Yeah, its all good. Sometimes advice could be useful.

You have been slacking were is your next weird thread?

I didn't invent anything. Where have I said that I invented anything? I just told her straight up.

@slimebeast: don't know, and to be honest, don't care :P

You know, I never explicitly said this, but the reason I'm being so careful around the corners is because she likes anime, manga, and Japanese games. (I did say our interests match heavily though )

Since that stuff is so rare in girls, I even went about asking people, even though it's hardly the first girl I'm talking to.

I've not been doing anything notable and weird.

In regards to this stranger you met online: I would not worry about her at all. You should go and see a prostitute to gain more confidence or go to a bar or night club and pick up an easy drunk chick.

Don't think it'll be confience you gain for doing this.

I agree with many users.

Have your gay friend contact her friend back and say while he is not available he has the perfect match for her. Your friend could instigate a meet between you and her. it would probably be best if you , your gay friend, her friend and her all met together to hang out creating a situation where both you and her feel safe and secure. Within that hang out you could break the ice and find out if you two are actually compatible.

While Rol is right you can get away with a lot on FaceBook. Girls get hit on all the time on Facebook, they don't tend to get involved with everyone who contacts them. Even I myself a not so attractive male have been hit on by complete strangers on a few occasions, though all but one case I turned the girls down. The one case I didn't she realized I didn't own a car and it was all over.

Anyways I know female friends who have gotten very upset by guys trying to contact them through FaceBook. Apparently its called cyber stalking and my female friends didn't really like it. Its sort of creepy for a complete stranger to start messaging you unprovoked with an intent on going out with you. Its impersonal, FaceBook is a social networking site and that is one of the uses for it. However unlike a dating site girls and guys don't join FaceBook with the full intent of hooking up with a stranger. If you do decide to go this route and contact her through FaceBook see if her settings say she is looking for a relationship or friends etc...etc.. I'm not sure if that setting is still visable but it used to be you could see on someones profile if they were seeking relationships on a romantic or friend level. If her profile says friend and nothing more then messaging her may be a bad idea.

In the end I think your friend should bring the meeting into existence. Its the best way you could start the relationship without coming off as creepy or stalkerish. If you were to get her number or address and contact her yourself that would probably go over even worse then FaceBook could. Unless the girl has a fetish for stalkers.

Another option would be to actually stalk her, which is never a good idea. You could find a location you and her like to hang out at and hope to bump into her. If you do then you spark up a conversation, the upside to this is if you get a relationship going and tell her later on that you actually knew about her before bumping into her. It could come off as romantic , I know its sorta weird that it could be considered romantic. However if you told her to early she would see the obvious "You stalked her" and it wouldn't be considered romantic at all. Timing would be key if you took this option.

I myself when wanting to meet a girl I have never met before but am interested in. Always rely on my friends to connect us as usually their is a connection. Unfortunately I have never actually dated a girl because every time I am interested in a girl she is taken. On two occasions my friends were dumb asses and didn't tell me the girls had boyfriends I looked like a complete fool. On the other occasions I ended up becoming good friends with the girls though I say I have never been physically attractive and being a nerd didn't really have a logical shot with the girls I was interested in!

But the getting connected through your friend is your best option at a relationship whether it turns out to be romantic as you hope, or friendship which ended up being the case with me. Either way you benefit, but using FaceBook could come off as creepy, phoning or showing up at her house would be even worse. Intentionally bumping into her at a common recreation site could come off as romantic later on in the relationship however if she were to find out before you established a stable relationship it could be just as disasterous as phoning or showing up at her house.

Those options are all possible each with cons and some with pros. God speed and I hope you get a date with this girl make us VGChartz users proud!

I'll edit the OP so you guys don't type all this for nothing.
I sent her a massage on FB already, and now I'm just waiting on a reply. Telling me to gain confidence, etc etc etc is kinda useless now - read my prior posts on why I didn't straight up contact her right away, even though I can understand the sentiment. However, self-confidence is not something I frequently lack. It's just that I never had to go around meeting someone like that.

Well I see you already made your move, I hope things go well I outlined the different moves I would consider. I certainly wouldn't have gone with contacting her on FaceBook first. But I am interested in hearing your final outcome you should update this thread if and when you get your first date and again if your relationship actually succeeds after a while!

LOL.. why the f* are you giving him advice.. xD
