Asking a guy out....

  Author:  25756  Category:(General Advice) Created:(7/14/2004 6:49:00 PM)
This post has been Viewed (1571 times)

I really like this guy, and every so often I get the impression that he likes me too (once when I said "hey" to him online he responded with "hey beautiful" so...), but we're both really shy. Well, even thoguh he doesn't act it all the time, he's told me before that he is shy (and I told him I didn't beleive him lol!). We've gone out once, and he has semi-asked me out a second time (but it couldn't be a full ask-out thing because my cousin was visiting and she had to come along).

The problem: We know eachother's phone numbers and everything, but we're both so shy! I've only been asked out by him online. And I'm so SO scared to call him on the phone! (I've actually called him twice, but he knew beforehand that I was going to call) whenever I say to myself, "I am going to call him!" I get these really bad butterflies -no- HELICOPTERS in my stomach and I just can't.

What should I do???

-Agent Q-

P.S.-It kind of makes me feel stupid and cowardly asking him out online.

Date: 7/14/2004 7:01:00 PM  From Authorid: 33401    The best advice I would have to say is call him! you don't have to ask him out then. Get comfortable talking with him on the phone. After a few calls back and forth feel free to ask him out then. get comfortable ;D. I'm dealing with somewhat the same thing. I hope this helped. Love,  
Date: 7/14/2004 7:05:00 PM  From Authorid: 33401    Another thing that just came to mind. Make up an excuse to call him. You know like ask him about schoolwork, an event. You'll come up with something. Love,  
Date: 7/14/2004 7:06:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    Thanks for the advice Farlo! I might have to try that. The problem-it's summer so there isn't a whole lot to talk about! Also, we talk online enough so we know what's going on in general with eachother's lives. Hmm...Thanks though!  
Date: 7/14/2004 7:08:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    Maybe I'll just have to suck it up and call him? Lol! There's nothing so important going on right now that I'd have to call him about it.   
Date: 7/14/2004 7:08:00 PM  From Authorid: 55251    Call him and just relax, nothing to worry about..like Farlo said, after a few calls and getting comfortable with him, ask him out then, it will feel alot easier to do Good Luck!  
Date: 7/14/2004 7:19:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    Thanks Morphix....Maybe I'll call him and have a plan already set out in front of me lol and rehearse it beforehand or soemthing. Haha!  
Date: 7/14/2004 7:31:00 PM  From Authorid: 62779    *grins* sometimes us women need to bite the bullet and take charge.... take a deeeeep breath, call him, and as you exhaling, ask him casually, if he wants to hang out with you sometime. LoL *hugs* hope that helps ~Angel Wolfe~  
Date: 7/14/2004 7:36:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    Lol! Thanks Angel Wolfe! I have an idea...maybe just before I call him, I should go for a 5 minute run to tire myself out..and maybe to abouot 50 sit ups too just to make sure...lol!  
Date: 7/14/2004 8:21:00 PM  From Authorid: 59371    Just call him! You'll do fine. Maybe practice what you are going to say beforehand if you get nervous enough. Good luck!   
Date: 7/14/2004 9:25:00 PM  From Authorid: 53157    Call him. Get to know him a little better and then you can ask him out. Before you call him think about stuff you are going to say. Heres an idea call and ask him if he has a cd ( that you know he will have) and ask if you can borrow it so you can burn it.  
Date: 7/14/2004 11:31:00 PM  From Authorid: 14018    well I know it is hard to even think about it, your chest fills up with a hard soild air that you can't seem to even get out of your chest. The fear alone is enough to make you want to run and hide under your bed. I myself have not come out from under the bed... but if you know he likes you, as evedent by the fact that he has asked you, just take the leap. It would be nice over the phone, but you can always ask he same way he did, online  
Date: 7/15/2004 10:25:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    Haunted-that describes things exactly...lol....thanks Zenn and Lita.... I know he has an Evanescence CD....lol....  
Date: 7/15/2004 7:34:00 PM  From Authorid: 30786    I'd suggest hanging out as a group, or going to a group function or party together. If you are both shy, then it is a good way to get to know each other better and get used to hanging out together without a lot of pressure. Get a bunch of friends together and do something, like see a movie, go to a party, swimming, camping, etc. He is probably having these same butterflies you are!  
Date: 7/16/2004 12:35:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    Thanks Breezy, but I've done enough of that with him...I want to get a chance to just talk with him without having to "compete" with others I guess....  
Date: 7/18/2004 4:01:00 AM  From Authorid: 16339    hey Agent Q. what you have on your hands is extrememly common (hey, i was in your spot 8 months ago next week :-D) When u want to go out with someone the hardest thing is really asking THE question. its Big its Nerve racking & it isnt easy. The important thing is to stay cool about it. Be honest, dont be too blunt or subtile, and dont try to be too dramatic or you might trip over your tongue. Just play it cool, be nice, and make an excuse to talk to them. in person is best. I wouldnt have it any other way myself because its more sincere & is a real show of courage. lol. Some people dont like being asked out over the phone or by email or IM (my friend dumped his gf by email. THAT was very messy indeed.) Person to person communication is crucial in any relationship. Like i said. Take it easy, dont over do it, dont get super dramatic like on TV & be yourself. This last point is the most important. If you cant be yourself, then who is asking this guy out? And those butterflies will always be there. Just dont let them interfere with your nerves. Good luck :-) Actus Cum Sapentia,  
Date: 7/18/2004 7:42:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    Thank you Draconis! That really helps me a lot. I don't have a chance to ask him out in person unless I go to his house...and he might now even be there at that time! I think it'll be okay to ask him out by phone because he's asked me out ONLINE. Lol. I don't want to ask him out online, but oh my gosh this is so nerve wracking! Lol! I'll get over it though. Soon hopefully. These next two weeks would be a good time to ask him out because many of my friends are going to be away. (But then if I perchance DON'T ask him out this week or so, I am going to be very bored! Lol!)  
Date: 7/18/2004 7:44:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    Oh and no worries about having me be too dramatic at all....too UNDERdramatic is more like it!   
Date: 6/27/2005 10:03:00 AM  From Authorid: 16376    is this the same guy I read about on the other post like a minute ago? LOL.  
Date: 7/3/2005 8:55:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 25756    I have no idea! Lol! Probably. I had the biggest crush on the guy I'm talking about in this post...for the longest time too. But I've definitely moved on. :-D But hmm, I could still use this advice here!! Lol...
