I need sum hep from da gals (preferably english)

---

Cheers ladies! I need sum help with a girl i know. I really fancy her. She's really pretty and I'm not the most handsome thing ever. I'm 6ft and im 14.I'm pretty popular, my band play at loads of stuff and no one hates me. All the girls in my form say im their best male friend but no one takes it any futher. I'm popular with the lads as well. This girl is popular and we get on really well. Tommorow me and my m8s are goin 2 da cinema and she is goin. Shud i ask her out? I'm terrified she'll say no coz im a bit overweight. All the girls say i'm really cute but no1 eva asks me out or n e fing. Wot shud I do? Do girls go that much on looks or personality? The reason I ask 4 english gals is coz they seem 2 hav a different way of thinking to the yanks! Cheers and sorry 4 makin u listen 2 this sob story. Any replies as soon as poss will be welcum(sorry i posted this in da rong topic 1st time)

I am on a time limit here guys!

different thinking than the yanks? abd dude stop being a lil p*ssy and ask her out...if she says no...oh well try someone else.

yep......it is time to suck in all that pride you seem to have and ask her.....if you get a no, oh well.

just see how it goes tonight.. maybe you can go out with just the two of you.. like maybe christmas shopping? thats what im doing tonight.. with my man friend!! lol

Whats wrong with you guys? Telling him to just stop being a pussy? Who are you to call someone that? Seriously, dude, what you need to do is find yourself in a place or situation where you feel comfortable talking to her. I know that if you like her a lot it won't be so easy as these other guys make it to just forget and jump on someone else. You guys forget, when you really like someone it isn't that simple to just get up and walk out. The best advice anyone would give you is to make sure that when you do decide to ask this girl out, that you do it confidently. If you show her you genuinely like her and aren't afraid to show it then she won't be so shy about it. If she likes you, great, if not, you'll have to either wait and see if she changes her mind or try to distance yourself for a while. You never know, a lot of the time girls say no just because...

cheers daiman. Thanks for the help u guys. As to the different thinking from the yanks part, I have a m8 who moved 2 Texas last year. We r still in contact and she says the gurls in america r really different, that a pretty girl would never go out with a not so handsome boy, and that punks like me are unpopular. Maybe shes rong so apologies. Cheerz m8s. (yes we brits do call every1 m8)

English nickname 4 americans im just using it as shorthand sorry. We have been over this in anutha thread

well i would say for the stuck up females on the planet they can do that. But I am sure no1sex will agree with in saying that women are very open and it is best to get to know them, even the pretty ones (usually they have to see who really likes them and who is in for the body).

Hey Bullo, just take your courage in your hands and do it. Don't worry whether she thinks you handsome or not - that's for her to decide, and girls have strange tastes. She may be waiting for you to ask her - girls usually do, even nowadays. If you don't try you'll never know; and if you keep on never doing anything, carefully avoiding any possibility of a kick in the teeth, nothing will happen. Life is about taking risks - take them.(Oh, and being more sensitive to the sensitivities of others would help you - notice that you've raised some hackles, and therefore got less help, by using undiplomatic language.)

thats exactly what I was thinkin. why do foreigners call americans yanks? yanks are northerners as far as I'm concerned. i believe rebels would be better suited for the south. still rebels wouldnt suit the entire nation. SO what's up with yanks? To me thats kinda like a white guy droppin the N Bomb on a black guy.

Good ol english - american thing going on :-/ Cliché of english people ... Casual conversationWe DO say man and mate refering to one another, but not dawgWe DO say we are going to get US a drink when we mean only our self.We DO have another meaning for 'fanny'some random stuff there :| and im not lieing about that, as my dawg brotha G homeboy can relate to (no im not a gangsta)Gotta say though i hate all the prejudice inspired by alot of ppl like Michael Moore and "the dumbest english person is smarter than the smartest american" that sorta nonsense has no foundations, but thats prejudice for you. Btw we dont go around saying cheerio and supercalifradgilisticespialidoscous. And the Yanks business, thats what we call americans, not sure what u call us :| hope its nothing horrible eats tea and drinks crumpets

As far as i know, we call you English, Brits, or the British, so how bout some mutual respect, tell us what you guys prefer to be called and stop with the yanks please.

i just want to say i never meant any harm with the term 'yanks' but now that i know how its taken ill never say it again sorry.

And that stands to reason, because many americans may not be offended by the term yank. i just think it'd be more respectful if people just used the term american.
