PhuturePriest Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 It got you to come back didn't it? ;P Same questions Seems legit. Although (and yes, I do realize that this may be difficult given the circumstances) you could try and see if you guys can hang out sometime before then. Oh you! Does she have a date for the wedding? Are you her date for the wedding? If the answer to both of these questions is no, then I'd get on that post-haste. No, we cannot see each other before then, though we would both like to. I don't really see the need to ask her. We're not involved in the wedding in any way, and we technically invited ourselves. We're going to meet at the wedding, then straight after leave to have dinner with her friend because there are tons of guests and we technically invited ourselves so we can't eat at the reception, and then come back and dance for a while, though I will unfortunately have to leave before it's over because it's far away and my sister is pregnant and doesn't even want to go. The only thing that has finally convinced her was telling her I would help pay for fuel. Thus, I will get about an hour of dancing if I'm lucky, but that's cutting into telling her how I feel about her, so even less than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 You should walk to her house barefoot, and profess your love to her with a heartfelt song played on the accordion, or possibly autoharp. That shows real dedication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(The scene this link opens up on) No, actually. All my friends are girls, and I talk to them all the time. I've never been nervous around a woman in my life. In fact, I've always been more comfortable talking to girls rather than guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though you guys invited yourselves, you could ask if you could meet up ahead of time and accompany her to the wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, that doesn't make sense. My sister is driving me. Abandoning her to meet up with Kate just so she can drive me to the location my sister is going isn't logical. We'd probably be following my sister there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's totally a way to make this work but just forget it. I can forsee me getting as much progress in this as I would getting Red to like ponies.

brianthephysicist Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 Find some way to meet her so you can escort her to wherever you guys end up going for this thing. Although it may be nice to do so, it doesn't necessarily have to be her house, but pretty much anywhere that's not trashy where you can meet her. Even if you meet and drive the rest of the way in separate cars, you guys can arrive together and you would actually be able to escort her in and she'll be grateful for her special friend standing by her side, because even at joyous events like weddings, people still sometimes get weird vibes or unsure of themselves when they show up alone. Plus you get the right to buy her a corsage (wrist flowers - but go simple, don't out-do the bride or bridal party) and tell her how pretty she is without being a creeper. Just don't abuse that or you will become a creeper lol. Also, a note on actually being at the wedding. Accompanying her as her date doesn't mean you have to be glued to her elbow or anything like that, or even that she or you aren't allowed to dance with other people there. If this is the kind of date you're looking for, you two need to specifically talk about that and agree on it beforehand, and I wouldn't even recommend that to be a good idea. But even though you're not glued to the elbow and sometimes you or she may be dancing with other people, it's your responsibility to keep an eye on her. If you like dancing and she doesn't, that's fine; go dance for a bit, but don't leave her sitting at the table for 30 minutes at a time. Just be aware of her at all times, but don't smother her. Find the rhythm that suits you two, because the rhythm that you two will have is different from any other couple. You can look to other couples for ideas, but always make it your own. I feel like that was really inarticulate but I hope it helped or something. I'm gonna go to bed now. Kbye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like that was really inarticulate but I hope it helped or something. I'm gonna go to bed now. Kbye. I'll have to contemplate this. She actually lives just outside of town in the country, so I can't really meet her at her house, so perhaps I could meet her at a spot and then go to the wedding with her (Though my sister may tell me that's stupid and not let me, so be prepared for that). The corsage sounds over-the-top and creepy, so I'm going to avoid doing that. As for dancing, I wouldn't ask her to just dance with me anyway, but I'll be one of the few guys she actually knows there, so we'll likely dance quite a bit. Also, she loves dancing, though she doesn't really know how, which is perfect because I'm being trained to be a professional ballroom dancer, and we agreed that I would teach her there.
