Ok, here's the deal. I've been renting a room from a homeowner in her home. Well, my landlord decided that she's tired of living here and decided to put the whole house up for rent (this occurred while I was out of town.) Long story short, I'm going to have to move in a few months BUT one of the new occupants will be a cute black-haired girl. While the Huns were walking around my rooms, surveying their new conquest, we started chatting and I asked if she wanted to go for coffee sometime. She said yes, but they left before we could get each others' information. How should I go about this? Should I ask my landlord for it? Advice please... I messed this up :p

You can try to get the number. But you might have to give yours to the landlord and have him/her do your calling for you. Hook you up.
You could just not move out and have the coffee brewing when she shows up to move in!
Seriously, LD's suggestion is the best under the circumstances. Get the landlord to pass on your number to her.

Well there ya go. Good luck with that approach, kmwest. Make sure that, in proper Ninja fashion, you pee yourself after saying the wrong thing to the girl. Then go home and play video games and scarf down a dozen creme eggs while saying, "What the hell is emotional eating?".
Sounds like a plan.

Extremely inciteful as usual, RL. :p
Nick, you need to learn from km's "just do" attitude in the situation he was faced with. The fact that he didn't get the number is a minor irritant; he did however find out she was interested in seeing him. Important lesson there for you, bro.

You haven't been listening. We all know they are interested. Then we just sit there looking dumb. So far, KM's on track. We'll see...

After she explained how her and her roommates (actually, the males - the women didn't have a problem with me) decided that I couldn't stay for the same rent, there was a natural pause in the conversation.
"One more thing... [point] you - single?"
"[Giggle] yes."
Done. Door open.
And Rob, did you intentionally misspell 'insightful'? If so, +10 for wordplay wittiness.

Good on ya. I was wondering when someone would pick up on that!

That's a pretty big sacrifice for this girl, giving up your fingers and all ....
(Good luck with it. Hope it works out for you, km. )

Was hoping this thread would die on a good note, with Fish's videos.
So my landlord texted her the number. Nothing since then. No word to either the landlord or myself. Alas. This is how most of my attempts end with women, with them not calling me back.
EDIT: ah, I mean, yes I'm awesome! [runs away]
Ten points to whoever gets the reference.

I hav a habit of maken brazen moves on women. I lack the "tall, dark, handsome" mystique that draws women to me, so I have to move in. 5'10", pale, and geeky/pimply is hardly mystique-qualifying. It works sometimes.

I never understand why men feel 5'10'' is such a short height. It's not bad at all, IMO. I can wear three inch heels and still be 3 inches shorter.
precarious situation... getting her number...
