I'm all for living in the present. There are dozens of single, attractive, available women surrounding all of us at work, or church, or in the neighborhood, or friends of your current friends.

 

I recommend trying to discover one of them.

Speaking from expierence: Just let it be. If it is meant to happen it will happen. If not ,you will probally fall madly in love in someone else.

 

While this may be true to an extent, it's impossible to see the forest for the trees when you are staring at what appears to you to be the most phenomenal tree that has ever grown.

 

Holy convoluted metaphor. I guess my point is there's nothing anyone can tell him that will surely hold true or apply to his situation.

Try the phone call, go for it, what do you have to lose? I know I've screwed up many chances and I really wish I would have given them a chance or had the cahones to do anything about them.

 

Remember, a stalker is just a friend you haven't met yet.

At least be honest, like you haven't already dug up that number. Did it work; do you need 9 out of 10 approval on a message board to give it a shot?

 

Looks like it's about 14 to 2, with 8 caveats about stalking. Is 14 out of 16 approval close enough? The warnings are called for when you ask strangers how to make decisions they can't make for you. Come on. Can you be honest with her? What do we know about that part of your life?

 

Hopefully you're not going to do anything stupid or dangerous if it doesn't go the way you're hoping, so if it comes across weird to her or doesn't go over well from your perspective, it'll be tough and maybe awkward if she's not tactful, but you'll know and go back to whatever else you're doing with your time now. There's so much great, stupid, hurtful or fulfilling personal stuff going on with people that you won't be out all that much even in the worst case.

 

If you're closer to this board than to her, I agree most with Bando and JimH5 (also Brett in that no one can tell you anything that's helpful anough, and bsglory of course), but what does anyone else know? Whose opinion on here do you respect and follow enough to decide what to do about this? Everyone happily married did it a little different, and for all you know maybe someone right here already won that heart. Give your head and rocks a few minutes more and make a decision one way or the other already. Good luck with everything either way, jaybird2001wi. She knows your real name at least.

 

If I flip a coin, will you give me head or tail? works really well. See what kind of advice you find on the internet?

jaybird,

I say go for it. I'm one of those shy-guys that never gets dates, but the few times I have managed to ask women out, I get the "aww, thanks, you're a great guy, lots of women would love to date you...just not me." So my approaches obviously fail. I still occasionally reflect on one cool, fun girl from college that played on my intramural softball team (men's team...but she manned the hot corner better than any man), but I can't figure out any way to find out what she's up to. Even worse, I think she still lives in the SF Bay area, while I'm in AZ.

 

And as for those that point out there are lots of women out there, for those fixated on a woman, or those shy guys like myself, it can often feel like there is nobody out there.

 

So once again, I say go for it...and best of luck to you. Let us know how it goes.

After much thought, I realized that its best to let it go. I guess I am to the point where I feel desperately single (I hate to divulge too much info on myself, but I never had a girl in my life) and I am 24.

I am just tired of the "party" type of girl since I just moved out of Whitewater and want to slow down my lifestyle a bit. And I live in Racine, which lacks women all over the place, the only women I find are at a bar and they tell me they either:

a) Just got out of prison

b) Seem crazy

c) Dropped out of high school

d) their ex-boyfriend just got out of jail and wants custody of their kid.

 

I am just looking at a girl who is down to earth and I am tired of the personal ads because they don't even work.

To be honest with you, I would prefer the type of woman who was Silverman's wife in Saving Silverman (the personality type, not the crazy brunette, but the blonde)

Me i married the girl who manned the Hot corner on my coed team. Plus it didnt hurt that when we started dating she had a 20 pack to Brewer games.

 

For me before her, i got tons of dates from bouncing at a bar, granted size and attitude excludes some, but being the "knight in shining armour" worked great, granted none of those girls were marring types. You would be shocked at how confidence really attracts women, not cocky confidence corporate or salesman confidence.

 

I know alot of people that have had good luck with the dating sites, allows you to weed out the losers and girls that wouldnt mesh with you without having to do the dating. Its worth a shot as a nice hedge bet.

Sounds funny dude - but obviously you love baseball and can read. Id suggest you go to the local Barnes and Noble and spend a few hours there on a Saturday and Sunday(morning or evening) - You will have a ton of opportunity to meet women. Its as easy as checking to make sure they dont have any rings on and saying "Hi I am Jay can I buy you a coffee."

 

All I know is that if I were single now adays, Id definatly find time to hang out and read books. Nothing better than a smart woman who loves to read.

principessa21, just curious, but when a guy has never had women interested in him (but they love him as a friend), and has never had a girlfriend, women can feel it. So how does a guy get that lucky first break? I guess I always had those guys that hit on women in deli/coffee lines or that hit on waitresses as being pompous jerks. I guess that's why they always get the girls then

Jaybird,

 

Only one thing is certain. You and this lady will never have a chance, ever .....if you do not contact her. Go for it! You literally have nothing to lose and everything to gain. You haven't talked to her in two years! If you are really nervous about calling her cell, try texting her ...just do SOMETHING!!

 

You never know what can happen. This actually reminds me of Goodwill Hunting where Robin Williams knew the woman at the bar was the one for him. He ditched his friends to "see about a girl" and ended up missing Carlton Fisks homer! He never regretted it.....
