I think you should be more aggressive with her. Have a couple bottles of liquid courage and you'll be fine;)

Okay another woman's point of view. :D

I think you sound absolutely adorable. Firstly, When people say they are shy, it usually means you are shy until you get to know them and you feel comfortable being yourself right?

Anyway, besides what another reply said, I think shy is wonderful. I am an outgoing extrovert, and I find shy guys wonderfully sexy, and it never loses it's appeal.

Also about the car door thing. Forget that. Women have changed. They don't take terribly much notice of that stuff. Okay, I do admit i like a door being opened for me, but not the CAR door, thats kind of ridiculous and try hard. So don't worry about that. The girl being hot and all, is probably over guys bending over backwards doing stuff like that.

But I do believe like everyone else that you have a chance!!!!!!!...you are definatley in!!!!

Be yourself!!!

If you feel like calling her, do it. I know I personally hate mind games, like "ooooo I'll call her in like 12 hours"....but then again, sometimes patience can be a virtue.

Always remember "it's better to regret something you did than something you didn't do". That what I always think.

Good Luck!!!!! Please keep me posted on how it all goes!!!!!

p.s I think it's cool you didn't make a move in the carpark. Sometimes that feeling of awkwardness is a good thing. Keeps you both on your toes. But I do really think she likes you!!!!!

Yes, I think you have a chance. You might even think about sending her flowers. Take it one step at a time, and don't try to rush things. Relax, have fun, and good luck. :D

Sounds like you have a good chance to me. You should definantly take her out again but you may want to let a couple of days pass or at least a little time so she doesnt see you as desperate. Good Luck to you!

The most obvious thing you should do, and I don't think has been mentioned yet is to BE YOURSELF. There was a reason that she liked you even though you're shy. I'm probably more shy than you, and girls think its cute (well some do anyway). I was in a similar position a while back, and I never did a freaking thing. Now, one and a half years later, I'm trying to figure out what I should do with this girl I was too shy to call but can't stop thinking about. Anyway, I got a hold of her through a mutual friend, and things might going in the right direction now. One thing is for sure though... Shyness is SUCK.

i will just say things from my own encounters:

don't start reading into things too much. some girls are just flirts and they want to lead you on

my best advice is to get to konw her for a little bit, and then like hint that you like her and see how she feels. then take it from there

good luck

To quote Teddy Roosevelt:

<< &quot;In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing. The worst thing you can do is nothing. &quot; >>


I don't know what the right thing is but I'm sure of the worst thing you can do.

Talk to her. Ask her questions about herself and listen to what she has to say? The cute shy thing is only going to take you so far. Remember that she is a person just like you. Aslo remember that sometimes it's the little things like open doors that make all the difference.

ok.. take my advice .. truss it..

you just met her and you're tryna go out wit her 3 days in a row???? slow down playa ... don't call her so often she already has one shadow and girls hate guys always on thier six..

just take it easy.. try to meet some other girls as well that way you won't be up on this one girl all the time..

how old are you????? no offence but if you're over 18 you've been spending too much time on the net and not enough time ON females :) ...
