I think I stumbled upon a woman who is into me and I'm really into her but I haven't the slightest idea how to express that beyond kinda just saying it like a dumbass. We've hung out a few times and I'm going to reach out to go out with her again but I've got no idea how to express my actual feelings for her
I've never had a girlfriend. Only women I've been with have come onto me hard and I just halfheartedly played along. Last time I was really into a girl was years ago and I fucked it up because I didn't know how to express that. I really don't want to mess this one up though. How do I go about this?
Edit: thanks for the input everyone (silly answers too). Gonna ask her to go somewhere with me this weekend and be a little bit less coy
Hung out a few times and done what? Were you friends before, or is this someone you met more recently?
If you hung out in a place where someone might go for a date, one on one on multiple occasions and felt some sort of... thing... you know, when you can sort of just tell there might be something there. Different eye contact, different jokes, different topics. If you can feel that thing, then propose something that is OBVIOUSLY a date.
Depending on your culture/what time of the year it is, maybe stuff like: going out for a drink, a picnic. If you know them as a friend well enough and feel like you trust each other, you could even be bold and casually offer a movie or dinner at yours - if that's their vibe - some people are netflix and chill and some are not... so be cautious. It could even be something like a gallery/movie unless that would feel very ordinary to your current relationship.
If neither of you feel compelled to flirt and make it actually obvious and reciprocal after all of that, then one of you doesn't like the other like that.
