So be it! I wouldn't mind having her as a friend. It's just i don't want to make an ass out of myself.

Pics 2 and 3 are the best. Most natural representations.

Yeah, I know she's a very attractive girl... but what the hell do I talk about??? it's rough because i barely know her - i'd prefer going out with a group of friends and doing something fun since there's less pressure on me. But 1 on 1 brunch? i'm terrified!

here are somet things most women could talk about for hours:

xxxx shopping and clothes
home and family
career/ambitions/goals
travel
xxxxxxxhealth/fitness

those topics are so big you can stay busy for hours and hours and hours

OK, I'll go the career/ambitions route with a dash of my travel plans thrown in since I don't know jack about clothing and my physique is testament to the fact that health and fitness are topics I have no right to discuss

thanks.. this is helpful

you're in new york rite? take her to five points for brunch, its on lafayette, near great jones. best brunch in the city, and the interior alone would make her jump your bones, and its relatively cheap

is that in SoHo? that's right by my office I think - I might just do that... To be clear, I don't want her to jump my bone after this one non-date... I want her to be willing to hang out with me again when I'm in my element (I do well in bars and in groups, not one on one like this)..

You said you met her in professional settings right? Talk about those and if you click it'll branch out into other things naturally.

Not really a YAGT thread but a question about social ettiquette, I guess.

Not a close friend by any stretch of the word, but we've kept casual conversations going and, yes, I find her very attractive and have a bit of a crush on her.

Then, after being bored and feeling like a wuss, I decided to email her, saying that we should hang out to just catch up and such. She replies saying that we should do brunch...

Now, I don't usually get nervous but I'm feeling anxious. No, I don't think this girl has any feelings for me - she's way out of my league and she doesn't really know me. I just don't want to make an ass out of myself. Any suggestions? Should I just flake out since I'm so nervous?


"pics added, as requested"

So where in the hell are the pics OP?!

Might as well just "flake out" as you have already blown your opportunity by posting a YAGT on AT. Then again, this is definitely not the first time you have had a crush on some so-called actress. Hell, a search of your username should return hundreds of them if not thousands.

She's cute! Chances are good that she finds you attractive, since you're getting brunch and barely know this girl. Well done :thumbsup:
