Oh the ever elusive relationship problems of HPKeeper.. help required... Inquire inside....

[hpkeeper]

Hey guys, you probably haven't seen enough of these threads from me, so here's one to add to the stack... I feel that I haven't met my quota. So here it goes.

Last year, about a month ago, right around class registration time... I saw a girl, I thought she was damn smokin'... unfortunatley a few days later, I met my current ex-girflriend and disregarded the girl that I previously saw because i didn't have any classes with her. I've been broken up with my ex for god knows how long now... so I was walking around campus over the past few weeks and I was like damn! there's that smokin' girl that I saw. It turns out that I see her many times throughout the day, I just don't have any classes with her. So I pass by her and just stare and often times have to wipe the drool from my mouth after she passes by. She hasn't taken particular notice of me, at least not that I have observed.

I know nothing about this girl other than the fact that she goes to my school and I pass by her on occasion. We both seem like we're in a rush at the time we pass each other. Over the past few days I've noticed her more and more and I know what you all are going to say "so go talk to her"... the only thing is... I don't know what to say to her, I don't know what I have in common with her other than the fact that she goes to MV. I don't want to use a corny pickup line because I'm not that kind of guy and this girl in my opinion is probably a little bit above a corny pickup line.

So what's your opinion...? BTW... I've been in the ATOT for a while... I know the rules... and I don't have any pictures as of yet, but the more you help me out, the more likely an aquisition of a picture.


~ThE KeEp~

P.S. - There's always the potential boyfriend factor.... what do I do with that?

 

[Paulson]

what happened to the one chick you had posted about a while ago?

I still have a pic of her on my pichosting site (if you forgot which one I'm talking about.

 

[BDawg]

Ask her if she knows where the gym is.

Seriously, you have to look for an opportunity to strike up a conversation, like she drops something and you help her pick it up, etc.

Or, you could ask her if she'd like to have a frappuccino (my campus had a coffee shop). That way it's not a big commitment and it's in a public place so the creep out factor isn't high.

 

[hpkeeper]

Paulson... forget about the sears chick, she tured around to be weird. She's an oddball, one of the weirdest that I have met.

As for a coffee shop... well... we don't have any of those on campus, I go to a community college, it's really small. We do have a cafeteria, and like I said, I don't have anything in common with her, that I know of anyways... any other suggestions?

 

[tontod]

Just ask her what classes she's taking, if she likes them or not. What her academic plans are, stuff like that. That should get you started at least. If all goes well, things will fall in place.

 

[KingNothing]

Did you mean "elusive"? "Illusive" would mean "like an illusion".

Then again, maybe that's what you meant.

 

[hpkeeper]

Tontod, am I supposed to just ask her as she's walking by? you know stop a random stranger as they walk by and ask them what classes they're taking?

 

[kami]

1. Go up to her.
2. Smile (genuine smile, not creepy smile).
3. Say "Hi."

After that it's so easy. Sadly many of the people reading this probably don't realize this

You aren't there to use some cheesy pick up line like you said, it's just a friendly hello to another person. Forget that she's a hot girl, just think of her as a person. Things can go from there. SO many guys treat girls as another species, then we get threads like this (no offense). Just say HI damnit!

 

[Cyberian]

You could always just lick your eyebrows as you walk past her.

 

[ElFenix]

"hi, want to go out?"
"but i don't even know you"
"well thats what the date is for"

how could she say no?

 

[hpkeeper]

I fear that the smile and Hi won't be enough, I do that to like everyone and just walk past them. I'm sure she does the same.... I need a conversation starter.

 

[Mucman]

If you can go up to her and say HI, I will be in awe of your super powers! Good luck! I've seen way to many cute girls at school that I know I will never approach...

 

[DougK62]

Step 1- Next time you see her smile - then walk right past her.
Step 2- Run up behind her and push her down.
Step 3- Offer to help her up, saying "dang! some dude just ran into you and flew around the corner - are you OK?"

Works every time

Well, then, just start by saying hi. Just say you've seen her around, start with small talk like the weather, etc. You gotta draw up the courage to talk to her, otherwise you'll just be wishing you had said something.

I'm no expert, in fact, I'm pretty pathetic. But here's something...

you: hey, how's it going?
her: hi (or some noise)
you: you know, I see you every time I go to my history lecture. what class are you coming from?
her: (tells you what class)
you: oh ya? how is it?
her: (likes/hates it)
you: (if she hates it) hah, how come?
(if she likes it) is that your major?
her: (blah blah blah... at this point you can nod your head and think about her nekkid)
you: oh btw, my name is johnny
her: I'm cindy
you: hey, where are you going right now?
her: (food/drinks, home, class, some errand)
you: (food/drinks) perfect, I was getting hungry (even if you're not hungry at all). mind if I come w/ you?
(home/class) ah, I'll see you around
(errand) (ask her about it)

Next time you see her, you'll probably feel more at ease about asking her out. And she will probably feel more comfortable actually going out with you. If she mentions that she has a bf when you ask her out, then you've got a variety of responses:

1) oh, sorry
2) so? (what's your man gotta do with me?)
3) that's ok, I don't mind.
4) what? oh, you thought I was asking you out on a date? I wanted to go in a group.
5) cry

That's getting a bit ahead. The approach doesn't always go smoothly...

you: hey, how's it going?
her: get the hell away from me, you creepy! what makes you think I'd be interested in you!

If any of this actually works, you have to hook me up with her cute friend. One thing I've noticed... cute girls travel in packs!

This is kind of related. There is a hot girl that I always see at the gym. Practically everytime I see her, there's a guy trying to hit on her. It's pretty funny to watch. She always seems really friendly too. Heard from a friend that she's a playa! Gotta watch out for the HOT ones!

Start with hello.... howeve, perhaps you'd want to stalk her first(in a good way). Without her knowing... else it's kinda creepy. Follow her and see what her day is like and perhaps you can catch a good moment to introduce youself.

So what's your opinion...? BTW... I've been in the ATOT for a while... I know the rules... and I don't have any pictures as of yet, but the more you help me out, the more likely an aquisition of a picture.

Get a digital cam, snap snap, wink wink... is that enough help?

There's always the potential boyfriend factor.... what do I do with that?

Easy, if there's a boyfriend, you shouldn't be the 'other guy'.

Too bad about the Sears girl. But you shouldn't be involved in the first place cause of her deranged boyfriend.
