I'd like to do this one right. Can anyone help me.
I got some helpful replies from here last time so I'll try again.
A girl comes into my work about once a week or every other week. The first time she came in I found out where she worked. We talked for a couple minutes, I made her laugh a little, and she left. The second time I found out she comes in often and we talked for another couple minutes. The third time I was too busy to talk so she left fast. The fourth and most recent time went well. I made her laugh again, we seemed to have a little in common, and I introduced myself finally.
When I was little I was in a class of 15 kids and anyone who had a crush on someone else was known fast and it was embarrassing. So I developed a very good knack for hiding that I like a girl (stupid I know). So today I still struggle with flirting. I can talk to any girl but getting it across to them that I am attracted to them is very hard. I'd have a better time hitting on a guy than a girl.......
So when next she comes in I'd like to tell her she's pretty (because I certainly think she is) but in a way that comes of natural not creepy. I'd like to ask her out but I want to do it in a way that is inviting not scary for her. Basically: I want to do this right so that if she says no it's all her; it's not something I did wrong, as I often seem to do. I was thinking of asking her to go shooting with me, my cousin, and her boyfriend (we're making this plan anyway). It's a nice outdoorsy group activity that's a lot of fun. I figure being in a group takes the pressure off, and I can find out right then if she's and out doors girl which would be just my type. FYI: I live in Arizona so shooting guns is pretty common for us.
Give me your opinions please. She and I are developing a nice rapport I think so I don't want to rush this but I don't want to dick around either. I want asking her out to be inviting and casual not forced and creepy. I think the latter is my tendency and I must break this if I hope to start having success.
