Would you be confident enough to approach someone that you thought was cute, but did not know and ask them out for coffee? Just for the record this question is not about me. lol

My daughter asked a guy who works at the mall out for coffee tonight. He kept checking her out and she thought he was cute, so with some coaxing from me and a store clerk lol she approached him. Turns out her Mr. Goodlooking was sending the wrong singles. He was honest though and said, I'm sorry but I have a g/f. She walk away rather embarrassed. I told her not to be. At least she had the confidence to ask him to grab a coffee with her. She came home, went to the store purchased a bunch of posters and hung celebrities all over her walls. She is dealing with dating blues. lol

LOL well i'm not out on the prowl since I'm married :) But if I was single then now I probably wouldn't, I can't see me approaching someone with 5 kids in tow ;) But I did sort of "make the first move" with my hubby. I was braver back then.

It is hard to ask someone for a date. I am currently in a relationship but there are times that I am shy enough to ask my boyfriend for a date. But there are times that I managed to ask him to go out but usually if there's a good movie out.

Well I wouldn't do this now as I'm happily involved and don't date- : ) But yes- I would- If I saw someone who I found attractive- I might go up and casually start up a conversation with them- If they talked back and looked interested- Sure I'd go for it- If they didn't look interested- I wouldn't!

i would try and ask him out. if i'm really confident that he likes me and i would think twice to ask him out for a cup of coffee. they say everything start with a cup of hot coffee. i mean in conversation.

I read the part about your daughter doing this and being turned down, but for a good reason, and I just wanted to send her a congratulations on being so brave! :) Now to answer your question, yes, I have asked a perfect stranger on a date before, he is now my husband of two years on the 18th! lol Took everything I had in me to approach him the first time, but it was well worth it!;)

If I really liked the guy and even if he's a stranger I dont see any problem in asking him out. I mean what if he's the ONE and you dont have any guts to approach him. I m doing this so that I will never have any regrets..
