Ask your girl to go out with you.

Ahaaa, I know that sounds like a myspace question from a 11 year old...

But heres the dealio:

Awhile ago my girlfriend of almost 2 years dumped me, said she wasnt happy (basically she was jealous of my photography, and the fact that I work with female models...because she wasnt my ENTIRE world...)

Anyways, I'm over that now, and there is this amazing girl that I am falling for, and shes interested in me too...

I have a plan about it all...
But i want to hear your opinions before I spill it :)

Just be her friend, take things easy (no pressure on yourself or her) and let things be what they will be. If she's interested in you too, then there's nothing to worry about, just treat her with kindness and respect and talk to her like she's a friend. Spend time with her without blowing everything into drama, but while letting her know you're interested.

I find this interesting considering 3 hours before this post you made another thread in which you have deemed a female as "technically" your girlfriend...same one ya?

Make sure she's cool with you and your photography and explain to her how much time and money you devote the that.

Next, bring her to a fast food joint and see if she complains. If she does, then she's a high maintenance girl....HAHAHA...kiddi​ng of course!

Just ask. Plan it out first. Start small, like coffee. Let her do the talking, don't interrupt. Then talk about your self. Smile a lot. Talk positively. DO NOT TALK ABOUT PROBLEMS EVER.

Ask her if she could be your model for a day and take her out for lunch or dinner :)

technically, ew have discussed the whole thing.
but she wants to wait still.

What she said to me was that things will work out as long as there are no problems that come up between us.
The was I see it, is that is a yes, but she just wants to be sure...

So my main goal it figuring out the best way to actually ask her out.

Oh, and fast food is generally a bad idea, if im planning on spending more time with her afterwards, as she has Crohn's Disease...
aha, usually we just go out and get a salad or something easy...

Uh, sounds like a "you'll do for now". I wouldn't get too emotionally involved until she does. People who say things like that are still fishing.

You know I enjoy photography and I often come up with Idea's based around people that I meet. I was thinking about you and a light went off. I know a place near by that has beautiful surondings just right for showing off the sparkle in your eye's and the warmth of your smile. Maybe afterward we could have dinner, relax and enjoy the atmosphere.

Sport fishing can be fun, you never know when you land a keeper.

I think it's best if i dont try to give advice on this.Relationships can be very complicated Just be carefull with your heart-she does sound abit wary,this could be a good thing or perhaps not.Hopefully you can work out the reasons for her reluctance and that will help you decide what to do (and not do)

I'm curious what you have planned.Let us know sometime if that's possible :)
All the best!!
