is asking someone out via email creepy?

Question

i've had a crush on this girl since last year. we had a bunch of classes together so we got to know each other a little. but, this semester, we don't have classes together so i never see her. then, just recently, i saw that she'd written an article in the student paper that i thought was really good. would it be creepy of me to send her an email saying that i liked her article and ask her if she'd like to go out for coffee sometime and talk about what she wrote about (it's a very topical article on global warming.)? any help would be greatly appreciated...

Answer 1

Its not too creepy, if you really feel weird about it, explain that you'd tell her in person but you don't see her because you don't have any classes together. And you're talking about her article so its not just like she opens her e-mail and sees "Will you go out for coffee with me?" don't worry about it, I'm sure she'll be flattered =]

Answer 2

Try this: email her and tell her how much you liked the article and then invite her to attend a specific event related to the article. It doesn't have to be closely related, it can be an exhibition, a lecture, the premiere of an environmental movie ... this gives your proposal a thin veneer of legitimacy.
Of course, it would always be better to do it in person or by phone.

Answer 3

So ask her by digital mail - the alternative is to continuously ask your self "what if". we've entered the worldwide of technologies with many web pages available for on line relationship so there is no longer something taboo approximately asking out somebody you have an interest in by digital mail. choose for it - the worst achieveable element she would desire to assert is not any or maybe then it is unlike she'll be able to make certain which you're disillusioned. good success.

Answer 4

If it is your only means of contacting her then I don't see the problem. After all, you are not complete strangers. I would imagine she'd be pleased that you liked her article and would be willing to meet to discuss it. It's just coffee. Be brave, e-mail her. Good Luck!

Answer 5

no not creepy

alot of people have written and asked me out by via email i guess it helps to no if i say no they wont feel rejected

if she says no dont take it personal either just think she was nice enough to give you an answer and if you never ask youll never know if she would of gone out withyou and had a great time

ask her
good luck

Answer 6

asking someone out on a date through email is a bit impersonal. But, to email her and compliment her on her article and ask her for coffee and a discussion is alright!

Answer 7

I don't know about it being creepy, but it's not a good idea. If you are going to ask her out you need to do it face to face or at least over the phone.

Answer 8

Much better to ask her in person, but if you can't manage to find her any other way, then use the compooter to find out if she remembers you and maybe make a casual date to meet. No guarantee she won't think you're creepy, though.

Answer 9

its not creepy. now if u didn't know her and was asking her out by that then yes. just tell her hey i liked what u wrote and ask her if she'd like to go get something to eat or something like that to talk about it. just be yourself. good luck

Answer 10

No, I do not think asking her out via email isn't creepy. It just shows that you are a coward and do not want to ask her out personally. I think all girls like to be asked out personally.
