Sitting next to her? : Othor Games

» Tue Aug 07, 2012 5:32 pm

There's this girl who's been moved to my class and she doesn't really have any friends in this particular class, so I was thinking I should go and sit next to her.

Some might remember her from the thread I made a while ago entitled, "A strange situation..." she's the "The Hot one".

I'm seriously considering asking her out, I've never had serious ideas about asking girls out, but she is different, she's all I ever think about and I really want to ask her out.

But I don't know if she'll just tell me to leave, or whether she'll leave or if we will just sit in awkward silence.

I really need to know how to go about this.

Well, if things hit DEFCON 1, there's always the failsafe:

Most people are probably going to give you the good 'ol JAHO advice, and in this case it's really not bad advice. You'll never find out if you have a shot with her unless you do something. Doing nothing will just make you overthink the whole situation and that's never good.

Go sit next to her, try to talk to her during class and if you get the feeling that she likes you back; JAHO like a baws. (and then tell us how it went ^_^

You and your girl threads...

Do you know her already? Can't you just ask if it's okay for her if you sit next to her? It's not really that difficult. Just don't act creepy or anything.

Exorince brings up good advice. Overthinking things isn't good for the soul.

How many times have you heard JAHO around here, OP?

» Tue Aug 07, 2012 4:52 pm

I've noticed you exclusively make relationship threads. In your mind does BGSF stand for Brotherhood of Guaranteed Success with Females?

Anyway, JAHO. I don't know if that girl who you've been in love with for 13 years that lives in some other part of the country would approve though.

JAH...oh people beat me to it.

Just sit down, say hi and just let the coversation flow from there, be direct and decisive! If your unsure she's not gonna be interested

Didn't she already ask you to the prom? So I can't see why it would be a big deal in the slightest.

But what if I sit down and she literally ignores me the whole time. I'm not good with conversation at the best of times, let alone when I'm sitting next to her.

Sounds like that's the absolute worst thing that could realistically happen. If she does that, then you wont have to JAHO, eh?

Just go over to her and talk to her, at worst she will tell you to go away and at best you've got a new friend! I'm sure if she doesn't know anyone in the class she will be glad to talk to someone new.

I really need to know how to go about this.

Do what we all do in everyday situations, wing it! Good luck!

If she ignores you then the Hell with her, no since being friends with someone who's a stuck-up.

» Tue Aug 07, 2012 6:37 pm

Say hello then..

I have a lot of experience in overthinking simple stuff.

Say "Hi" as you're sitting down. That just leaves room for you to comment on things, and basically acknowledge the situation as things happen. If she ignores you, she's probably an aspie.

Then forget about it. Don't do it and move on. If you want it bad enough, JAHO. Otherwise, move on. You are only making yourself miserable, so stop. :turtle:

Where's Suffca and his JAHO?

Seriously this is true?

@OP, Yo bro... Ya dun no' need anymoor 'elp from these 'ere parts m'kay?

She is interested in you. Just talk. Slowly erode your inability to talk to girls, make conversation or whatever the problem is. How old are you? Let your other areas do a little less of the thinking and go with your gut. Just talk...

Just old_Andy her.

Seems to me like you've got pretty much nothing to lose. So, go sit near her, try to strike up a conversation and JAHO.

Worst case, she ignores you, laughs in your face, tells you to go away.

You'll still have lost nothing. So just go do it and stop thinking about it.

I feel panicked just imagining it in my head.

But I can't pull out. This is one of those things that I'll regret for the rest of my life if I don't do it.

Just old_Andy her.

This is now officially a thing. A thing we shall call JOAH. JAHO's big brother.
