NV-Huh you do need a new town darlin!!! so where's that pic?? Just kidding:) well sort of
I personally have asked out my fair share of guys...including my husband. I had really liked him in college, but he seemed not as interested. After he graduated he just happened to come in to the costume store I worked at. Went straight up told him I'd moved gave him my new phone number and asked him what he was doing that night. Worked great!!!
I have to say if you're too shy to directly ask the guy out...offer your phone number. That tells him you're interested without being too pushy:)I personally have no problem with pushy, but hey go where you're comfy:)
EDIT- and NV you know full well were I not married...I'd have already made the plane ticket reservations!
I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

Well, obviously, it's important to have a good self-view. If you do not feel you "look good", then in your own eyes you are not. It helps to have people give compliments to build up self-ego, but you yourself have to think yourself attractive. We are just here to help with the compliment part...if you hear it enough, it will become truth! Well, that's the goal, anyway 
Hey, BSC, welcome (finally!).
I am also somewhat guilty of being the shy type...well, until I got into college, that is. Can't really be shy and be in Drama, you know? I am also a bit of a wise-crack, and humor was often used as my "in"...if they weren't amused, I went on my merry way. I have dated cheerleaders to bookworms, and enjoyed the time I spent with each one. Not all were classic beauties, but all were beautiful to me. I just always felt lucky that they had chosen to date me rather than anyone else.
Another thing, I never make assumptions regarding anyone until I have spent time talking with them. Some of the best friends I ever had were the ones everyone else called weird, silent, or the killer-in-waiting types.
Penguin, thank you for the sign!

okay, rapid change of subject, and not sure to what extent it constitutes an imponderable, but would be interesting to see what people think. Thunderstorms:
now, i love 'em, and most of the people i know who share this love are male. just realised i'm gonna have to walk from here to work in pouring rain and thunder'n'lightning and i could barely stop myself grinning.
so, how does anyone else feel about 'em?

Well, I live in Dallas, but I think Austin is a couple hours away. As for age range, well, I don't know, 21-30 seems okay. I'm 26, but I don't mind dating someone older than me.
Yeah, Austin is about a three, three and a half hour drive south, depending on where in Dallas you live. Not too bad if you're going for an event or whatever, but maybe a bit too far a distance for a relationship.
If you're at all into such things, you should definitely check out the Scarborough Renaissance Festival next spring. http://www.scarboroughrenfest.com/ I've been out of Texas for a couple of years now, and I *still* miss that faire. Sigh.

Ok, I can be ditsy and away with the fairies(as my name suggests),for example...
Lol, SBDB, that's what my family calls "being zappy". We were all in "talented and gifted" type programs growing up, but we can have the strangest dumb blonde moments (despite the fact that three of the six of us are naturally blonde). My youngest sister, for example, got 112% in her chem class this past semester, and straight As in everything else, and yet can still sometimes bust out with things like "Cows don't give off mayonnaise!" We just look at her and go "Zappy!"
Oh, and thunderstorms: Love em! If it's a warm, humid thunderstorm, I love being out in it. If it's a cold and windy thunderstorm, I love being snuggled up inside, watching and listening to it.

SBD- Hey I can tell you what I found:) My husband is really smart, funny, sarcastic, and silly. He's tall with broad shoulders and big muscular arms. He's strong enough to go toe to toe with me in an arguement and not let me walk on him, but nice enough to give me my way sometimes too. HE's thoughtful at odd moments ( like randomly bringing flowers home or buying me a dvd I wanted) and wise enough to ask what I want and mean it. He's good with managing money, but not stingy about spending it.he loves animals almost as much as I do and is great with little kids. He never needs me to dress a certain way and thinks I'm darling even in sweats. He doesn't have a lot of my same interests, but he has no problem with me doing my own thing.
Now not that he's perfect or anything, or that we don't fight or have problems,but he's pretty dang great far as I'm concerned.
EDIT- I love thunderstorms...they have a very "stimulating" effect on me.

SBDB, had you not told us you were 15, I would have guessed somewhere in your 20's, just by your articulateness (I know, that's not a real word, but it's apt).
Thunderstorms. Love them. The louder and flashier the better. Nothing quite like making love in a thunderous downpour.
Hmm. That may have been TMI...

I love them! They bring back memories of sitting in front of the fire in the winter, and playing cards by candlelight because the electricity had gone off.
I think they're really beautiful. They are so big, and powerful, and could destroy you if it wanted, it just makes all my problemss seem obsolete.
Come a thunderstorm, I'm mosat likely to be out rain dancing!
Damn you Fox! Damn you to Hades!!

Techy geek gamer girl!
But seriously, a nice girl (damn, I'm so verbose and descriptive). Someone who I can talk with, who shares similar interests with me, and someone independent. I tend not to date republicans because of ideological differences - and in TX, well that's kind of hard to find.
