    Got an answer, in the form of a question. Took a week for it... hmm... this is weird...
    Well what was the question?
    "What kind of a date?"
    you should respond with "I'll take awkward conversations for a thousand, Alex"

    if she responds with "you've found our daily double!" then you know it's good to go.

    Tell her it is a regular date but if you see some of your single or married lady friends you are going to invite them over to the table. 
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Well, should we make up our own questions until we find out what she said?  I'll list a couple.

    "New phone, who dis?"

    "What took you so long to ask?"

    "Can you give up listening to the band KISS?"

    Read the thread more closely pumpkin :) 

    Ha, sorry, I hadn't refreshed the page with the latest posts!

    :pensive: Hmm. Well, did you answer? I'm not sure if this thread has turned you off taking any advice here forever and ever, lol, but if I were you I'd just reply with what your plans were. I.e. "A dinner and movie date"... or whatever you were thinking about doing. That is clear, and she'll be forced to say yes or no. Finally.
    Just add...”and maybe breakfast if things go well”

    WHY HASN'T EDDIE VEDDER WRITTEN A SONG ABOUT THIS KIND OF MOMENT IN LIFE! 
    In Hiding? 

    Lucky Ace knows the feeling

    "All I wanna do is talk to you and maybe go out, and form some kind of relation"

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjOc5FCUtmY
     You're not going to send that to her, right? We don't want you to end up an old cat lady with a penis.

    No worries, the cat home won't respond to my email about helping them out with a cat or two. I think my mistake was to add an ending paragrapha bout Peter Criss in my email .

    She's really not rude or anything. I hope I have not made people think off her like that.

    I would think it's too late for that. If she's still in the friend zone and he's not, and she knows it, the friendship has already changed no matter what her answer is. I've obviously got a lot of experience with male/female friendships, and once one person starts crushing on the other person, things kind of have to change. S_C chose the only reasonable (mature) next step in asking her out, no matter what her answer may be.
    But S_C, yes, I do think she's being rude, but I'm not suggesting I think she's a bitch or anything like that. I assume she is a good person if you're into her! :) Obviously an answer does have to be given here, and since she asked the question anyway, there seems to be no alternative anyhow. The cat's already out of the bag, lol.

    The dating game has become something that has surpassed my methods. Nowadays, you have to have facebook, instragram, snapchat, etc and hunt the person down on those platforms and send dumb messages back & forth for weeks, if not months before even considering hanging out in person.  I remember when that used to be called stalking.  Now it's the norm.  And face to face interaction or introducing yourself/asking out in person is considered "creepy."  Do things the old-fashioned way and you get laughed at to your face. What the fuck?
    Thank God I’m out of the dating game. This sounds awful. 
    This thread is only cementing my beliefs that I will never again be in the dating game. Potentially romantic relationships should be a bit more 'sacred' than a text - and I don't think that someone is a flower carrying grandpa because they believe in face to face communications. Mcgruff is younger than me and I'm a contemporary of the band - are they flower carrying grandpas? If so - that's what I would prefer. 

    Are we going to start calling people old if they think that speaking to people or using their actual identifying information to communicate is a good thing? I'm not gonna start snapchatting people, I'd feel ridiculous doing so, and if that means I never have a date again, well I can buy myself flowers and my son will have children some day, in the future. Many years in the future. I guess if we could have phone sex back in the day, people could have snapchat sex nowadays. I remember sex, I think.    :get_outta_here:

    If you ask for advice - please be nice to the people who are giving it to you. Especially the women, even if we are decrepit phone number, face to face flower  lovers. :how_interesting:
    With your rules an app like Tinder would never work, because you communicate through the means of written text to eachother. before deciding to meat up.

    And by your rules blinddating would never work, because the date is set up without this face to face communication that is vital.

    There is not anything more sacred in going to someones front door and ask their father if one could take their daughter to the movies and be home by 11, compared to asking someone you know well by the means of a message on messanger if she would like to go on a date on halloween.

    And I don't know if you missed this - but the date would still be face to face communication, just like it has been hanging out with her as a friend - we will not talk to eachother through World of Warcraft. 

    And so, teens today don't sit and talk on the phone - instead they send eachother pictures and videos through out the day on snapchat. Which means they have more communications with eachother than you guys did in the 1900s with your telegrams. A picture says more than a thousand telegrams sent by t he place next to the saloon.  

    There is nothing weird with talking to someone using text. And there is nothing wrong with asking out someone using text.

    :)
    Whether intentional or not, your use of meat when referencing Tinder is hilarious. :lol:
    In a thread filled with pretty funny thoughts and responses, I find this to be top notch.

    Nobody else commented? 

    Just caught up on the thread...pretty funny responses.
    I actually do not think she is rude and think she probably had a good sense of humor.  She didn't ask anyone to send her a text asking her out on a date.  What is a person supposed to do?  Be inquisitive, perhaps?
    (And likely, she is afraid you are inviting her to play MarioKart in the basement.)

    And so, teens today don't sit and talk on the phone - instead they send eachother pictures and videos through out the day on snapchat. Which means they have more communications with eachother than you guys did in the 1900s with your telegrams. A picture says more than a thousand telegrams sent by t he place next to the saloon.  

    There is nothing weird with talking to someone using text. And there is nothing wrong with asking out someone using text.

    Whether intentional or not, your use of meat when referencing Tinder is hilarious. :lol:
    In a thread filled with pretty funny thoughts and responses, I find this to be top notch.

    Nobody else commented? 

    Just caught up on the thread...pretty funny responses.
    I actually do not think she is rude and think she probably had a good sense of humor.  She didn't ask anyone to send her a text asking her out on a date.  What is a person supposed to do?  Be inquisitive, perhaps?
    (And likely, she is afraid you are inviting her to play MarioKart in the basement.)
    It's not the question that's rude. It's the number of days it took her to respond, lol.
