How you asked her out

Anyone care on sharing any stories of how you asked ladies out over the years? ones that went wrong would be interesting too. Here's mine

Once walked into a hair salon intending to swoop a girl who worked there off her feet. I remember walking towards the salon several times and then folding, because I didn't know how I'd pull it off. Eventually I worked up the courage and walked in. I then saw her, and she wasn't looking at me and I got so scared. Because she hadn't yet seen me, I thought to myself.. 'you can leave now because she won't have seen you'. We had very short awkward chit chat. She said she was busy and went upstairs. I remember telling myself, 'don't leave/give up so easily', which of course made the situation worse. I was then asked to leave

...so you didn't ask her out after all?

She said she was busy then ran upstairs and then you were asked to leave?.....That says stop stalking me you creep, I'm not interested in you, now go away.

That's right

Yeah, I know.. duh

Well if you want to be more successful stop doing that. The ladies are attracted to confidence.

So you open a thread about stories of how you asked girls out, and you post a story of how you did not ask a girl out. Makes sense.

The only girlfriend I had actually asked me out! Which means clearly she was utterly batshit insane, as it turns out that was true. She had a slew of disorders and that possibly points to only insane girls like me; you'd HAVE to be insane to like me!
