Yeah...  the correct statement there would be "It'll be all OVER from there..."

I think I'd be leaving the room with two black eyes if I ever said anything like that to her with our current friendship.  And it'd probably be a LOT more painful than the two times she's punched me in the head (long story).

Do me a favor dont make me drive that far just talk to the girl. You sound like me when I was 14. Nothing ventured nothing gained, trust me the worst a girl can say is no, your fears are irrational and unfounded.  If you're that close quit worrying and dive right in. If it doesn't work out remember womwn are like buses, there will be another round shortly.
Do you do any public speaking? You say you're a manager so I assume you have to give verbal reports/presentations at board or management meetings in front of others.
If not part of your problem lies in effective communication. My son will not have a cell phone with interent and text it is a huge detriment to developing interpersonal communication skills and effective communication.
If this is the case I would suggest Toastmasters club meetings.

I'm not 100% worried that she won't like me for more than just a friend...  I'm worried that one of the best things in my life will be lost due to stupid feelings. 

She didn't work today...  it was complete HELL.  No one to make me smile.  No one to rant to (that understands). No smile to look at to cheer me up.

[bettingpython]

Ok so what if she doesn't like you as anything but a friend, be friends. She's changing jobs soon anyway so you gonna be depressed your entire life when she isn't around everyday? Plus if she just wants to be friends then you can get your butt ou ttheir and start talking to other girls. Whats the downside she likes you enough to date, move in you get to see her regularly and be happy, or you get to still be friends see each other occasionally and you go out and meet other girls and talk to them and eventually find that person where you both click? Theres no downside to understanding where you stand dude. she's not he last girl on earth.

[annguyen1981]

Thankz BP.  That's the butt kicking I kinda needed.

[Toogoofy317]

I think the inviting out with friend's is a wonderful idea. I know all the places I worked at the people that were liked and worked good we always threw a party for so at that point toward the end of the night just take her aside and let her know.

And no I wouldn't have said the poem stuff if he hadn't known her for over three years. He knows if she'd be that "type" of girl. Very very few people have seen my poems I don't even know why I posted one on here that was a first.

And Wladizu sorry nowhere near my type. Hope that doesn't hurt you're feelings if not I could just come over and kick you in the nutz like a few months ago at Halloween Horror nights. Thank goodness my police "protector" was there to laugh. You ever come up behind me and lick my neck and it's over! Guy started screaming I'm gonna sue you and the cop was like I didn't see anything la la la! JK wouldn't do that to a fellow GSer. But, if I was to pick a guy on here it would be Yama hands down. Talk about a guy with empathy and treats people with respect even when views are on opposite ends of the spectrum. Beer Garage, respite, and Loki are great people I've talked to on here. Would have said pronator too but I  just realized that uhm yeah she's a girl lol! Couldn't figure how those boots were to big for a guy my medications playing tricks on me again. But, yeah we got a good group here.

Now An go get her so we can gripe about something else! Do you want me to give her a call you know the woman to woman thing!

Mary

I do like a man to be a man. Just that a man no pretending to be the alpha male and definately

[cafeboy]

Well I liked your poems Mary and I am happily married so not hitting on you.
An just do something already or move on bro.

Horrible idea having friends out with you sorry goofy  but I strongly disagree, dont do a movie either do something where you have the oppurtunity to interact and visit and be sure you can give her your undivided attention. Turn your cell phone off seriously I may not be the brightest guy in the world but I know what it takes to get the girl.  I met my wife the very first time she invited me to spend 4th of July at her grandparents cabin on the lake. We sat on the dock and fished and got to know each other. We have been inseperable ever since. Movies are cliche and a loss of multiple hours of valuable communication time. Friends bring on undue pressure and potential embarressment and both parties can feel uncomfortable being totally honest.

[Toogoofy317]

Hmm, weird cause when I worked in Disney for eight years. I saw four marriages occur out of our "parties" not to mention the couples that did happen but formulate to a marriage A couple of hours we're all together then people break off in small groups then well you know what sometimes happens. Maybe it was all that pixie dust.

Just an observance that seems to work down here!

Mary

[annguyen1981]

I agree with BP regarding movies...  They're not that great for a date...  you can't really get to know someone during a movie.

Mary - it's not a group of work friends invite...  just me and her.  (at least I hope it will be, if she accepts).

DAMN m8 sage advice there

[spc]

You're a Buddha Loves You An.   Just f%$king ask her and don't take no for an answer.

[yamahonkawazuki]

or as larry the cable guy says, " git-er-done" worst she can say is no. but even then at least youll know 

[5thAve]

Hey dude,  forget all this advice you're getting here.  Just go talk to her and get it over with.

[wladziu]

That IS the advice he's getting here. 


Some of us are just a little more verbose than others.  Boredom's a b!tch. 

[cafeboy]

Hey dude,  forget all this advice you're getting here.  Just go talk to her and get it over with.

+1 and lets move on. 

[annguyen1981]

Ok. I asked her about the dinner invite, and that reminded her about the gathering of a few people from work tomorrow night at an Uno's. (I haven't seen her since Monday)

The only problem is there are two other girls that are gonna be there...  and they'll probably take most of her attention away.  I'm gonna just tell her I can't make it tomorrow night, but I'll insist that I take her out early next week to make up for it.  With the "rsvp" list to tomorrow night's late dinner, I doubt I'll have any 1 on 1 time to talk to her.

[wladziu]

How did it go? 

[jetboy287]

yeah i wanna know how the saga ends. just remember the worst she can say is ( Let's just stay friends)
