    Those lines are terribly cheesy too and I can't think of a way in which they'd be said that would make them funny. I guess at least she'd not think you're boring, she'll just think you're a creep. Alluding to her being a tart that's trying to pick you up, or bringing up the subject of stalkers is a very good way of NOT getting a date.

    Yeah, those lines are total BS, I was just struggling to find a good example. Although going about things that way is much more effective than having the "errr... i'm a nervous teenager who doesn't know what to say" attitude.

    Once a cutie babe at work said to me whilst I beavered away in world of my own at my own desk:

    "You looked stunned?"

    I replied, "That's because you're stunning...."

    :roll: :wink: .

    Suffice to say that.......

    Play mildly interested but don't throw yourself at her, keep the conversation normal and easy and providing you don't mention the stalking or your webbed feet you should be fine. Asking her out will be natural as she may be thinking the same thing. Check she doesn't already have a boyfriend or ring on her finger?

    A faint heart never won fair lady....

    Or just ask if she'd like to see your elephant impression.

    Say to her:

    "They say the best way to get a woman in bed is to make them laugh. I do it all the time, its just when I do get them into bed, they just can't stop laughing!"

    Wassamatterwithyouanyway?

    Tell her that you see her all the time, you think she's the best looking girl here and you have no idea what to say to her and i'll be in the student bar later on if you fancy meeting up !
    Whats the worst that could happen ?

    Don't think too hard about it, just do it.

  • Wow!, this has moved on since I was here yesterday. Lots of good advice and I did laugh at the Masters and PhD thing. It probably goes along the same lines as the idea that having an undergraduate degree is your best earning potential - do a Masters and it it drops, do a PhD and it drops even further. She must be finishing this autumn and so do I so who knows where things go from there. Anyhow, they've just done up the Masters study room which I know she uses, so I might wander in there next week to see what they've done with the place, and see where the conversation leads!

    Say hello to her.

    But don't go DUH!! after saying hello :wink:

    Seriously upgrading from eye contact and a smile to actually saying hi to her will move things on. Just make sure you have a good cough firt and clear the old throat. You want a nice clear manly "Hi " otherwise she'll think your just another geek on the corridor.

    Grab your crotch, start gyrating your hips and making deep grunting noises. If she's up for it you're in, if she looks horrified, well it saved you wasting your time.

    And, being a PhD student and socially aware of the likely consequences, you will, of course, already have prepared an amusing explanation for (a) the Uni authorities (esp. the sexual harassment unit) and/or (b) the police :wink:

    By the way, women are also human beings, not another species**, so try saying hello

    **Tho' it does not, necessarily, make them easy to understand.

    And do try to drool internally. Spraying saliva while speaking is believed to be off-putting, or, worse still, may give the impression you have come straight from pleasuring another lady

    Loving some of these responses.

    just do more exercise, being a PhD student you don't have time for a life and doing your PhD properly...

    I'm just not doing it properly... ask her out for coffee, say you want to get to know her, then stop look horrified and say, oh no, that sounded horribly sleazy, and run away really shy...

    Find out where she lives and instigate numerous bike crashes outside her house until she sees you in a tangled heap. The Florence Nightingale instinct then kicks in and it's just a matter of time before she's bed bathing you.

    Stop worrying about how you strike up a conversation or the imlications..just say hello I keep seeing you just wondered what course your doing and could we go for a drink..simples!

    You don't have impress her with some ground breaking unique comment or chat up line...pay her a complement, :roll: Not I like your tits..something like your really pretty or you have a lovely smile.

    If she looks at you like your an idiot then ask if she fancies a shag! :lol:
