What did you do to make that obvious? Guys want to go out with girls who like them and are excited to be with them.<br /><br />Just because you felt you would want to out with him doesn't mean he got the message. He could be totally embarrassed about the awkward dancing.<br /><br />Your goal should be to eliminate all doubt--repeatedly.<br /><br />Some ideas: Ask him lots of questions about himself and compliment him for whatever you genuinely find worth complimenting. Find common interests and tout them. Smile. Move around a bit and adjust your hair, your necklace, your clothes, etc. Move closer to him physically. <br /><br />You could even specifically say, "I had a lot of fun tonight. I'd love to get together another time. If you want to look me up, here's my phone number." Do this with eye contact, smiling, and genuine interest. Bonus points if you can touch his hand or shoulder or something while doing this.<br /><br />While dating, I asked a lot of girls out, and totally believe that is the Boys' responsibility. But girls who specifically said they had a good time and would like to get together again, I would generally ask out again. <br /><br />Others, I sometimes wondered if they were just being nice to put up with me.<br /><br />You can do a lot of things to show you like a guy without actually taking over the leadership role in the relationship.Strong Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03397861817336193206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4884411530533380629.post-14273631137420161972012-02-17T10:14:32.055-06:002012-02-17T10:14:32.055-06:00AHH I'm sorry I'm so bad about replying to...AHH I'm sorry I'm so bad about replying to comments! <br /><br />MM - awww I <3 Geeks!! :) I'm so glad you have each other! <br /><br />Dee - Thanks!

I was one of those girls who was a total wallflower and never got noticed in high school, barely even a flirt. I thought there was no hope! But in college, when I was least expecting it, someone came along. I know it's frustrating to hear that but I'm sure you'll find someone, you're young! Actually, most of my college friends are still single and love it that way, there aren't rules as to when you have to find someone :) These days, many people don't get married until their late 20s.Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01839475326755424479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4884411530533380629.post-79952404427335887532012-02-09T09:28:31.085-06:002012-02-09T09:28:31.085-06:00JJ, I'm a great believer in fate.

In fact, Susie looks at me (with relative frequency) after I've done or said something and just exclaims GEEK! In a very loud voice.<br /><br />Yet somehow I found Susie. And managed to make her think I am adorable as well. Your man is out there, and God will find a way to get the two of you in the same place at the same time.Mischief Managerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15253169726471899630noreply@blogger.com
