Is This How To Ask A Girl Out?

If you're a guy, and you want to ask a girl out, what do you do? 

Check the following story out.  Author: a dear Nairalander.

Don is seen coming out of a supermarket. Bella is standing by the roadside, clad in a brown alterneck top, tight blue jeans, showing her curves in a way capable of sending waves across a man's medulla oblongata, with matching brown bag and high-heeled stilletto sandals. Don spots the lady and walks over to her.)

Don: Hello lady
Bella: (squeezes face) Hello
Don: Your face looks familiar.
Bella: (still looking disinterested) Don't think we've met before.
Don: Not that we've met before. What I mean is that you remind me of
all those supermodels on TV.
Bella: (tries hard not to smile but can't help it) Ummm Ummm
Don: Seriously. You look like Tyra Banks.
Bella: (lets out a wide smile) Thanks.
Don: My pleasure. So what's the name?
Bella: Bella
Don: Hmmm nice name. I'm Don, pleased to meet you.
Bella: Pleased to meet you too.
Don: So what's a beautiful lady doing here standing under this scorching sun.
Bella: I'm waiting for a Taxi.
Don: Oh really? I came in my car. If you don't mind, I can give you a ride.
Bella: Thanks.
(They both walk down to the car. Don opens the door for Bella to get in, then he  gets in the driver's seat)
*In the Car*
Don: So where are you heading to?
Bella: Beantown.
Don: Oh I live very close to Beantown. Do you mind coming to know my
house then I can drop you off wherever you going afterwards?
Bella: Ummm I'm in a hurry today, maybe some other time. Sorry.
Don: When is this 'other time'? I'll really love to see you again and
have some time to talk better with you.
Bella: Anytime, anytime really
Don: Ok Here's my card (passes his card to Bella) You can call me anytime.
Bella: (takes the card and quickly reads through with an expression of excitement on her face) ok
Don: So can I get your number?
Bella: It's 0804 265 8546
Don: Cool. I'll give you a ring.
Bella: Er, you can drop me infront of that white house.
(Don halts the car and Bella opens the door.)
Bella: Thanks for the ride.
Don:  It's a pleasure. Hope to see you again so I'll give you a ring
sometime soon.Take care, Bel.
Bella: ok. bye
(Don watches Bella as she shakes ass down the street, he licks his lips.)

So my 1st question is this: if you're a guy, and you want to ask a girl out, is that a good way to do it?
And my 2nd question is 'did you like the story?'

i don't see anything wrong with that way. its actually good shaa. but me, i do mine another style ooo. i just appear to be uninterested especially if the girl is so damn fine. she will get worried and ask me if she aint fine enough for me. i don get am be that ooo.

i have many ways and i apply them according to the circumstance. there aint no particular way. even sneezing can get you a girl. hell yeah it can and yes, it worked for me. don't ask how cuzz i aint telling.

the first couple of lines i wouldnt fall for in million years. for me a guy has to do so much better than that_{im not spoiled that is just how i am}i like it when a guy shows some interesting and then acts like he aint that instrested. big turn on, because then that would get me thinking. . .

Thanks for your comments, honorable ladies.  Can you describe what you think a proper asking out session will look like?  Can you post a dialogue in the format of the first post to show us how it's supposed to be done?

Okay im sorry to say, but it's bullshit.

A lady won't give a guy she just met her number like that. Since he gave her his card, she's spose to say "i'll call you, i have your number" or something like that.

And uhmm, she allowed him to drop her in front of her house. That is, he now knows where she lives? Is this love at first site or just a corny unreal story?

Conclusion? It's good, if we are talking about a small guy giving a small girl a bicycle ride home. 

Maybe i just don't get it. This is soo not how to ask a girl out. Using lines like you look like tyra banks.

If a guy tells me i look like tyra banks, i'll ask if he really thinks i have a big forehead.  (j/k) But it's all somehow corny, ya dig?

That is so weak and full of flatters. I don't like that kind of approach

What lines will you fall for?  Give us a demo.   

Any line that doesn't tell me i look like his mother or a supermodel. Every lady wants to be unique.

ok, well. that line is unique aint it?

Can anyone please try using "DON's SYSTEM" (trade mark) and tell us what the outcome is  .
I hope the person's don't endup getting slapped. 

i think this style of asking a girl out sucks. I think a guy comes of as more interesting when he approaches a girl with more humour in tow. More like

Don- You look stunning
Lady-(smiling) thanks
Don- oh sorry, i wasnt talking to you i was taking to the girl on your left
Lady- (embarassed) oh
Don- (smiling) just kidding

or

Don- I'm sorry i am going to have to ask you to leave
Lady- you can't do that this is a public place.
Don-(smiling, moves in a little closer wispering) I know but you are making all the others girls around look bad.
Lady-(Smiling) what do you want?
Don- that's for me to know and you to find out,

These techs might not apply to all girls but if a guy approached me with this kind of line he would get my full attention cause it's unconventional and i'd find him very interesting. I hate it whne a guy sounds rehearsed.
 
   

Like damsal said you just have to be unconventional to catch a girls fancy this days. They've read all the novel and romatifictions in the world. THey most often than not know where you're going.
Most ladies like to play hard so if they get your scope, they'll block your loopholes. the best way is to act like you just like her and not really interested in anything. Then  slowly find your way in.

Sincerely i use simple lines and it always works for me. I'll simply ask her to be my friend and then hand over my card. If she calls fine. If not, then so be it. I don't push it.

Thats the problem with you girls. I know the kind of girls i talk to anyway. Not the ones who just need someone to bamboozle them with lies, stories, and sweet nothings that are only mouth deep but never appreciate a brother who's straightforward.
Well, it's worked for me till date and thats because i use it on the right people.


@little bie
You are not beign forced to call. I'll only appreciate it if u do. Nothing says a lady shouldnt call, afterall i only proposed friendship. I hope u kno what friendship means. I'm not asking you out yet. You don't have to desperate to be a friend. No be by force now.
Peeps like u bore me,  You wont give the call and u wont give your number so what do u expect from d guy. You need a toasting adventure? Well na u sabi, ladies aint all the same.
We still have girls who've not lost the realness and wouldnt fall for cheap poetry from guys. Guys too get levels. Some don't need to push it.

Any question which is open ended is better than one which is closed. To borrow two cliches:

Cliche 1:
"What's a girl like you doing in a place like this?" invites a fairly broad answer and in fact asks more questions than the one it appears to. What's a girl like me? What's a place like this?

Cliche 2:
"Do you come here often?" answer is yes, or no.

Chat up lines in the style of the former are preferable to those of the latter.

Don sounds like the average naija smooth playa,the ride is an added touch.
lmao

Like layi said, we've read all the novels in the world. lol

So once u start with two words, we know where you are heading. Just do your own thing and sound natural.

Sometimes, the response you get as a guy depends on the girls mood n how you look.
