I've been going to the blood bank to give blood for a while now and lately I've been getting some serious bruising from giving blood and it really hurts. It's gotten to the point where they've had to stop the proceedure because my arm bruises up so badly.

But theres this lady that works there that I like and I was thinking about saying this to her,

"I really like giving blood and it means a lot for me to do so, but the last few times it hasn't gone so well and I haven't given any blood at all really the last couple of times. To be honest with you the last couple of times has been more about comming in to see you. I still want to give blood even though it really hurts so if you say no I'd still like to come in to give blood, but I wouldn't mind seeing you outside of here. So I was wondering if you would you like to go and get a coffee some time?"

How would you react if someone said this to you Does what I'm saying sound OK or does it sound weird/creepy? What would you say?

give blood because you want to give blood...

ask her out because you want to ask her out....

dont intertwine the two or it will seem like some sort of weird creepy sort of prostitution offer...." date me and in return I will give blood".... ummm yeah sounds creepy...

just front up and give blood.... if the girl is there after you give blood simply ask her if she is free to date.. and if so would she consider dating you...

TWO DIFFERENT ISSUES:

1) I have been giving blood since 1987 and with the exception of one time where a phlebotomist "butchered" my arm I have never had a problem. Yes you MUST bring this issue up with the blood donation center and/or your physician. Most likely, you will not be allowed to donate blood.

2) You like the lady, so ask her out!! Nothing to it dude!!! Either she will say "yes," or "no."

no no no don't talk about blood well just say something i like to help sick people and donate my blood to help them.
try to start conversation and see what her interests are and see if you have some in common.
it's shouldn't always be about jabbing needles into your arm.
just be nice and yourself and relax.
then after a good talk just relax and ask if she'd like to come out with you for lunch or coffee.
you have to keep the chemistry alive and conversation flowing!!!
OK good luck.

umm i'd say quit the blood theme and just go and talk to her...don't tell her the first time that you went in to donate just to see her....it would probably creep her out....she will notice your bruising eventually and once you get to know her, then you can tell her about it and why you continue to go in....for now all you have to do is check for a ring and go for it =]

Its a little wordy to be honest.

Maybe say you need to replace all that liquid thats donated, maybe go for a Guinness, pint for pint

Tell you will give a little more if she will sit by you. Get her a soda or a desert if she doesn't drink.

I think it's pretty neat.
She probably already has noticed that you came in for her, who knows.
But just go ahead and do it, see what she says. The worst thing that can happen is her saying no!
You have nothing to lose.
And i think it's great that you give blood that often!!!

yes it sounds weird. how about just plainly asking her out to let you know you are interested. i think she might be flattered to know why u've been giving blood so often just to talk to her (hopefully). try getting to know her outside of the blood bank that way

I don't think there's anything wrong with it but you don't have to say all that if u say no i'll still come business because if she doesn't like you I dont think she cares either way. Also dont say you've just been coming in there to see her. Just ask her out.

Sounds creepy, dunno why.

Maybe because this is all "blood-themed".

My advice, don't say you've been giving blood so you could see her, that's kind of weird. Just go again and forget the speech, just talk to her normally and ask her to get coffee.
