I finally saw her and wasn't nervous at all but I couldn't think of something to say in order to ask her out.

That and my mind went blank when thinking of a response to say if she had refused. I think too much.

Haha, the classic choke.

It's alright man, happens to all of us. Just think of a good plan for the next time you see her. It seems like improv isn't your thing.

3 second rule

Just start talking to her in 3 seconds. No if/ands/or buts. Wait for an opening, if you play your cards right you can probably get her to say "we should so do such and such!"
So suppose you ask her if she wants to get some dinner.
a) she says yes
b) she puts you down gently. She's never going to say "ew get the fuck away from me". She'll probably say something that you'll be able to respond to, not just "NO."

Actually the best way to fuck up is to plan stuff, spur of the moment is much better for meeting girls or else you will psyche yourself out, which is what happened to stealthy over here. I mean plan a meeting but don't plan out whats going to happen!

hm i planned what i wanted to say. learned it by heart and followed the guideline i had set myself. didn't work as flawless as i had hoped but definitely not worse than just standing there and going *blank* -> *next time*.
if you have that creative touch and can just play with the situation it is ofc preferable.. but in my case "making sure" gave me more security.

the hardest thing is always the beginning (i'm feeling that very personally atm though in a different context.. 3 week learning phase ahead (8h/day) and tl.net/youtube/othershit is just too tempting)

QFT I was going to write some ranting tranquilizer too (from my limited experience ;/) but I actually read part of his blog and the fact he's 1985.

I don't know what to wish - Good Luck or no gl just Pure Skill ;D? I guess both will do

Dont think of how to respond to a let down. Just respond naturally. If you concentrate to much on that then you will bitch out and not do it.

Like someone said, just go for it. If you let it hang out like that. If you let it hang out like that, and you over think it, it will make the situation worse. Be natural, and slightly confident.

Don't worry that you choked. It happens to everyone, including myself. Although, I haven't had to ask a lot of girls out. I've only asked 2 girls out in my lifetime, I'm 19. The first turned me down, which led me to ask the girl of my dreams out.

We've been going out for 2 years now

you are brave man, braver than thou. if you ask'eth her and get rejected, fret not. for the damsel is a wench and a whore! refer to my blog titled "fucken whores". But i have alot of respect for you wanting to take a chance and go for it. I think i am 1 for 6 thus far. Dont think too much about it, you will have plenty of time to think when either she says yes or no. [joke] Good luck, im sure you will get a date or find out shes a whore. either way, its progress.

that sucks tt

one thing ive noticed is that you dont even have to say anything special to a girl, just walk up to her and say whatever bullshit and she will not really listen to what you say but check you out

go from there

I've honestly never, ever asked a girl out. Luckily I haven't had to; they ask me. Oh, once I asked a girl if she wanted to upgrade our friendship, does that count? heh heh

I am terrified of rejection, to be honest. The more I like her, the more terrified I am, too!

I've seriously contemplated asking out fat chicks just for practice. Anyways, good luck to you sir. I'm not qualified to dish out advice on this, but Kennegit has some nice blogs.

Oh man you're doing yourself a disservice then.

If you get asked out all the time and your fear of rejection isn't being handled it will just fester, and then when you want to ask a girl that hasn't approached you you might not be able to.

Force yourself to. Rejection's really not that bad.

Also if you do it on fat chicks they will not say no, so that's not a good practice of feeling what it's like to be rejected and accepting that it can happen once in a while.
