    The staring-at-girl's-chests rule applies:

    What he said. If the guy looked like this guy:

    then number given. However, if he looked like say this guy:
    hairy_hairy_man1.jpg

    Probably not gonna happen. But ! There is the ordinary decent guy in between who loses out.

    I used to live in the US & it's perfectly acceptable to ask for someone's number (& have them give it) & then meet for a coffee date (an hour max), then follow that up with something more serious. too much emphasis is put on "go for a drink" or "go for a meal" or anything else. Grab a latte first, that works out, then go for something longer.

    without engaging bragging mode or anything, my wife is stunning looking (I think she's got better with age), I'm no Ryan Gosling/Patrick Dempsey/Russel Crowe (Delete where applicable). But I did have the balls to ask her out (from a group of friends she was with) & she really appreciated that...

    I used to stand outside Assests models on Leeson Street one day every week, for a year and ask every girl that came out would she "like to come to my house... I have sweets and stuff". Until the police stopped me doing it, why? I was just being nice.


    Nah seriously though, you can do this without making yourself look like a weirdo if you dont ask the question so straight out. Youre going in saying 'question one... blah blah... *ignoring the rest of the group* I think youre gorgeous can I have your number?'... Its all to fast, youre still a stranger and potential stalker in her eyes. Go in, talk to the whole group, show them youre not a weirdo, be funny, ask their opinion on some things, gradually direct your conversation away from the girl you like, charm her friends - the way to a girls heart is to get her friends to like you - then spin the conversation back onto the one you like, seperate her from the group, compliment her, then ask her for her number.

    I used to do this a lot, it takes practice. It helps if it seems like youre selling something to start with surprisingly because once theyre stuck in the conversation theyre waiting for you to bring up the product, then one of them will usually say 'what are you trying to sell?' or something similar and you can just say 'what? youre very cynical, I'm just a chatty bloke!' then they realise how much balls you have and see you in a different light... once you get it right once you realise its not all that difficult, its flattering for women I think...

    Manuka you did say you liked them hairy!


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,150 ✭✭✭✭Malari


    Dinxminx, I haven't seen what he texted you but send him this:

    One day while walking on the street
    I got a big surprise
    You interrupt my daily chores
    With "that look" in your eyes

    I gave my digits far too quick
    (I realised too late)
    The texts are coming thick and fast
    The rhyming isn't great

    "Why can't I grow a pair?" I thought
    "I hope this pleading stops"
    So f*** off and quit texting
    Or I'll call the bleedin' cops!

    :D

    I'd dig it, as long as I felt there could be chemistry with the guy. So he'd have to be confident, attractive, and not outwardly seem to be any sort of creeper. I'd make sure the first date was in a very public place, though. But yeah, that could be very hot.

    So that isn't common in Ireland? How do people get together then? Could be difficult. Also, is it common at all in Ireland for women to ask men out?

    No it's not that common at all in Ireland to approach people in the street

    As for women asking men out - did it once and will never ever do it again!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,496 ✭✭✭LolaLuv


    Yikes. What about at a club or something?


  • Registered Users Posts: 726 ✭✭✭dubsgirl


    Yes clubs are fine

    Also pubs

    Also the photocopier...

    Really theres lots of places just not cold calling as it were;)

    Not common at all by my experience (I'm Irish BTW), USA was just for a while, but it did open my eyes to how "backward at coming forward" we are here.

    I've been asked out once by a woman. It was incredibly flattering & inspiring & allround great for it to happen, I was married by then so I had to turn her down. If I'd been single I would have jumped at it, she was incredibly cute (& as I mentioned before, I wouldn't class myself as an amazing looking guy (I'm ok though) ;)

    I have found though that more women flirt with you when you 're married, what's that all about then ?

    Ha, I have no idea, but there was a Seinfeld episode where George started wearing a wedding ring to get more chicks. I'd never date a married guy if for no other reason than I'd be petrified of karma biting me in the ass.

    I've also found that women are more forward in talking to you.

    Could be wrong - I've haven't tested it out - but my feeling is that they might just feel more relaxed talking or flirting with a man with a wedding ring because there is less chance of it being interpreted as a real come-on?

    How romantic! Not "I was in love with my wife so I turned her down"

    This is why I think married men are a turn-off. The attitude is that they would get into trouble if they cheated, rather than they actually don't want to :rolleyes:
