Start with creating a series of small talk sessions to get her attention and make it funny so she will remember you. She will get used to it and expect to hear from you more as a regular thing.

Are you a guy or a girl? If you are a girl, too is she a lesbian? If not, you might want to rethink friendship. The most important question: are you the sort of person she would normally be attracted to?

Are you really in love? With real love, there is more than just feelings involved.

Here you go Scant.

1) It's okay to be in love with someone. It's not okay to idolize her. For women want to be adored, but they hate to be worshipped. For one means that you love her for who she is, while the other means you ascribe goddess-like attributes to her.

2) That means that you need to approach her like a human being, not as if you're bringing burnt offerings to an altar. Talk to her about small stuff. Call baloney if she feeds you BS (In a playful manner, of course). Be more interested in her than in you, and more interested in your relationship than in her.

3) Be willing to give her space and time to herself. The last thing any woman wants is a suffocating presence in her life.

4) Take things slowly. Particularly the physical stuff. Rush into that, and you'll scare her off. Or she'll scare herself off.

5) Establish trust. Don't need to elaborate on this one, do I?

6) Be about other things than her. Don't blow off your friends. Keep pursuing your other interests. Respect yourself enough to be your own person. For women, above all things, love men who love life. As I've said before on this board, Ovid once wrote, "To be loved, first be lovable."

7) She's not a rare and exotic bird that you're trying to capture and put in a cage. You are not trying to own her. You are trying to be the person she wants to be with most of all. Be that, and everything else will follow.

8) Finally, don't try that hard. Be yourself. When it's all said and done with, that's all you have to offer her.

It really depends on what the enviroment is. Is this something going on at work, school, in line at Starbucks, what is it? If you can tell me that then I can further help you with how to really start. -mmccul

Easiest way to hook up these days.
