I not as fortunate, as my charm comes after lots of practice....and did not come so naturally.

Charm, to a large extent, is an acquired skill, which is to say, it takes practice.

You're a year and a month late, to be more precise. The further adventures of GQGeek are well known and documented...

Yep. This story had a happy ending. He bumped into one of the guys from the group, talked sports and hit it off, forgot to ask about the girl and retired to his apartment with his new "buddy".

I've had a few.

1. approaching a coworker on the school newspaper (things didn't work, but I still get to see her every other day). She's still not completely out of my mind; she said before that maybe college would be the best time for a relationship. Time will tell.

2. caught a beautiful girl traveling on her own from Washington to Copenhagen just as she was running down the jetway. I was at the end of the jetway waiting to make sure the door was secure from the outside, and she came running down since she was about to miss the flight. I told the flight attendant to hold the airplane so I could get her number

Those are the ones that come to mind for me.

I would not have had the balls for that in high school. Props.

well asking a girl out is not like a reese's peanut butter cup; there are plenty of wrong ways to do it.

just be yourself, if she likes you she'll come around eventually.

Geez, even relatively new members know about them. I'm starting to question my decision to post about this sort of thing on the forums! Despite my desire to entertain, I think I shall abstain from posting the details of my future such failures. For the record, I have had a recent history of going for long-shots... You know, lesbians, girls with boyfriends, 2 girls at the same time...

Thanks. Helps if you know the flight attendant too

Don't let the sceptics keep you down. Someday you're going to bag that Amazonian blonde-haired Asian lesbian nymphomaniac cooking instructor! Then you'll have the last laugh on Ed and Matt! Keep the flame alive, GQ!

Peter Gibbons: That's it? If you had a million dollars, you'd do two chicks at the same time?
Lawrence: Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I were a millionaire I could hook that up, too; 'cause chicks dig dudes with money.
Peter Gibbons: Well, not all chicks.
Lawrence: Well, the type of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.
Peter Gibbons: Good point.

If its still pertinant, I "approached" a chick at a small party once who was in the midst of a violent red wine blackout. She had a compound bow and a whole quiver of arrows, and was shooting them around inside at the guests (It was her party). Luckily she was pretty incompetant at that point, and didn't really injure anyone. But several near misses were killing the friendly vibe. I took her into the bedroom and physically held her down until she actually passed out. We made out when she woke up.

But its pretty intimidating trying to try and sweet talk a beligerent drunk with a weapon trained on you.
She doesn't really drink wine anymore, BTW.

I say you should marry her...cuz that will make a great "Hey Daddy. How did you and mommy meet?" story.

good luck!

I was at a party and a girl told me "Those pants fit you really well!" I was a bit more than creeped out. Mainly because she is a creepy Uber Christian and knows that I have a girlfriend. So to embarrass her I said something about just telling me she likes the way I stuff my junk into tight pants, and said it a bit loud so a lot of people could hear me.

Other than that not many girls have had the "balls" to come up and say anything about me or just randomly to me (or im just ugly, I think the first one sounds better) then again I did have some girls say "wow, he's cute," as I was walking out of the mall towards them, just last weekend.
