I'm 23 and like this girl in my class, who I've actually talked to (for the last 2 or so months) and had a few conversations with... but now that we're out on spring break for 10 days I want to e-mail her.. I want to keep it casual\nAny suggestions for writing something about school/help with class are nice but just not applicable in this situation (the class is ridiculously easy).. although maybe I should ask her about her research for the paper.\n\nI was thinking\n"hey I hope you don't mind me emailing you through blackboard.. (something about we don't have enough time to talk in class? or i was thinking about her?). what are you doin for spring break?"

wrong approach: "hope you don't mind"  , if you don't think your worthy, why should she?   Instead, tell her you saw something that you wanted to share or made you think of her, compliment her on some attibute that you find attractive ( her laugh, her brain, her quirky sense of humor, etc....)  Leave an opening, or ask a question. to encourage a reply. But this is your first written interaction, take it slow, let her warm up to the idea of corresponding, leave her your IM address.  And don't freak out if she doesnt reply, its spring break, why should she check her email account?

Buy her a nice digital camera.... this summer will probably be the last time she'll see most of her HS friends.  It's a good way to keep the memories, and when she goes off to college (she is going, right?) it'll be nice to get pics from her through email once in a while......

Do a little research and find out when she finishes her classes for the day and try to catch her at that time, that way you guys have more time to talk.  When you catch her during that time, start a conversation by maybe asking her a question about school or a particular class.  After a few minutes ask her if you guys can continue the conversation over lunch or coffee.  You can even ask her if she wants to get together for a group study if you guys have the same classes.  You have to start off by having a conversation about something you have in common (such as your classes).  From there it should be easy to transition the converstation from school-related subjects to something more like hobbies and what she likes to do on weekends.  Find out if you have hobbies or interests in common.  If you're too shy to ask her out on a one-to-one date, then you might want to ask her to join you and some friends for a group activity outside of school.  Just remember to be yourself and not try so hard to impress her.  Be confident, friendly and courteous.  Have fun!

you said that you don't want to burn the bridges, well I'm the same way I always tell people on my myspace that I'm busy. I know it sound cheesy but I always tell them that I just have time to check my messages and if its something really important than I reply. but wording really is everything. tell them its great to see how they are doing and you doing great but you have been super busy with school or work and you will keep in touch. It always works, you can keep them on your friend lists and send out bulletins with up dates. If they are persistent than just reply to every couple of comments they send, and be persistent with your busy life.

Not totally good. She either hasn't seen it yet or she is not interested. If you still have the same class together, ask her. What's the worse she could say.....You'll never know until you do.

Probably before you call her but not 5 minutes after you meet and leave.  Give it until brunchtime the next morning...so around 10ish.  That way it says, "I had a good time last night," but doesn't show you were obsessed.  The message she gets at that time is, "I've been thinking about you, but I do have a routine and a life, so I did what I had to do and you were the first person I thought of contacting when I had some free time."  Plus, you can do the "Wanna have lunch?" phone call once she replies.  So go text!

Maybe you can approach her by discussing your same major or something about class.  Its actually easier if you have the same interests (e.g. your majors) and you could easily ask her if she had any free time after class and maybe head to student union and grab a sandwich or something.  Great conversation starter, its worked before.  Hope it helps and good luck!

Ask her when she gets off, and could you take her to get coffee afterwards.  Make it light and don't pressure her.  A letter will be waay too creepy.  No matter what you put in the letter, the fact that you took the time to write something will tell her that your feelings for her are a bit premature at best, or obsessive at worst.

Go introduce yourself. Comment on the class, or make witty remarks. Smile, listen to what she has to say. Talk about classes common interests, news updates, anything you find to be interesting or unusual. See if you have any friends in common. Collaborate on projects. If you make the effort, she'll talk back. Don't rush the dating thing, wait until you become friends, it might take a bit, and you might find that it's not worthwhile after you get to know her.

When she is talking to you, listen to every word she says and look for things you can ask her next  question on. Example: if you asked "how was your day?" and she says, "spent time with family, went out to eat, watched some tv, read a book" you can pickup on so many hints on here and ask questions like, do you like spending time with your family? are you close to em? where did you go eat? did you like it? you go there often? what type of food you like? what tv programs you watch? which one si your fav? what book did you read? what is it about?.. so on and so forth..you get the idea..  if you ask about something she is really interested in she will give you more details, but on other qs she will give a short answer, this gives you idea on if you want to ask a follow up question or not. Keep looking for topics she loves to talk coz what matters is whether she is having fun talking to you and only way she would is if you 2 talking about things SHE likes.. sad but true.. but it works for guys. Good luck!

Well, she did give you a heads up that she would be busy this weekend. I'm sure this is question requiring a sensible answer from a female. But what i would think is wait till after the weekend and maybe just one more day. If no reply, two possibilities, a)She's REALLY busy b)Something's wrong between you two. Face things as they come and dont get paranoid. And ease up on the emails and texts.

How about, \nI was just wondering what you are doing later, or if you have a class with her say, do you understand what is going on in...insert subject here.  Or you can try the old, my God you are the most beatiful girl here, could I take you out sometime...good luck, let me know how it goes, The 8 ball has a good feeling about this!!!

Sounds like a great idea!! It would definitely be hard to turn you down.  Just a suggestion though... is it possible to do reconnaissance before you pop the prom question?  Can you find out if she has a date already?  It would be such a bummer if she has a date already.  Still, even if she does and you're interested in this girl, go for it even if you know that you'll be turned down. Think of it as an investment!

It sounds as if she was embarrassed that you involved the teacher in this scheme. She might like you, but it sounds as if she thinks you are a "lose cannon" who will embarrass her in front of others. That's the real reason I suspect that she ran out of the room the next day. I think you need to be authentic (and stop the big surprises) and have a conversation with her. Be real, and apologize if you sense she didn't like your "stealth flower surprise". Maybe, if she gets to know the real you, without the "surprises", you'll have a chance with her.
