Congrats!

You're in, as long as you don't take her to the Olive Garden on your first dinner out. :D

Take her somewhere that is significant to you. Some place that can really break the ice so you can get to know eachother. Dont do the standard dinner and a movie. Do something unique she'll never see coming and never forget.

Take her to an Apple store and bore the pants off her!:D
 
well i had called her last night

2 hrs or so later, she calls me back saying she was at dance practice

we then actually go hang out again and we are out till 2 am.....remember we both wake up super early. I wake up at 5 for work and it was a 30 min drive back to my place....boy was i tired today lol

after we hung out she texts me as im driving



a couple texts later and i gets ballsy and say "well what would you say if i think we should date?"

she replies


yea i think i took a major chance (that i instantly regretted once i sent it) but i think she is open to it

Yes!!! Good job! Yay Duke!

What about h00ters... =p

And LESS TEXTING (actually don't do it) while driving.

Does that work for you? ;p
 
I think you should also keep in mind that as much as you have doubted yourself, she seems to genuinely like you just the way you are. I would go out on a limb and say that you should probably take her where you would like to go.:)

And the Apple store would definitely work for me.:D
 
I have better things to do than read the entire 4 pages of this thread.. but it sounds like you're doing great. If both of you like each other.. you can't really screw it up, as long as you're honest.

A lot of people make these situations sound like your a fish-hook and she's a fish. I.e. what's the best strategy to "catch" her. It isn't like that at all. If she likes you.. you're two people who like each other and want to see each other again. Don't think of it in terms of you manipulating her or anything... just take it easy. It sounds like it's going well. There's nothing to worry about.

Congrats! Sounds like things are going good.

No risk no glory. Ha ha!

As some have said, take her someplace special to you or that interests you. Expensive does not always equal good -- especially when dating. Don't try to impress her. Remember, she's a marine. She's used to BS and will see through it quickly.

On a side note from the military perspective. Be prepared to have last minute date cancelations. This can occur 24/7. As a junior marine, she may get duty, or an unexpected detail at the last minute. If this happens, be very understanding and don't bitch. That is one quick way to loose her -- especially if she is thinking of making a career out of the marines.

Good luck! :)

The Apple store would work better for me.;)
Saves water as well. :D
 
so i asked her when shes free and she said tom

i said we should go eat, mini golf, and then watch a movie at either one of out places. she liked that idea

she wants to go to a burger place so i suggested red robin and shes stoked lol

burgers...i like her already
 
Mini golf... burgers... a movie. Awesome; Way to go. Keep it light to start :)

If she's in the military she may not be into Terminator Salvation for an easy night out.

Sounds like she is a pretty down to earth type which is great.

What movie are you going to see?

Who's place are you going to go back to? I suggest you go to hers just so you don't have to drive back to her house to drop her off when it is late, you can just go home. :)
