Dating An East Coast Girl?

[bagglefork]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but the ladies' section doesn't seem appropriate.

I'm Thai (3/4 Chinese), currently studying undergrad in the US and absolutely loving it. Long story short, my attempts at asking girls out have been unsuccessful. In the past year I asked three girls out. Two of them (both Asian) turned me down because of several reasons ("sorry, I just got out of a relationship"). Went on a quasi-date with the white one but didn't really feel the connection. So I guess I need help from the experienced before I screw up next time.

I first met her at my school’s admit weekend a few months ago (I was a freshman, she was a senior in high school). She was deciding between a few schools. We had a little chat and a dinner (joined by her room host). and she ends up coming to my school.

Here’s her short bio (from what she told me, I’m not a stalker)

- went to an all-girls school in New York

- daddy works on Wall Street (investment banking). both parents went to Harvard.

- passionate in writing

- probably going to major in a non-lucrative major (English, Art History, etc.)

What would be the best way to start? Getting some drink together? Many thanks! I went to an all-guys school for six years so I have lost my skill to interact with half he humanity.

Since you have only one post your are a troll suspect, however, just network and keep asking other women. There are too many fish in the sea to get hung up on a couple of women that had other things going on or other interests at the time ...its the luck of the draw for the amount of time it takes to find a match.

I grew up and spent a good part of my life on the east coast. People tend to be more conservative and tight buttoned. I'm not a lady's man by any means, although, I feel I could help.

Before you get too far, have you talked with girl enough to get a sense of her personality? I've met girls from established families with awesome education prospects that are just...dull. You didn't mention anything about why you were attracted to her.

Isn't she too young to drink?

If it were me, I'd make her laugh, show her what I consider fun and give her a chance to open up. If she's passionate about writing, take her to a poetry reading or a play.

Beyond that, you can't force a relationship. If she doesn't click with you, her loss - move on.

This forum is aimed at Thailand, not USA. I would suggest a more local forum.
