Always Ask Her Out

There’s an analogy that I always love to use whenever I’m dealing with a situation on whether I should do something or not.  If it’s something I’m interested in and something I really want, it’s always best to go for it.

The analogy is deciding on whether to ask a girl out or not.  Fellas, you know what I’m talking about.  (Sorry to the female readers out there, as I can only provide the male-aspect side of things.)  You know a pretty/interesting/funny/cute/hot/exciting girl, and you sort of want to ask her out.  But you’re afraid that she’ll say no.  When I used to be single, I always went for it.  I’d rather ask and see what happens, then stay quiet and do nothing about it.  Because in the end, I know I will be better off.  If she says no, then I’m pretty much back to where I was originally.  No harm done.    But if she says yes, then I just got myself a (potentially) pretty good date.  That’s how I got my fiance!  I called her and said I’d like to get to know her better, and the rest is history.

So to you out there, take a risk.  Ask for it, and don’t worry about the outcome.  The lesson is in the fact that you’re taking a chance, and giving it a shot.  Why not?
