this is in reference to my other thread...'GUY HERE...LADIES ADVICE NEEDED'

alright ladies, i made the move, shot the egg out of my butt, and asked the girl out...AND SHE SAID YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i had told you i sent her a card for her bday on friday. well, she sent me an email fri night, thanking me, and also saying she missed seeing me in the parking lot at work.

so, i took that as a sign of encouragement, and decided today was the day.

so, i didn't see her in the parking lot when i got back from lunch, so i waited in the guard shack at work (tv cams) and waited till she got there. i know, it sounds stalkerish

but i didn't want to do it through email or phone, i wanted to be a man and do it in person.

so, i saw her car come in, made my way to the parking lot, and saw her. she thanked me for the card, and we laughed a little bit. and then i said since i see you next to never, let's do lunch, and just go out and talk. she said she would love to!!!! so i told her i'd send an email with my cell, and she said she'd send me mine! i told her let's do it sometime this week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you know, i could actually go out with her and not like her. but, i'm so glad that i followed through, and this one had got me soooo rattled unlike any other girl. my friends couldn't believe my apprehension toward her. i don't have a problem getting dates, but there's just something about her that's a little diff't, and now i get to see first hand.

thanks for all your advice and encouragement! i'll let you know how it goes!!!!!!!!

That's great -just a minor suggestion - if you want her to feel like a lady on your date, make sure you don't use anything like that language you used in the first paragraph of your post. Only half kidding.

Well thank gawd!!!! You know what- maybe she's been waiting all along for you to ask her out face-to-face, which is a good thing. Nothing fuels a fire like a little challenge (wink, wink).

Good luck and let us all know how things turn out as they happen!

So happy, so happy!!!

I'm glad for ya. I'm sure she was waiting for you to make your move.

Finally, a man who knows what he wants and goes after it. I knew you could do it.

Good goin' growl!! See? You just never know unless you try.


I agree with Deena though - if you take her to lunch just make sure you don't take her anywhere that they serve eggs...


Keep us posted and let us know how the date goes!
