How do I....
| Wed, 08-30-2006 - 11:19am |
Hello all!!
I feel like a young school girl again. I have a crush!!! I just started Grad school, and there’s this guy in my class who is so cute and really nice. Anyway, I struck up a conversation with him, and he was very receptive. He talks to everyone, though, so there’s no way that I can assume that him talking to me was anything special. We talked about school stuff, so I didn’t find out any personal info about him. I wanted to ask him where he’s from (he has an accent, kind of French-sounding. Maybe he’s from Cote d’Ivoire, I don’t know). How do I find out, in a non obvious way, whether or not he’s married?? The reason I ask is because once, I saw him with this funny-looking ring (it didn't look like a wedding band) on that finger; however, he didn’t have it on when I talked to him yesterday. Any ideas?? If he isn’t married, where do I go from there? I'm not going to throw myself at the guy. I haven’t done this in a while. I’ve pretty much been in relationships for the past couple of years, so I haven’t really been part of the single scene for a while.
Any advice??

You can start by humming a chorus of "ALOUETTE" in class! ?
Seriously...why not bring up his accent and ask him what part of France his family lives in? And then listen to his response.
I'll bet you'll come up with a few more 'follow-up' questions once he tells you?
Good Luck!

Thanks for the reply.
Turns out, though, that the "funny looking ring" is actually a wedding band!!! I didn't even have to ask. He was wearing it again today, and a closer look told me that he's definitely off the market. D'oh!!! I was right after all. Oh well, at least I found out where he's from....Haiti.
Thanks.
