Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
You mean during the dates, right?Originally posted by iMat

Yeah, but let's say you live in different areas. You have to get to her, or have her get to you.Originally posted by idiot_boyfriend

I can't think of anything better than just walking. Actually, a walk in the park would be a great idea.
Well, in that case, I think you might have to ask your parents to give you a ride to wherever you're going....Originally posted by iMat

And let's say you accomplish that, what if you don't live near a large park.
