And I don't know what to do... I really want to get close to her .
This may sounds really stupid but I think I need introduce myself first a little bit. I am short and shy Japanese college freshman. I had my first gf im Japan but never even held her hands lol Second one was white American, she was chubby but pretty but don't care about fashion. 3rd one was Latin American. She was pretty too but doesn't care about appearance. I usually break up bc they usually don't have aspiration and I state opinions too much and bit too logical.
And I met this girl who is really nice but a bit shy. We met at freshman event but she was cheerful and seems to caring about me(not in special way but I think she cares about others a lot). I really wanted to get close to her so I asked her for her phone number. And we started texting. We talked about majors, favorite books, her friends.
But she started texting me not as frequent as first day. Which is understandable bc class has started. And I am kinda busy too. But she usually doesn't even text me back after around 8pm. So I feel like she has a bf.
And I know a lot of girls love someone who is confident somewhat athletic tall white. I get so nervous when I talk to girls too. And act a bit strange(or maybe I am thinking too much but I feel so awkward especially when I talk to pretty girls).
Moreover, he is way smarter than me. Seems a bit shy but she has good looking. So I feel like I don't stand a chance. Do you guys think I should give up?
You're already overthinking and she's already losing interest in you. The time she's texting you means nothing. Just ask her out on a date. Until you do it, the time will be working against you.
Jaxson Phillips
Do you like Terrace House and can you make teriyaki chicken
Evan Carter
I do not think you should give, since it seems that you do not know where her feelings for you stand.
At least she gave you her number, though it is hard to say if she was doing it just to be nice.
Your former girlfriends obviously took a chance with you though, I don’t know how this situation would be any different.
Jonathan Howard
I think you are right. I think she was just trying to be nice and losing interest in me. Sometimes she texts me right after texting her depends on when I text her I suppose.
But should I ask her on a date to give up??
David Ramirez
I am so scared. She is just a nice person.... And she thought I am miserable??
Idk if I should keep bothering her. Sometimes, keep asking a girl out over and ocer again works and sometimes that is just creepy.
I am so scared.
Brandon Butler
I think if she didn't send me back anymore I will stop bothering her. Or even if she did.
Kevin Baker
Look, if there was no other reason for her to give you that number, she did it because, at the very least, she wouldn't mind going on a date with you.
Ask her out.
Cameron Jackson
You should marry a Japanese girl, have pure Japanese babies.
White girls are trash, do not fall for the succubus.
Jayden Roberts
Ask her out to get coffee or tea. White women know what this means. You don’t even have to call it a date. That’s how we roll in America.
Zachary Brown
I know but that is the main reason why I don't want to ask her out bc I feel like it is too obvious.
American don't approach that much usually? Like a creep? I know some girls find it passionate. That is the thing. But I don't want her to hate me.
Matthew Lewis
This happened to me as well OP. Met this really nice girl but I was too scared to ask her out. We texted each other for some time and after a while, we stopped talking so much as we did in the first two weeks. Also I just found out she has a bf now. So man up and ask her out or you'll lose her
Jace Adams
Omg so I need to try??
But what do American people think if I asked her out but rejected. Do they usually think that I'm pathetic or just it is natural to think that not that attractive Asian man getting interested in a white smart nice girl?
Jose Watson
And wondering if I should ask her if she has a bf.
Jack Harris
Do you guys think I should send this?
I have been wondering if I am bothering you. I know you are busy. And if I can grab coffee or something sometimes. I usually need to study a lot but I really want to know about you more.
Aiden Rivera
don't date a western woman, they are vipers
Hudson Sullivan
Omg lol you guys lol A lot of people say that I shouldn't date western women.
But I have never even had a good relationship btw Japanese..... I have never even kissed a Japanese girl....
Jeremiah Johnson
If she rejects you, just move on. You wouldn't the first guy who gets rejected. It's a normal thing. It won't affect your image at all, and moreover you shouldn't give a shit anyway. At least you will know for certain how things are between you and her
Jack Nelson
I think you are true. It is not like she is gotta start hating me if I asked her out anyways. If she did she even didn't like me in first place.
Jackson Morgan
NO!!
That kind of message screams insecurity.I don’t know what Japanese women are like, but here in America,confidence is the key.
Sending her that message is admitting that you’re scared of her, or scared about the idea of failing.Show her that you CAN be a good,strong, and confident man and not a scared little boy.
