Going to a class for a girl.

[Mr. Saint]

I don’t really have a question; I am more just looking for your thoughts. I have sort of known this girl for about a year. She has been in the same class as me for two semesters and we sat near each other and talked before class. During the last couple of weeks of class we really started hitting it off. I am certain that she is in to me. But I was not too interested in her. We hung out a lot on campus during those last two weeks, and for some reason I never asked for her number. Now that that semester is over and I have not seen her in a couple of weeks, I can’t stop thinking about her.

I know that she is taking statistics during summer session. I am thinking about going to that class just to see her and get her number. The class its self is completely pointless for me. Do you think that going to her class when it starts is stupid and/or creepy to take the class? I will be in the same class as her spring semester. Any comments or ideas would be helpful. Also dose any one have any ideas why I can’t stop thinking about her all of a sudden?

I would just show up; say "I enjoyed talking with you, did not get your number, I would like to give you a call & take you out"...get the number and a good time to call, then call ASAP and make a date.

If you need stats for the summer take it...try not to cry too hard.

Sera has the best idea. Statistics could be useful in life no matter what your major. Judguing from your post, an English course may be more helpful.

Infatuation with the slightly known?

[Ducy]

Hehe Judguin lol!

It does sound like a bit of infatuation. I mean you were never totally smitten by her, but now that she isnt around its like a drug...you want it!

Or it could just be that you have a little thing for her and you miss her company and such

I assume you are in college, and she already has the class. If that is the case then she will be in the campus area regularly. I wouldnt spend that type of money on taking the course just for a chance at her number. Maybe pop by at times to get back in touch with her, or catch her after her class at certain days. Classes dont come cheap

[Mr. Saint]

Thanks guys, I just wanted to make sure it was not creepy to just show up in a class she knows I don’t need. I think I will go to the class to hang with her even if I would be bored out of my mind. Actually, I am mathematics major and am way beyond basic statistics. As for my writing skills, I apologies, as I said I am a math major and finished my English requirement for my degree. Also, I wrote it at 3:30AM after I was done working on my Game Theory research.

Stop being a Comp. Sci "Geek"--go up for a day or so and get her number and take her out...not hawking her! Now go do it! No discussing the Theorems of Mathematics on your date, LOL!

[Mr. Saint]

Actually she is as much of a “geek” as I am. That is one of the things I like so much about her, I can be my self around her. Actually she is smarter then I am, she finished high school by 13 and is pre-med going to Stanford I a year. But, I still know not to talk about my work on a date. As for taking the class with her, I am only worried about wasting my time, all my classes are free and I can take pretty much anything I want. Summer session starts in two weeks and I will go to the class for a least a couple of days and get her number.Thanks

[sera300]

Good luck...just be clear about asking her for the number and why. Follow through with calling!

It took me a long time to figure out during Advanced Discreet Structures, one of the guys was asking me out! LOL!

> As for taking the class with her, I am only worried about wasting my time....

Just meet her at the classroom door on her way out after a class. Talk casually, tell her that you stopped by to ask for her number and state that you would like to go on a date and will be calling. Then do.

No need to audit or enroll in the class.

My guess is that if she likes you and is interested, she will be pleasantly pleased and surprised that you made the effort to meet her for a few moments.
