Free and single for 1st time in 3 year - CONFUSED!!!

Hey - this is probably a common problem but one which for me in any case is about as easy as juggling hot coals.

Story so far: My girlfriend of 3 years and I split a year ago, and i spent the last year getting over her (possibly too long?? but was needed). Now this year im ready to "get out there" again. The main problem is that the last time i was free and single properly was in sixth form and I havnt a clue what to do. Just chilling out with my mates has been helpful and I can sort of get to the getting the numbers stage (but generally by fluke :P).

Anyways, the question is after you get a girls number at a party what the hell you do next???

Cheers for any help :smile:

errrr try calling it.
Generally sending her a message or calling her to see if she would like to meet up works..

heheh - i guess thats obvious :smile:. I just tend to screw up this part. So i guess I should really have asked what not to do/say.

cheers

Rofl ' try calling it?' haha.
I get what you mean, but yeah i think you should just phone her up and be like hey hows things, wanna chill sometime? something like that:smile: usualyl a good one is to go watch a movie i think.. movies are <3
I wouldn't recommend going to the movies on a first date, you need to go somewhere where you can talk to each other properly. Also I wouldn't recommend going out to eat as I know most girls dont like eating in front of guys on a first date incase they end up looking like a moron

Once you have a girls number you should maybe text her the next day as it shows your keen and just say something about the party/club etc and then hopefully she'll tx back quick to show that she's keen.

I think going to the cinema is alright option because you can just get used to being around each other without trying to think of stuff to talk about and then if there is a good vibe between you then go for a drink after so you can chat.

Just go with the flow.

Well, at the very least I imagine that you'll want to call in order to check whether she's still female single.
