(If you can’t be bothered to read all of it just for the conclusion. She said no)
I started my new job about 6 weeks ago and from day one I noticed a girl who sits behind me across the office who was perfect, my type and really pretty. I had a few chats with her and it was going well. However I knew she was pretty far out of my league, I mean I’m not a bad looking guy and I have a relatively solid dating record but she’s extremely good looking and seems popular within the office so I knew to be realistic about my chances😂
I knew I wanted to ask her out after the first few chats went really well, but I knew I was probably projecting quite a bit about how things were going to go but it started to annoy me that I hadn’t done it and that I’d basically whimped out of doing it a few times and was starting to affect me at work cos I was really developing feelings for the girl so I just thought f*ck it I’m gonna do it.
So I timed leaving the office at the end of the day so we’d leave together so I could speak to her again and I just asked if she’d be interested in doing something outside of work like going for a drink or some food or something and she took it well and then let me down really easily saying her life’s really busy and that she’s really busy with work etc (standard stuff) so then I just said yeah that’s cool and for her to have a nice weekend, so it wasn’t a harsh let down at least and it may go somewhere in the future we’ll have to see because I’m gonna keep speaking to her normally, no flirtatious stuff because she’s already said no so that wouldn’t be cool.
But regardless of the outcome I’m still really proud of myself for having the guts to actually go ahead and do it in person and it feels like a weights been lifted off my shoulders, I mean I may regret the decision in the future because it might have been too soon to go for it. But given how I felt at the time it was the right thing to do for me.
Basically the whole point of this post is that if someone’s in a similar situation to me you should just go ahead and do it (the right way) because even though in this case it didn’t go how I wanted I feel so much better for doing it.
