NO! dont email, at least not yet. first, start dreaming about her 24 hrs a day. really imagine how perfect life would be with her. also reminisce about that time she accidentally touched you as she was walking by. now, you cant very well send her an email without knowing if she already has a bf. so, you need to google (and use other sources) to find out everything you can. look for blogs, aim screennames (so you can scope out her profile and away messages), and anything else that can give you an upper hand. even though there is no way you would call her before the email phase of the romance, getting her number is preferable. that way when she calls, you can have it programmed into your cellphone and answer it by saying "heeeeeeeey girlsname"! she will love it.

so far you have done the right thing by asking us first. this way you at least have a chance of *maybe* getting stuck at home.

only after you have done all your "homework" should you start drafting your emails. and i say drafting because you really need to put a lot of thought into them. you really want her to know how you feel about her, so dont be shy. let her know how much you have been thinking about her and the connection you felt with her back in the day. she will dig this. if you can throw in any personal information she wouldnt expect you to know, go for it. it will only impress her and flatter her that you care so much about her.

now when she gets your initial email, she will be really embarrassed. not because of your advances, but because it is likely a dream come true for her and she doesnt know how to react. so, if you dont hear back from her in 3 hours, you should definitely follow up with AT LEAST one more email.

i know this seems like a lot of work, but she obviously is worth it. be prepared to spend a lot of money... like they say, nothing worth getting is easily gotten. and remember, the more you build her up in your head, the more rewarding the romance and your marriage and yes (SEX) will be.

keep us updated.

Is it just me or is HardcoreRobot saying I should stalk her? Honestly I think that would creap her out more than me just asking her out to coffee.

And honestly a relationship including intercourse is really not so much on my mind as it is a longshot for us to even get into a relationship and the odds get worse from there to be a romantic relationship.

I mean I know where she lives and where she works. I've even considered going to the restruant where she works and "bumping" into her but the likeyhood of bumping into her is fairly small considering I don't know what times or days she works or if I get a diffrent waiter/waitress.

I did that, but she was married.

Go for it though. The worst that could happen if you ask her out is exactly the same as the best that could happen if you don't ask: You don't go out with her.

Edit: I should note that I just called the girl up. Don't do anything crazy like stalking or anything, just call her.

HardcoreRobot...are you actually me from 5 years ago sending an message forward through time?

OP: On second thought, perhaps you should just masturbate to a fantasy of getting married to the girl and then retreat back into the hellhole that is your existence....having accomplished nothing at all.

dude, just contact her, and just think of her as a good MALE friend for a second, what would you do if you want to reunited with a long lost male friend? just because this is a chick that has a nice pakcage that you, you are acting all crazy! just call her and be her friend, everyone can use a friend, male or female.

Email her, see if u get a reply, if u do, and get on well enough then ask her out. If u don't do anything, u'll only regret it later in life when she becomes a top underwear model !!

just get in touch and ask if she wants to catch up on high school. she'll get the hint. if yes, take your time, if no, leave it at that.

Go for it... email her, tell her:
hello

how you ended up with her email address

it made you think of her, you haven't seen her in two years and while you didn't get to chat with her much, you miss those few times you did get to talk to her and regret that you didn't talk to her more often

ask her out for coffee or something casual
