Calling the girl I like

[C]

I've met this girl from my friend, and I know I'm attracted to her.

It was last week when I and my friends went to a club. This girl came along with my friend's friend.

We got to talk for a bit. But for most of the times, she was doing the talking. She didn't ask much about me. I don't know if she's interested in me. But once, she let me hold her hands when I was leading her to the washroom. I didn't know why I have the guts to hold her hands at that time. Maybe because I had had couple of drinks. =)

And then at the end of the night, I asked for her phone number. She did give me her home number.

Now that I have her number for a week. I called once, but no one picked up. And I lost my courage to call her again.

Being such a coward, I know I might never get to know her better. I think I'm afraid of failure. I do not want to get turn down anymore.

May anyone please give me some advice?

What should I say to her when I call?

Should I ask her out directly? or should I just talk to her for a while?

Please help.

Thanks

Hi there C

 

You know what? She didn't have to give you her number, she didn't even have to let you hold her hand, if she did there's a good chance she likes ya (or she was drunk but we'll not think about that right now...). Now I don't know you or her but I do know that in love nothing ventured nothing gained so why don't you just pick up the phone, dial her number and take a deep breath. Let it out before you speak or you'll choke, but just start with 'hi' and try and be yourself. She might be thrilled to bits you called, she might have been waiting by the phone for a week, she might chatter away and you won't have to do much at all, but if you don't call you'll never find out will ya?

 

Ah young love... ain't it grand. G'won, C honey, give her a call and let the dice roll!...

Have you seen how many girls post on here going..."Well, we held hands, and I gave him my number...but he NEVER called!!!" She's probably wondering WHY you haven't called her...not EVERYONE has Caller ID.

 

If she gave you a number that wasn't to a Pizza place...chances are, she's intrested!

... Unless, of course, she happens to live or work in a pizza place.

Wow, everything was worked out even before I had a chance to reply. Let us know how the date goes :-p

[C]

The date went well.

 

We had a long talk. I got to know her better.

 

But I don't know whether I should ask her out again.

 

The problem is ...She's really mature. She's only a year older than I am, but i feel that she's a "better person" than I am.....

 

I'm a student right now. Well, even though she's also studying at this moment, she has been in the workforce for past several years already. I know that she has experienced way way more than I have.

 

She also is a ambitious person. She seems to have her future planned out very nicely.

 

Just a complete opposite of her, I'm still in search of my future. I don't really know what my career will be at this moment. She's so clear about herself.

 

Maybe it's my self-esteem. There's a little voice inside telling me that I'm not good enough for her.

 

I know I have feelings for her. And I can tell that she doesn't seem to dislike me or find me annoying. But it just seems that we are really different.

 

I don't know what to do.

Can anybody give me any advice? =)

 

Thanks.!! =)
