Girl advice

My friend wants to know how you ask a girl out for a drink on MSN Messenger after a few weeks of back and forth talking in a situation rendered more difficult and embarrassing by the fact me and....the friend and her girl never actually met.

My friend thanks you in advance.

Ask her casually if she'd like to meet up (for lunch, not "a drink") and when she says no, pretend like it's no big deal and you understand why she'd be reticent etc.

But you've planted the seed, my son. Within a month she'll come round.
 
I will inform my friend of your reply who, in turn, will ask this girl out for himself. For it has nothing. Nothing. To do with me.
 
What the
 
Even Ben Budd isn't that quick. Surely that comes after the drink.

For the record, I can last ages. My friend, however, he is not so good. Full three minutes is the record for him, including chatting up at the bar, buying the condom and giving a statement to the police.
 
Ben,why don't you ask her for your friend ?
Job done.
:p

What really helps is asking in the first place. Possibly using the quote below:

"I was wondering if you fancied meeting up for a drink sometime?"

Believe me, if she thought you were grotesque she wouldn't have been speaking to you for that long :thumb:

The voice of reason.
(or,perhaps,you could ask NRITH to ask Kewpie to ask Dave to ask Buzzetta to ask Nugz to ask her?)
 
Thank you for the advice but this continual misunderstanding is starting to frustrate me. It is my friend who is speaking to her, she has never made contact in any way with myself. My friend IS quite tall and a bit ginger however, so issues of being 'grotesque' are unfortunately not alien to me.

Him. Alien to him.

My friend is ginger and he is extremely attractive so being ginger does not necessarily mean you're grotesque...

If she has been talking to your mate for a few weeks then she likes their personality and that is a step in the right direction. It's not all about the looks anyway- when I first met one of my ex-boyfriends I nearly threw up in disgust at what the agency had sent me* but after a few months I realised I proper fancied him, innit :love:

*not escort but a local office temping agency

I think this is terrible advice.

Take control.
Lead the conversation towards commonalities.
Don't try to win her over by being a yes-man or placing any value on her looks.
Have fun with her and make her laugh.
Plant the seed of doing something that is fun.
Tell her you'll invite her to do that fun thing IF she promises not to steal the plastic Jesus from your dashboard (or some other silly reason).

Why would anyone want to wait a month for someone to come around? Anyone who does that is blatantly saying that the woman is clearly higher value than they are. "I'm ok not being her first choice because I don't deserve to be."

Why would a woman want to be with a guy who is of lower value than she is? You should see yourself as someone who is awesome and you see her as someone who is also awesome and together you can be even more awesome.
 
That's such a teenage thing. Where did he meet her, MSN Chat?

Pretty tedious process unless you've already met them. Even meeting them for a split second just makes it so much more kosher.
