  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Confidence is a big thing (or so I'm told. :D ), so if she sees that you are freaked out, it will most likely hurt your cause. Be comfortable and confident in who you are, who your father is, and let everything else work from there. I know it's cliche, because we all want to be accepted by other humans, but ultimately it's also true.

As for how you know - I haven't the foggiest clue. But I can say this: I'm a very shy person, especially when it comes to asking women out. But... because I was comfortable in who I was (when I was dating), I was actually asked out more than I asked. Not saying that to brag at all, because I'm nothing special. That's just the way it worked out.

Just be yourself - that's all that anyone can ask. And if "she" doesn't like it, then it's her loss.

Go to the mall with a motivating friend and ask every woman out you find remotely attractive, start with ughly ones if you have to. Ask, ask, ask... for the digits over, and over, and over... Change your approach to see what works best and what doesn't work at all. After around 40 to 100 times you should be competent in asking women out, and hopefully you'll have a few names and numbers for practice dates.

THIS WORKS!!!:p LOL, actualy your COULD go about it this way and break some hearts. But I would advise against it. It hurts to hurt others trust me. You may want to try to gain some confidence. Just find out who you really are and be strong in that. I did that and next thing I knew I had a lot of women considering me as possably being a bf. Not braging though:o :p

Yeah ...this works only if you look like Arnold Used to in his body building days. Or if you are able to wear the "wife beater" T-Shirts and skin tight jeans and weight less than 180 on a 6' frame.

:(

Have you tried it or are you just being pessimistic? I don't look like Arnold and after awhile it worked for me. Practice is the great equalizer. If you use it you will eventually succeed in whatever you do.

Try not to be freaked about the possibility of getting rejected. Think of it this way: are you going out with her now? Nope. If she says "no," are you going out with her then? Nope. Seems to me the outcome is the same as what you have now even if the worst possible scenario happened. However, she can say "yes" and you would be going out with her. You have only to win. Just be sure that (a) you don't get distraught over rejection, since it happens to nearly everyone at some point, and (b) if you're good friends with her now, don't let it get weird between the two of you afterwards. At the very least, keep being her friend. Also keep in mind that if it's not her, God has something better planned for you, and that is an encouraging thought. :)