People in general,and especially women DO NOT like insecurities. Whether it’s romantic or not.
Thank you. I know that. I think I am too insecure lol
I was about to send this. But I think I shouldn't. Mmm... like to be confident? But not too much?
I have been wondering if I am bothering you. Actually I was about to ask you if we can grab coffee or something. I usually need to study a lot but I really want to know about you more. I know you are too good to spend time on me though.
Henry Young
Ok.... Let me think again....
Actually, I was wondering if we can grab coffee sometimes together. I know we are busy. But I want to know about you more.
Adrian Stewart
Exactly. But watch what you're writing to her though. Just make sure the message is straight to the point. Just say hi and then tell her you like her and you'd like to go out with her to grab a coffee. Don't overthink things.
Good luck OP
Michael Taylor
No,user. Still way too insecure, try to be more casual.
“Hey there,are you free this Saturday? Let me treat you to coffee and [fun activity in your prefecture] What do ya say?”
Be confident,give her a yes or no question, pretend that no matter what she says, it does not matter and you will be okay with either answer
Logan Ortiz
Omg that sounds so casual and natural. Omg does that work usually??
Idk.... This may works?? If she said no.... Probably I can ask her different date?
I can't really come up with anything to entertain hee.... But probably talking about books? She is majoring in English and she likes to read.
Brody Perez
Btw. We both live on campus and don't have a car. That will be a big deal?
Luke Butler
That doesn’t matter. You’re both broke college students and you’re in Japan. Your train stations are more than good enough.
That’s the thing, it works in the sense that you will get a “ yes or no” response. When it comes to asking women out, the reality is that unless you’re ridiculously good looking, are known to be rich, or have a big dick, the only thing that you can offer women at first glance is a well groomed and confident adult.
If she says “no” you can just say something like “that’s too bad,we could’ve had a great time!but hey, if you get bored,the offer is on the table.”
If she says yes, just go to a major city,walk around, and get to know her.Try new things that you see while walking by, it doesn’t matter if you’re good at them or not. Just because she’s majoring in english,doesn’t mean that all that she wants to talk about are books. She’s a person with interests, hobbies, stories, and everything else.
Ryan Garcia
You're way too concerned with living up to this girl. This isn't a great mentality to go with, when dealing with American women.
Since you seem dead set, you're going to have to potentially adjust your mindset.
Unless this girl is super into Japanese culture, your concern for entertaining her, living up to her standards, etc. is going to be a turn off. Meeting up is a casual chance to get to know her, and see if YOU like HER. Don't try to prove yourself to her, as if her time and company is more valuable than yours.
Kayden Baker
Lol
This texts absolutely seem you are so confident lol
Mmm... Ok... if she said no.... I will tell her something like that lol
Omg is that how America works??
Doesn't she gotta say, only you could have had a good time or something?? Omg I overthink a lot. If she did that is how she really is. right??
I am going to have to try.
John Phillips
Btw this is not in Japan. And she is not interested in Japanese culture at all.
This is a small town with huge lands in the states.
Ethan Peterson
Can you teach me Japanese? I want to make a trip to Japan but most than sure that I'll die midways.
David Garcia
I can. My most priority is on this girl for now though lol
Chase Thompson
It’s not just how it works in america,Russia,France,Switzerland,it doesn’t matter. In every relationship there is ultimately a dominant person and a submissive,sometimes that line is blurry or couples take turns being dominant. But SOMEONE always needs to be the leader. Be the bigger person and take charge
Aaron Turner
True. I usually became the person who's dominant. But after started dating one. Before that I am so humble or so shy usually.
Mmm... But I think she already knows what I am. So I kinda wonder if it is not creepy to act like an American dude suddenly.
Samuel Cook
I basically had a similar mindset as you, until I asked myself what these girls brought to the table that I didn't. I had a lot more success when I went into a date expecting them to hold up their end as well.
Then I'd go more casual and confident. "When are you free to get coffee sometime?" "Hey, want to get coffee sometime on [day/date]?" If she she's busy and doesn't immediately suggest another time: "No problem. Let me know when you're free," and then move on until she sets a date/time. If she says no: "No worries at all." Don't bother trying to convince her that she would have a great time. That rarely works. Just move on Japanbro.
