    I want to give the girl I went out with on Saturday space after what was probably quite a big shock for her. Was going to go to message her tomorrow about going to the fireworks (don't think she's planning to but maybe I can convince her). But I'm impatient*..... would today be too soon?

    * also it'd be nice to know if she ever intends to talk to me again

    Drop her a casual text tomorrow. Then don't panic.

    Basically, said that I was interested in her without directly saying so and with much awkwardness because this is me

    Don't have her number

    Fireworks seem a nice casual night out...why not ask. She can only say no.

    I'm not an expert in reading signs, and of an age when "courting" was still a phrase in use, but I would go by the old adage "faint heart never won fair maiden". Message her, and see what she says, and in future for heavens sake get her mobile number!!

    Yeah, I didn't want to come on too strong by asking her

    I will ask, just whether I give into my impatience and ask tonight or not.

    The way that girl reacted a couple of years back, you'd have thought that I had

    Try knocking one out before you go out; makes you less keen and less awkward.

    Self confidence is the key PL, you can read any woman's survey about what they find attractive in a man and confidence will be near the top after a good sense of humour.
    You need to go in with the attitude that she will be happy for me to ask her out and don't mistake confidence with arrogance. She must like you already if you have already been out with her. Girls are not super beings, they are human, the same as you and they suffer from the same insecurities about dating as anyone else.
    Your biggest enemy is over-analysing what she is thinking and you shouldn't let your fear of rejection become a self fulfilling prophesy by being nervous when you talk to her. Just be yourself and the opportunity will come to ask her naturally in normal conversation.

    PL. unless you look like the elephant man, or worse still support Pompey, I suggest you just message her, and see what happens. If she agrees, then all well and good, if she says no, then move on.

    I'd ask her tomorrow for the sole reason you won't sleep tonight if you've not heard from her, then you'll look and feel like **** tomorrow when she replies to you to say yes...

    Then you'll panic about feeling and looking like ****.

    Stop seeing all women as potential life partners, Pomps. You can go out and have a good time and see where it leads. Worse that happens is that you have a few nights out...that way you meet more people anyway. As said, confidence is everything, especially if she hasn't vast experience of dating either.
