I honestly don’t know where to start. I’ve never in my life added someone on my social networks if I didn’t know them beforehand. That changed some month ago where I got the “friend suggestion” on Instagram for this girl. She looked super cute – you know that type of person where you can immediately tell on the first sight that they’re smart, funny, nice etc. I’ve followed her to see more of her photos and she followed me back.
Yeah, she’s beautiful. I’ve never met her, we’re complete strangers, so I started asking around about her. I heard from multiple people that she’s really smart, has a great sense of humour and overall a really nice person. Awesome! Couple of days later I’ve said hi, replied to some story she posted and we had a chat or two. Since then every week I’ve sort of pinged her with some message, and she has replied back. Those chats have been brief, dozen back-and-forth’s basically which is still something.
Now the thing is – I really want to ask her out. At least from what I’ve seen she’s interesting and there’s no harm in there but we have 0 mutual friends and it’s practically impossible to “stumble upon her” or to ask someone to introduce us. Is it weird if I asked her out through DMs? She’s currently on some internship program in a firm close to mine, I was thinking to ask her to go grab a lunch or coffee on a break or something like that. Would she freak out, since I’m a “stranger”?
Or even better yet, how on earth can I tell from her messages that she’s actually interested instead of responding to my messages out of simple courtesy?
I know the post is weird and I might sound stupid to some of you, but honestly I’ve never said “hi” to anyone unknown up until now. I would really appreciate some tips 🙂
Thank you!