Carter Torres
And the thing is she doesn't text me back like the first day. So most likely she is not interested in me. But I will bet on tonight.
Nicholas Morgan
Thank you. You are probably right. But I had another guy from somewhere else and kept asking him and girls usually didn't even give him a phone number or I doubt if this ever worked lol
You guys don't think the reason why she gave me the phone number was bc Im not like these appearing boys?? More boring but not harmful??
This is called safe in Japan though.
Bentley Cox
Do you guys think this sounds a bit better?? Do hou have any plans on this weekend? Actually I was about to ask you if we can grab coffee and talk about schools or books . I know we both are busy. But I really want to see you and talk again.
Hudson Evans
Come on, help a bro out.
Angel Jenkins
Or probably this sounds more natural??
Actually, I was about to ask you if we can grab coffee in next the next few weekends? And talk about schools, tv shows, books. I know we both are busy. But I really want to see you and talk again.
Dylan Garcia
You still sound like a puppy, stop that user.
>Do hou have any plans on this weekend? Actually I was about to ask you if we can grab coffee and talk about schools or books . I know we both are busy. But I really want to see you and talk again.
Change it to
Do hou have any plans on this weekend? How about we grab a coffee and get to know each other?
It’s that easy,stop using too many words.
Joseph Adams
I mean, you'd know her better than any of us would. However, I've never met an American girl who liked completely safe and boring guys, until they were in their 30's and ready to "settle down." I don't know Japanese women, but being too safe, ends up making you just a friend.
Japanbro that's still too much. I'll try to meet you somewhere in the middle here. "Actually, do you want to grab a coffee this weekend? I'm pretty busy, and I'm sure you are too, but we should hang out sometime soon."
Daniel Wilson
I know.... I use to much words to cover up my confidence. This should be more simple??
Tbh Idk why she even gave me the phone number.... Just couldn't make excuses to refuse?? She can't say no seeing one's face...??
Dylan Ross
*cover up that I don't have confidence.
Austin Martinez
Now I sent her the message. I don't even know if she is gotta reply but.... I will be ok lol Thank you all. I will come back here tomorrow.
And if you guys have any questions about Japan. I will answer.
Adam Cox
I have no questions, but I wish you the best of luck japanbro
Proud of you for trying
Lincoln Sullivan
>Thank you all. Good luck to you user
Leo Cook
>White girls are trash, do not fall for the succubus Best advice right here my nigga
Samuel Gray
Thank you you all. She hasn't been texting me yet. But I will wait for someone to show up like her.
Justin Gomez
Ask her out on a date, whatever response comes out of it will give you peace of mind. Perhaps she's not really interested in you in that way, not even to the point of a close person in her life. Maybe she is, but you will never know until you ask her out. Somewhat like quantum physics/Schroedingers meme felyne.
Nicholas Evans
This right here. This man is as redpilled as they come.
Robert Ross
Fobby short Japanese man falls for typical white college chick in the states.
I wish you all the best man, I just don't think the odds are very well in your favour.
Hope you at least fuck her man.
Joshua Clark
Thank you. I suppose she is going to say no or say that she was busy this weekend. Or just ignore me.
But true. If I were a girl I don't wanna date someone like me lol I am working on my personal stuff now.
Justin Sanchez
Anyways, you guys helped me a lot. How to be positive, casual, get over and overcome stuff. And girls do like insecurities lol
The last breakup put me into huge sorrow. I feel better while I am awake. But when I am sleeping, my ex shows up and grudges me. I am still be in a hard time actually.
But I didn't get hurt that much like you all said.
I think I should have asked her out on that night when we were texting often. I least I am glad that I learned from this lesson.
Thank you for voice reply. I am happy to hear this.
And this was typo that I typed he is smart but I meant to type she lol
I usually date someone who is insecure. But now I get it that I should work on my insecurities. I stopped walking hunchback and try to talk people and don't try to be pity on myself.
Aiden Bennett
I think I saw her walking with a dude holding a hand now.
And I am gotta just move on since wether if that was her or not she doesn't text me since last night.
Christian Gutierrez
Idk if that was her.... But she sent me that she went home from today through whole weekends.
Omg I started feeling better. Because I am just trying but not scared even if she thinks that Im a creep.
Asher Nelson
It is more of like, it is normal to have a bf. And I can work on my own too.
