Hmm... my impulse perhaps would be to put a little something in her student mailbox (there's an area where we all have a little slot where professors return tests and things like that), although that's a call i'd have to make by this weekend, so i could pick something up. Next week is finals week, and the token would go missed at that point.

I mean something small, like a candy cane or a flower of some kind, possibly with a non-creepy note attached to it? Or is the entire concept turbo creepy to begin with?

"Turbo creepy"? Not really. A little creepy though but you're the one who's there.

Just don't send her a link to this thread

I think it's too soon for that. You were the one who proposed coffee, you were the one who proposed the numbers, I think she definitely gets that you like her. If you do something else now, you'll be at 3-0 and that's a bit too much. If this is ever to become something, it needs to be more even. She needs a chance to decide to make an effort too.

Its adorable.. When you are like 12.. Try to find something to do in your area.. Like an art exhibition, music playing in a cafe, new waffle place opening.. Mention it and say: "You should come with me".. Don't worry about any scores.. Thats silly.. Her saying yes to the coffee is already a point for her.. I would give her 10 points for that..

But first i would suggest you scout your area on cafe's, bars, restaurants, cinemas., midgetgolf, etc. Cause, not trying to be mean, would you actually have a date idea if she came to you right now and said: "lets go out together tonight"?

-edit- maybe there is a after finals party...

There is, the evening of that Friday. Happy hour, hosted by student government.

Plus i know she'll still be around by then, since one of her classes has a final on that Friday.

Worth a shot at any rate.

Yes excellent, great chance to socialise a bit without too much pressure.. if you're balsy enough you could say later on the evening: "wanna grab something to eat" which seems to come from a more natural way of how a day goes and puts less presure on it then a "date"... but thats something you'll have to decide at that point..

Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Especially since we live in the same part of the city, could be as simple as a ride together home. With, perhaps, a stopover somewhere.

I wouldn't do the leaving something in her mailbox thing, Khan. It is indeed a bit creepy, and corny. You do those things when you are already together.

The party is your best chance. A bit of alcohol helps, too (don't get wasted, though...).



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

Fah, she didn't show up to either of the events today (the end-of-semester banquet or the "international" student potluck, which was really just a hangout for some people at school as most of the folks there were American. Explains her lack of attendance at the latter, none of her circle was there, a fair few of them were at the banquet, though, but not her).

Next week, i guess.

But you have her phonenumber.. There is no Harm sending a text message to her: " Hey are you at the banquet?" And when she send a message like: "No, why?" You could have said.. "Just looking for more interesting people"

Do you even have a smartphone capable of whatsapp?
