So today I was with my friends at a cafe near campus. We were all waiting to order when this pretty girl walks in and stands a couple of people behind us. I stare at her and she stares at me for like 20 seconds. Anyway after I order I walk out of the cafe to sit with my friends outside. As I pass her she smiles at me. I was thinking about asking her for her number and maybe to like go out, but I decided against it because I thought it might be too weird. What do you people think?

well.....it seems like she sorta likes u back....but if i were that girl....and someone asked me out (a person who i completely dunt know)....i'd freak out. sorry i have to be honest...... but i think she likes u back....so no problem!

it was just more of a friendly smile and a passing interest, but then again you never know

To the ones above yeah that's what I kinda figured and so I decided to not do anything.

Ehhh I guess it depends. I wouldn't really know them. I'd try getting to know them first to make sure you really want to go out with them.

dude... if you don't ask or at least talk, you will NEVER receive... we all fear rejection, so don't even think about her in any way except maybe be her friend... mind over matter... lolz... i hate that saying... but just focus your mind on being yourself, it will work out in the end if you are genuine...

I'm telling you this, cause well: What if you find out from talking with her that she gets off on shitting on you... lolz, or something weird... ya know!?! lolz...

It's a good idea to make that connection and talk a little...

i wouldnt say no, but i wouldnt say yes... In my opinion that kinda invite ramdonly is way too bad... U can ask for phones or emails, but no: "hey!, lets go on a date tomorrow" thing, since u met her or him yesterday:S

weird weird weird

I would think that it wouldn't be that strange...I mean that the girl was looking at you too, right? A lot of people do meet that way, although I don't think it's the majority that do...^_^' So I guess go for it!

Uhhh, maybe you should just talk to her for awhile first, then u ask for her e-mail and after tshe gives it to you, ask her to write her down her number down as well.
(do the third part if u have the guts and confidence. and...... if u want things to progress faster)

Yes it's really weird. Especially if I don't know them.

Yes,I would say so...It's not that strange,but instead of askng for her number,why don't you start with a short conversation?So you can know a bit more about her,then you can ask for her phone number... ^_^

Look. In that situation, don't just go up and ask for her number. But, yes it sounds like she was interested in you. Its really weird for a guy to just come up and ask for a girls number. Girls that I've known when this happen get freaked out and want to get away asap, usually behind my back for protection.

Anyway, you should just play it cool and ask her like "hello, how are you today?" then introduce yourself and ask her if she would like to sit with you with a cup of coffee or cake. Then ask about her what she likes ect. Then ask her for her phone number.

kay, being a girl, and putting myself in her situation, I would say that depending on how you do it, it could be taken as one of those wow-this-guy-is-going-to-stalk-me-now sort of things. However...if you just asked for her name ( nicely) and come up with some sort of quick witty comment at the same time to make her laugh and catch her attention, she might take more to you asking for her number. Then, again, I agree with DreamTraveller in that it sounds like she was indeed interested. Therefore, in case none of this works, and you fail miserably, don't worry, you'd be justified. (she did give all of the right signals after all)

Getting to know someone as a friend is the best course of action, especially if you two are only aquaintances; speaking from the point of view of a female, I'd respond to a polite "how are you?", instead of some unnerving come-on; heidilael3312's advice sounds about right.
I wish you the utmost luck with your situation!
Take care,

u should be starting a little cnversatin to make her feel comfortable enough to hand u her e-mail and hp no

I've had that urge to just ask out some random girl before too, but I never have for the same reason as Benjikun7, it just wouldn't feel right, plus I'm really shy and not to great socially so there would be a 99% chance I'd screw it up anyway. Also I wouldn't know what to do is she said yes anyway, as I'd kind of expect a no in that situation anyway. In any case I'd never actually ask out a girl I don't know for several reasons.

Based on your situation, she probably has an interest in you.. You might take the risk and she might probably be quite delighted as well..

But.. if it's me.. I'll probably be stunned for a moment and say no. I prefer knowing the other person better before agreeing to go out..

I personally would be a little weirded out. I don't usually date someone until I know them better. But asking for a girl's number I don't think is too weird. It gives her a chance to get to know you before you go out.
But on the other hand I know most people have that romantic fantasy of love at first sight. Which would be totally awesome if things worked out that way.

actually, to tell the truth, it is rather risking to ask a gal out coz they might turn u down

It all depends on how you present yourself. The key to do it is C&F, cocky and funny. If you present it as a sort of a serious joke, it will work.
Also, do not be afraid of weirding girls out, because that is how you get better at getting numbers and dates. Also, confidence takes practice.

i duno...girls tend to do weird things...they are not true to them selves...i think they trying to find something...i would see that if that you knew the girl or something that she might go out with you. also i agree on presentation...talk about yourself and then get in deeper topics and carry on from there...T_T weird...

Hmmm... if I kinda liked him, I'd say yes I think.

its too sudden to ask for a date.. you should maybe give time and just get to know her first.. I had a similar experience... a guy asking me out and I hardly even know him.. a girl can freak out.. even though if she does like you, she'd still be shock or overwhelmed i guess..

It sound like a desperate situation. lol

In real life!
Yeah, the girl will freak out as usual. =)

But for a guy asking a girl out is not sumthing easy to do than said. Heart beating like crazy, sweaty hands and even lost of words.

It worth the risk.

I will say HELL YEAH ask her out in front of the crowd of people or her friends. Let see what happen.
