Just to give some perspective, I remember the last time I came on to a really hot girl, way out of my league, who’d been flirting with me. It turned out that, why yes, she really was way out of my league, and slightly befuddled as to what she’d said or done that made me think differently.
Think you’re talking about “Miss Temptation.”
Well then, fuck it. I’m going for it.
alice, wanna go on a date with me? I have a bush with your name on it.
Or, to put it more delicately – May I touch you with my penis?
Date, yes. Penis - you need to keep that to yourself, pardner. 
What would be the point, then? 
Man, this board is filled with my spiritual sisters. adds alice to the list of Dopers she really oughta take out to lunch some day to compare notes
Terry Pratchett calls it “the jerk syndrome” in Thud, Sternvogel already explained it.
tdn, dear, we already know what you want. Being too obvious is crass
To address the “She’s so cute, no one asks her out” syndrome – I knew about this way back in high school. I decided early on to capitalize on it. I asked out the cute girls that were out of everyone’s league. There were – without exception – dating someone.
Sorry, didn’t mean to be crass.
May I touch you with my tender soul? My hot, throbbing, tender soul?
That’s better. Much more subtle.
I think I now have a Hopeless Doper Crush on Nava.
Well, if you put it that way…
I am thinking. You have no idea what really cold weather does to me, I tend to sleep all the time when it’s cold out. alice could no doubt keep me warm, but the uh, “physical activity”, necessary to ensure that I wasn’t sleeping 12 hours or more a day would be such that I’d be at risk of dying from protein loss! (Though, I must admit it wouldn’t be a bad way to go! ;))
Why do I suddenly feel like I’m being auctioned off to the highest bidder…
::: Waves bidding paddle:::
You boys are all big pigs.
What?
Dearie, we would never do that.
Oh, and 20,000 quatlus on the newcomer.
:: scratches self, burps ::
Sorry?
It is getting a little creepy around here. Why don’t you and I go outside for a walk and a bit of fresh air…
Stranger
Fine, but if you start steering me towards a shrubbery, I’m gonna wack you with this bidding paddle…
