<p>I like dcmoose's advice. I'd use a less cocky way of delivering the same speech, but that's just my style.</p>
<p>I'm with dcmoose, dont do the email, don't be friends, hint at hanging out sometime, exchange numbers etc.</p>
<p>I think the email comment was a sarcastic remark. At least I hope so.</p>
<p>A hybrid theory:</p>
<p>Say something like "I was just going out to get a coffee, would you like to come with me? My treat." Then, while you are out with her, be friendly but make it clear - but not overwhelming - that you are interested. Compliment her. Ask her what she's interested in. Then again, don't agree with everything she says necessarily. Make yourself sound interesting too. (That is, if you actually are interesting. Don't fake anything.) If she says no because she is busy, say "Maybe some other time." Then drop it. If she actually was busy, and wants to see you, she will bring it up.</p>
<p>-makes it look like you have a life on your own, not depending on her for fun/social life/coffee
-lets her answer however she wants (yes or no), not too much pressure on her to make a plan OR to go along with your specific plan
-lets her decide whether she wants to be "just friends" or more without making you look either like a doormat or like a jerk
-generosity is good - unless you are actually cheap. Then, don't do it. Actually, don't be cheap. The WORST thing you can do on a date with a girl is make her feel like she has to pick the cheapest thing on the menu.</p>
<p>Actually, the worst thing you could do would probably to reach across the table, pluck out one of her hairs, and start flossing with it. Believe it or not, girls are pretty forgiving and are most likely to give you at least a little bit of a shot unless you are totally boring, overbearing, or smelly.</p>
<p>In my experience, the people who seem the most confident/cocky are actually quite insecure (or quite stupid). True confidence is in the average.</p>
<p>if u see a hot girl in a class, u need to develop ur ego first.</p>
<p>u need to convince urself that u are superior, that u are a great and mighty lord who had just led a sucessful battle against the perfidious and putrid hosts of LUCIFER, LORD OF LEVIATHAN, the Great Serpent.</p>
<p>then, start participating in class and show ur intellectual greatness. </p>
<p>start to develop eccentric habits to attract attention. start bowing before entering the class, carry ur lucky rabbit's foot.</p>
<p>if u dislike the arrogant and stuck-up personality, there are the arduous traditional ways of asking her out. but this is so damaging to ur ego!! boy i cannot stand the shame of asking a girl out. i must be asked BY the girl..</p>
<p>You are failing at life.</p>
<p>It's a sad fact, that kind of far out attitude would work much better than being a wuss.</p>
<p>"But you don't know her at all. What are the steps you will take to get her to be your girlfriend?"</p>
<p>grow some balls and you wouldn't need to ask such dumb questions. wow.</p>
<p>dcmoose777 was pretty much on the ball.</p>
<p>just go up and talk to her. believe it or not, looks dont count for much as long as you are confident. relax, crack a joke or two, whatever. If she's interested in you, she'll show it, and if she does, get a phone number or see if she wants to hang out.</p>
<p>approaching a girl is half the battle. Judging by the tone of your post, i take it you don't do this kind of thing often, and if that's true, you'll probably screw this one up. Who gives a ****? You're in college. There are thousands of other girls. I used to have no luck with the womens, so i sort of gave myself a crash course in game. I started going out on blind dates (awkward, awkward blind dates) and chatting up girls i hardly knew. I got better.</p>
<p>Just work up some confidence, you'll be aight.</p>
