    Yes, yes.... I know. So I sit next to her, we have our seminar, we chat, I may even find out her name (I bet it's something like Hannah) and some other details about her.... But what happens after the seminar's over? It's not like I'm likely to see her again any time soon.

    Start out with "Hi, I don't know your name", and I'll put pretty good odds on her name being somewhere in the next sentence she utters. Then tell her yours. And smile. Act confident. Say funny things.

    If she enjoys your conversation, she just might be keen on having more of them.

    But what do I say after our conversation? "Hey, I know this is super forward, but can I have your number?" or "Hey, this is super forward but want to go for a drink sometime?". I'd have to do something otherwise I'm likely to not be any more than some person she may have had a nice chat to in one particular seminar at that particular moment in time.... but nothing more than tht. And either way, it'd be super forward.

    Yes, that would be super forward. And if she turned you down then the end result is exactly the same as if you hadn't tried at all.

    Murray through to the semi-finals in Beijing, beating Cilic in straight sets. wasn't sure what I felt about him, but he's allowed an opinion and I have been following him for too long now...not as if a GB tennis supporter has anyone else to watch.

    My suggestion would be to throw small rocks at her until you have her attention then performing an intricate mating dance which would allow her to see your full plumage...sex and accolades are sure to follow.

    Zoidberg? What are you doing here?

    Drink or number? I think asking if she's interested in a drink would be slightly less creepy.... and also explaining why I'm being so forward.

    I'm just taking a break from licking trash for sustenance and redecorating my dumpster to give some advice.

    P.S Who's Zoidberg?

    Drink and ask her if she wants your number. Some girls get weird when a guy asks for their number and that way she will feel like it is up to her to call you etc, rather then get hassled of you.

    Please don't say "super forward" to her. If you've had an interesting conversation, just say "this was fun - shall we grab a coffee and continue" or something. Natural. So it's not a "thing".

    The key will be if she has a jacket on the back of her chair.

    Thanks for the advice everyone, I do appreciate it and I'll try to take it on board if I do get an opportunity to talk to her. Although I suppose a more realistic option would be to just accept the fact that I'm never gonna have any kind of meaningful relationship with a girl ever again.

    How old are you PL, 22? Time to drop the teenage emo boy routine. You could have your dick in this girl and still not have the balls to ****.

    Try to take that constructively.

    But I like crap music like My Chemical Romance and Fallout Boy!

    If it reached that stage, by that point I'd probably be relatively comfortable enough with our relationship to 'have the balls to ****' to use your terminology.

    Running ahead of yourselves...Pomps is trying to get a girl to have a cup of coffee. Have a chat and say something like 'I'm going for a coffee, fancy joining me?.' If yes, well and good. If no with an excuse...say 'Perhaps another time.' You will soon see if she is interested at all. And refusal from one girl does not mean you will die alone in a cave. Lighten up.

    Good luck.

    Sorry, just when it comes to relationships and girls and shizzle, my self-esteem is beyond rock bottom.

    Although caves and similar dark, moist areas are a portsmouth supporters natural habitat.

    Hard to tell someone to get confidence when they haven't got any, but don't invest too much, too soon. Believe in yourself and others will believe in you...being eager is flattering, but over intensity is scary.
