hey, i'm planning on asking a guy out that i like. we've flirted before, but never really hung out one-on-one...i'd like to hang out with him one-on-one. Not necessarily a date, but to get to know him better before asking him on a date. I'm nervous about asking him, cause i've never asked a guy to hang out one-on-one before. But i defintely know this is a guy i want to pursue... so i was wondering if someone could read the email before i send it-just to make sure it's good. thanks -T

email:

Hey! Long time no see! How are you? I'm going to be at your school for an IHSA horse show, and I was wondering if you'd like to come to the show with me or grab a bite to eat? I'd really like to see you :)

Also, should i add in other things that are going on in my life-such as major things that have happened since we last spoke (but still leave stuff to talk about when i see him). such as my school football games we used to watch (he's going back to school in the fall, but it's pretty close)...cause i feel kinda strange that the email's so short and so to the point...thanks

I would leave it as is. You don't want to overwhelm him with information, especially since you don't REALLY know him. Send that message to him (with a phone number where you can be reached as well) and if you get no response, you know your answer.

I hope he does meet up with you!
