speak Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 IF you knew of someone that you liked, that was the person of your dreams. Someone, you find attractive, someone who has a personality that you like: Would you ask them out? Even though u are the girl? Even if you made yourself look stupid, big time - would u do it? Would you have the gumption enough to just GO with it? Link to comment
Ocean 22 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 OF COURSE!!! They only regret you would have is if you didn't take the chance. You would always be wondering what if. I've asked out a few guys some turned me down but if given the chance to do it again I would do it again in a heart beat! Link to comment
Cognitive_Canine Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Yes. Of course. One time I didn't even bother to ask. I just kissed him. I knew he liked me so it wasn't that scary. I asked out my boyfriend first (something he denies on a technicality). However, if I didn't have that vibe that they liked me, I wouldn't make a move. I'm pretty good at telling. But, even I have my fears. Link to comment

But, even I have my fears. But, I am talking about someone that you don't REALLY know. Haven't really seen much of. Someone you have seen, made eye contact with, he winked at me, gave me a eyebrow flash. But it's all been pretty non-verbal. He is a manager for a chain of restaurants I worked for about last week - Friday was my last day. We never really talked. But, I am wanting to go to his job and ask him out. i know that may not be good - but I never see him and would Never ask him at work. He WAS NOT my manager, I just saw him, when he came in for minor things. Should I? Link to comment

Right now, he's just a cute guy that you think things might go well with. Don't psych yourself out. =) Link to comment

A few of the other girls I worked with thought he was HOT, but I don't know if they crush on him as I do. I was thinking, saying, "Hey, I worked at "insert place" and I just wanted to know if you wanted to hang out with me one day? Go eat and talk?" Link to comment

If he's the manager, I'd go to the restaurant with a friend and tell the waiter that you want to speak to the manager. Tell him you used to work there and ask him how he likes the place. Then ask him what he recommends from the kitchen. It's a bold move but it'd probably be fun. Link to comment

DanDee Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Ugh, I hate that expression with a passion... 'man/woman of my dreams'. It sort of places them above you, or, as some sort of godly, unattainable creature. But sure, why not ask him out? You have nothing to lose if you will probably never see him again. Link to comment
dragon lady Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 The "man of my dreams" would not be too shy to ask me out. If shyness wasn't the problem, then I'd assume he wasn't interested and I wouldn't bother. So no is my final answer. Link to comment
xxNPxx Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 The question itself is flawed you, assume that the man if said ladies dreams poses all of the qualities she desired. However not all ladies, or guys know exactly what the man or women of their dreams could be. We just know who it is not. It's assuming that we have a relationship with this person enough to understand that they have trustworthiness and an amount of honesty that only time can tell with out letting time tell the story. Basically it would be claiming to know 100% that an unknown person with only known superficial traits is 100% compatible with you. Besides that, they call them "Man of your dreams" for a reason. They only exist in your dreams, and if not, that doesn't mean said woman is the woman of his dreams. Link to comment

dragon lady Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Why assume that a guy isn't interested if he isn't shy? What have you got to lose by approaching a guy you like? Because if he's not shy and he is interested, then what reason would he have not to approach? All I can think is that he might think I'm taken or he's taken himself (in which case, no thanks). What have I got to lose? Well, I'd probably feel pretty humiliated for a long time afterward. A blow to the confidence is never pleasant. Link to comment

Sparkly Eyes Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 A few years back, I would have said no. But now, hell yes, I make a move if he is really the man of my dreams. If I get rejected, then I cry for a few days and maybe end up with my confidence shattered forever. Link to comment

dragon lady Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 ........ ................. I'm shy myself! It might sound like a double standard, but we're talking about my "dream man" here. My dream man wouldn't have any reservations in asking me out. And if I could have my own dream personality for myself, I wouldn't be too shy to ask him out either. Link to comment
dragon lady Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Do you think (non-shy) men ask out every woman they are interested in? I cannot imagine a non-shy guy not wanting to ask out a girl he's very interested in if the circumstances are appropriate. As in, no one is in a relationship, there is some reciprocal flirting, and there are no unusual circumstances preventing them from being together (distance, ex boyfriend of best friend, etc).

dude69 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 im a dude and if some chick came to me and kissed me.. i wouldnt be complaining about it... hell if she asked me out i would be fine with it too.. i have so many things on my mind during the day that i sometimes get lost as to who is right there infront of me.. so do it Link to comment
arcadefire Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Wouldn't say "man of my dreams", but when I was a freshmen in college I got the gumption to ask a cute senior out! Obviously, he turned me down, but that experience was a thrill. Thankfully, that was the one and only time I asked a guy out. I suppose I got the courage when (at that time) I looked back and realized it was too late to do anything about my 3-4 year high school crush, one that was littered with teenage infatuation but no action. I was frustrated at myself for doing nothing on that one. To me college was a clean slate. So to answer the question, yes, take the chance and ask. The worst he would say is no! This advice goes out to the gentlemen too. Link to comment

Would you have the gumption enough to just GO with it? I think I probably would. When I was in college, I fell hard for a guy sitting near me, and I went out of my way to initiate conversation. As it turned out, he worked about 1 block from where I lived, so I casually suggested that it might be cool to have lunch sometime. He said OK, and we ended up getting married 8 years later. Granted, we're divorced now, but it was very amicable, we are good friends, and I wouldn't go back and change it for anything. Link to comment
