Paranoia Rocks!!

Girl I like at school. She's not much of a talker. I range from being quiet and moody to being a loud obnoxious seemingly drunken ass.

Thinkin' about inviting her to the dance on friday. Problem is, they play shitty music, and, due to her taciturn-tendencies, I'm fearful that, should she nor I enjoy dancing, that we would end up sitting at a table, not saying anything to each other, and generally having a miserable night.


Thoughts/Comments/Wagers on the outcome?

You fucking do it, and don't look back. Pounce, or someone else will do it first.

Or go somewhere else together. I hate my school dances with a vengeance. You can't dance to techno or rap.

You can...You just have to learn how to do it.

Took me 2 months to figure out how to do figure 8's as fast as I can, now.

Techno yes, rap no.

Techno is dance music.

"You can't dance to techno"

First time I have ever heard of that! There is a whole subsection OF techno called "dance." Perhaps you are thinking of speed trance... I could see that as being a little bit hard to dance to without being on speed yourself.

But also in the context, I assume this is a high school dance? They are not going to have the lights or the atmosphere that a club does, so I do not think it would be condusive to raving anyways.

Ask her to the dance, go to the dance, if she gets bored take her for a walk if its not freezing, or if it is just go to some all-night breakfast place like Dennys. (not sure if that is a national chain or not)

Certainly not the optimal first date, but I have no clue the logistics of high school dating anymore, things have changed way too much since I was in it.

Spee, think of it this way bud... The probability of success is the absolutely zero if you don�t ask.

And if you two do end up sitting at a table �doing nothing� make the best of it. Learn everything about her. You speak 30% of the time, she speaks 70%. Use active listening�

Active listening, if you did not know, is the art of feeding someone back what they just said, to make it clear that you are listening and appear to be interested.

For example, take a sample conversation first without, then with, active listening�

Her: So my friends and I were at this store and we were just walking around and this old creepy guy was crouching behind a shelf, and when he stood up the whole shelf of toys fell over on him!

You: Oh really? Wow

Her: Yeah�

(dead silence, the conversation was ended)

- - -

Now with active listening:

Her: So my friends and I were at this store and we were just walking around and this old creepy guy was crouching behind a shelf, and when he stood up the whole shelf of toys fell over on him!

You: Woah, so the whole shelf of toys fell over on him? What happened then?

Her: Well the manager was just one isle over and heard the toys fall, so he came running over and was just staring at the creepy guy.

You: Haha, that�s gota suck, having the manager just one isle over, what did the manager say?

Her: Well he first asked if the guy was ok, then asked what the guy was doing in the first place, being almost under a shelf. He then asked the creepy guy to leave the store.

You: Oh how embarrassing, he was asked to leave the store? Has anything else bizarre like that happen to you before?

(And after you sense that her story is over, you link it to have her talk about the next event in her life.)

If you are interested in some more cunning ways to make lead a conversation in a direction that will make a girl more interested in you and want to sleep with you, go ahead and send me a PM
