do you have feelings for her still?
See, up until the phone call yesterday, I had just kinda dismissed it as "first love, high school sweetheart" type stuff, just all in the past. I assumed people just about always had SOME sort of feelings for the first girl that they ever loved. Now that it's not 100% in the past, I don't really know what to feel.

I think my approach is going to be "if it happens, it happens" and just kinda go with the flow. I think she is looking for a comfortable situation (she just moved to a new town <6mo ago) and to be able to have fun and be happy. I can do that. If we bang one out, whatev. Wouldn't be the first time.

Yeah the plan is to text her tonight, and see how that goes. If I like the response I'm getting then I'll call tomorrow night and invite her out with my group on Friday.

Meh, I have occasionally, although I'm generally more interested in entertaining everyone and making sure my house makes it out in one piece than trying to hook up with girls when I do. More often I just have people over for pregame or afterhours, which is less hassle and in the case of afterhours probably more hookup potential anyway. That said, I don't really care right now because I'm really into A and it seems to be progressing nicely now.

edit - Also, flaunting wealth is just totally not my style, although I stock up on booze and let everyone drink for free when I have ppl over

little bit into the movie, throw the blanket on both of you. escalate from there to some cuddling, a kiss moment should be in there somewhere.
The call-out line for simply going to the seat she normally goes to would seem a bit weird to me, but I'll take a modified version of this line I think. I'll get her over to the couch under some pretense (I've got one in mind that should work well) and if she tries to bounce away after sitting there then I might throw out some line about it to gauge for reaction. We'll see how it goes.

Don't do this, more below.

No, this is the wrong answer to what, really, is a **** test from a girl that is evaluating her attraction to you. You don't even ****ing recognize that she's on the other couch. You give her a reason to come over there. Do NOT call her out on it. Don't even make it apparent that you give a ****. Get your laptop out and offer to show her a youtube video, make a bowl of popcorn do SOMETHING so that you create an action for her to undertake. Do not admit you are annoyed or feel left out because she is on the other couch.

Re: SL "Ask Out A Girl" Thread

LKJ- Sit in her seat, forcing her to the couch. Get up for whatever reason (grab a beer, go for a piss, etc.) and sit down on the couch beside her when you come back.

I'm gonna start with "Impressive facebook detective skills" or some variant of that and go from there.

Honestly, I don't have a lot more to go with than that.

Dinner is ok but cliche. Better than a movie, worse than something more interesting.

Pretty sure that I have zero feelings or even respect for mine. She was crazy, but I put up with it because...well, it's difficult to give up action the first time you're getting it. I thought at the time that I loved her, but who the **** knows at that young age.

Fair enough. I have a better option than a YouTube video in mind but it would take too much time to be worth explaining. Your advice on not saying anything if she bounces away rings true.

This would work, but sounds a little awkward and obvious to me. I'll think about it. "Obvious" isn't necessarily a bad thing, but "obviously scripted" is.
