So have you asked her out to an akathist yet? Be careful, you don't want to come on too strong... perhaps a canon would be best for the first time? |

Success!!! So, I finally got over my social awkwardness around the opposite sex and approached the very beautiful blonde girl after Church whom I've had my eye on for quite a while. Sat next to her during coffee hour, shot the breeze, made her laugh, went to Church-school together with her, then romantically walked together outside and told her that she was very pretty before we departed. Next week I'm going to ask for her phone number.
"I lost my phone number, can I borrow yours?" |

Any advice to not screw this up? Because let's face it; chances are I'm going to have a very difficult time finding another marriagable Orthodox female my age. I have to hold onto this one.
Hope to God that she doesn't see this post? Sometimes I think people I know IRL are watching my posts, but then again that's a silly thought. You're just making him paranoid. Besides, there are no girls on the internet. |

Yes, I think half of Hollywood Movie wedding portrayals are in some way Jewish. Or that there is always a Jewish character who'd do something Jewish in a movie or TV series. I think it was Family Guy or SouthPark who had a line that said, "C'mon Jews! Let's show these Scientologists who really owns Hollywood!" |
