Additional info

I am acquainted with her brother who in fact goes to the same college as me.

 

[I.A.F.Y.B.]

ask about her, simple as that.

 

[trv26]

something more specific?

 

[amoka]

what do you expect from her? It seems like you have yourself a good friend on the other side of the screen.

 

[trv26]

Thanks for nothing guys.

Here's how it ended

...

Me

Me
Really? That's close!! I'd like for us to hang out sometime. What do u say?

Her
i say i dont really know u and thatl be a dumb ass idea cause u could be 129384 years old for i know

Me
fair enough.

Oh boy.

From this point of view it seems to go down hill.

Her fears are valid let her fear. Tell her

"Lol I could be. Our common friend must be really insane to be friends with someone as old as I and be football buddies with. You better have a talk to him about me. He should be warned. "

She is testing you. Don't be phased. It's natural.
Ask her by putting the ball on her court later with "so how would you like me?" if it's a positive reply, interest level is high enough for a casual meet up like "I going to be (common place you both can meet) on (weekend of your choice) it'll be a blast. You want to have fun, be there"

Hope that helped

 

[I.A.F.Y.B.]

I told you the answer and you didn't do it. Ask about her!!!

If you want specific answers now here they are: (live and learn)

When, she said she was from Iraq... Terrorist alert! lol j/k Ask her if she grew up there, if she speaks the language, what its like and other stuff.

Ask about her hobbies and sh!t. Things like that. After you get to know a little bit about her is when, you ask for her number or a date.

fair enough.

Me

But come on im a few years below 129384 . U can confirm that with X.

Her

next time im out with X u can come..........

Success!!! Seems like it was a test after all. However, don't like how she says "u can come" for some reason. Getting my fren to set up such an outing shouldn't be too difficult i think assuming no conflict of interests(I'm pretty sure there isn't).

And thanks for the good advice I.A.F.Y.B. and ZenModGod. Should have asked her about herself as advised and will do so next time i try this. Anyway all's well that ends well.

Any thoughts on how her IL might be btw? Seems a bit odd how easy this was.

 

[I.A.F.Y.B.]

Are you talking over the internet or in person?

If you are doing this over the internet there really isn't a way to see if she is interested. But, the fact she said you can come hang out with her is good enough.

 

[trv26]

Are you talking over the internet or in person?

Come on now....I'm hardly likely to be asking for advice halfway through a face-to-face convo. 'Twas on facebook. .
