trend toward a computer driven, heart felt, mutual respect!

Let it be known, my inbox is full! :P

The one useful suggestion in this thread.

ATPG: Any news?

Nerd: Do you mean "submissive"? Otherwise I agree. Though the one time I did it, the email thread somehow turned into a discussion of "The Patriarchy" and ended with me thinking she is a raving feminist. Bullet dodged, then.

Yes I meant submissive. One must be subtle when applying my technique. If I read your post correctly, then you did everything on par, you discovered her all important personality thru honest discourse, ie. sincerity in words. On to the next one if she was unappealing, in my eyes, you lost none of your masculinity.

Lunch is supposed to be casual so why not.

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

Heh, fun thread.

So I emailed her for her number then called her. Had to leave a message; she got back to me and said she was interested. Played phone tag for a while (she's pretty busy with work) but we worked out a mutually acceptable time and I'm going to see her on Friday. So there you go. :D

Part of the delay (both in working out a time and place and in replying to the thread) was I was on vacation in Canada. Terrible timing lol. So, thanks for your help guys.

[Hosakawa Tito]

Excellent!

[Martok]

Glad to hear it. I hope things go well on Friday!

[Beskar]

After you got to know eachother very well. You should ask her, "if i asked you out in that email, would have you said yes?"

[A Nerd]

"if i asked you out in that email, would have you said yes?"

Yes. I would like to know what her answer would be.

I am glad all worked out well for you!

[Megas Methuselah]

... I was on vacation in Canada-

Awesome! Where?

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

We'll see. :P

Awesome! Where?

All the touristy places around Niagara Falls, with my family.

Ohhh, so romantic! Bring raincoats, and watch out for school teachers going over the falls in a barrell! :P

Oh. Ok.

The Falls are beautiful (and the boat tours that bring you right up to them are pretty cool) but there are too many other tourists for me to really enjoy it. :P I think my favorite place to see was Fort George but I'm a history nerd and they had a musket firing demonstration. :P

Sounds like it will be a fun date indeed! I think dates based on historical places are the best kind! I always wanted to take a date on a Boston Harbor Cruise and visit George's Island in the harbor. The cruise is like a history lesson of the harbor, and George's Island is an old fort/Civil War prison that is supposedly haunted! Makes for a great day!

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

Nah man, you misunderstand. I was on vacation, past tense. :P I think the falls would be a great place to bring a lady friend, but I think an 8 hour drive is a bit much to ask for for a first date. :P

[Hosakawa Tito]

If you ever visit the American side of the Falls check out the Cave of the Winds tour. There used to be a cave behind the waterfall that has since collapsed. However every spring they erect a wooden catwalk along the base of the Falls, that you access by an elevator through the rock face. It's a pretty impressive view as you are inches away from the water, and some of the observation decks do have water cascading on them. You'll get wet, but on a hot muggy day it feels wonderful.

As a compliment to Fort George, the Fort Niagara tour is a must see also. We went when they had a reenactment battle and it was a good time. I believe the two forts are about 3-4 miles apart on the opposite sides of the Niagara river, close enough to bombard each other with their big cannon.

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

We did the Cave of the Winds after the Maid of the Mist (boat) tour. Pretty awesome, though it was a little misty and overcast that day so it was a little less refreshing and more just wet. :D We didn't manage to get to Fort Niagara before they closed, but we did see Fort George from the town Ft Niagara is in, so it wasn't a total loss.

I saw that too! And they had a cannon firing demonstration.

I'm glad we agree :)
