It may be a slightly awkward comparison but is probably more accurate than the original saying. I can't speak for you, but I certainly have a penis, and am not a spherical green vegetable. Since the Valkyrie beats both of them does that mean im supreme? | ||

The only times I've ever had any success in this department just kind of happened. The trick isn't not trying too hard, it's not giving a shit whether or not you're trying too hard. Don't put on a mask because you'll have to wear it all the time when you're around her, and you might find that she's not worth it. | ||

Ask her out! +1 to that, but I actually think asking her for a "co-op campaign" together might not be the best idea for starters. Maybe you should get to know when she has a break or when her shift ends, and chat about the things common between you two (this can include games) - and naturally lead to a dinner and a movie, or something similar like that. I'm not an expert on this, but I honestly can't imagine why she would refuse at this point. It was a bright sunny day, the clouds were swirling foams identical to the whip creams in my coffees. Yes, plural, for I have bought one for myself and one for the young dame at the counter. I'd get her a smoothie, but it would be more smooth if I brought her something warm and delicious, uplifting as I go to "uplift" some weights, hoping her eyes would run astray in my direction instead of the cash register or the smoothie machines. As I walked in, the doors slid open, yanking any cool and suave confidence I had. My legs began to jitter and my mind was trying to tug me back outside, to abandon all hope and desire to deliver the drink and the opening statement. I fought hard, menaced my mind that I would not delight it with an education if it fucked me over on this one. Steps forward, I finally saw her: hourglass figure angled over the counter, color of hair that would probably suit a young Caucasian (let's go with a vanilla blond). I made sure to wear my Portal 2 shirt, intentionally ripping out the sleeves to further impress my developing biceps, a redundancy since I am going to the gym anyways. Nonetheless, I hopped on over to her side, spread my elbow onto the counter slyly and winked. "I got you something" as I slide the coffee towards her. She didn't say much but smiled in appreciation as I followed-up: "I'm no Cave Johnson, but how about you and me in the Enrichment center". She looked away: was she blushing? Embarrassed? Shit... did I fuck up again? I tried to peak to the left of her, see what she was doing. I muttered inquisitively: "Are you still there?". She giggled, brushed her hair back and slap her hand on mine: You, me, Portal 2 co-op tonight? I almost jumped for joy! My heart pounded! Finally, I can do some tests with a companion that isn't a fucking cube with 0 personality, but somehow gets all the attention of the males, females and robots! Wasting no more time trying to figure if this was truly happening, if this was the reality of it all, I inquired her personal information: "What's your Steam ID? What time do you want to meet?" She scribbled down her phone number while saying: "I'll be on later tonight, I have to pick up some potatoes." Shit, I didn't quite catch her name, I turned around, ashamed as if I just robbed a bank and right before my mouth let loose the question, she said: "Just call me GLaDOS." | ||

For example: Hey do you want to hang out sometime? vs Hey, do you want to go out to X restaurant on Friday night? I think it would be a lot of fun. If you pick a location and time, it's easier for her to say yes. If the time doesn't work out, just reschedule to like Saturday, ask her when would work best for her. Simply stating you think it would be a lot of fun gives her a reason to go with you. Using the word "want" is assertive, it implies if you say yes you would make me happy by fulfilling my request. "I would like" is too passive, it means its ok for you to say no. "I need" is too aggressive, it'll make her feel like she doesn't have a choice which will make you look too controlling. Also it's best you gather your courage and just ask. It's better to say I tried and failed then I didn't try at all. | ||

 Don't try to act any particular way, the most important thing is to be comfortable and talk to her like any one of your friends. GL HF | ||

Also, just be yourself Don't try to act any particular way, the most important thing is to be comfortable and talk to her like any one of your friends. GL HFIf you do it the way a normal person would none of this matters: Step 1: Get confidence. If you already have confidence(you probably don't btw), more can't hurt. Step 2: Approach the seemingly magical entity with her fabled female parts. Step 3: "Hey want to go out with me sometime?" (*Pro-Tip: Avoid awkwardly staring at her beforehand. And if you followed step 1 properly you should be able to formulate this sentence with ease. If you can't, celibacy is cool too, bro) Or what Torte described, that works swimmingly. | ||

Some of your better work there Torte. I give you **** Artemis, you muscley man, you super sexy stud, you beautiful bouncing brawny beast...(too much?) Welcome back. I hope you don't mind that we sort of hijacked your blog... How is it hanging? Left is more aerodynamic I hear, better breathability. In addition sinister is sexy... Remember this for the next gym journey. It is vital information. Good luck...(Too easy)...God Speed...(Ethically inconsistent being an atheisist and all.) Um... Live long and prosper...No...Fuck it Give Long and Fuck her!  Just kidding, cheers mate, wish you the best. | ||

If you have a plan for a date, and just talk to her you may get shy trying to ask her out, but you will have no option but to ask her. Good luck More detail: 1. Be normal; say hello, don't creep her out by telling her that you noticed the wasn't there when you were there last. 2. Ask her out; don't be too specific or you'll seem as though you've been planning this (i.e. don't do what Kutsuki posted), but be specific enough so that she knows it's a date e.g. "do you want to grab a coffee sometime?" 3. Contrary to others' advice, I would say that whatever you do don't ask if she wants to play games with you on your first date - you're suggesting the wrong thing. Be normal and you'll be fine. Don't think about it too much, just plan your first move (see point 2). There's really no reason for her to say no unless she's not single because she showed interest before. | ||

. After I got a smoothie from here again, and only said hi, my order, and thank you, then walked out. God damn it. I also noticed her looking at me from the reception desk as I was working out (is that good?). Next time I HAVE to talk to her more, get her name, AND ask her out for coffee or w/e. | ||

You've got like...3 options here. a) You don't ask her out and regret it. b) You ask her out, she says no, oh well - life goes on. c) You ask her out, she says yes, you win. Just do it! You want to know something else? You'll get more praise here for trying and failing, or trying and succeeding, than you will for not trying at all. | ||
