I've been riding the train to work for over a year now. There is this girl who i see ever moring but have never had a conversation with but i want to ask her for her number. I get on the train before she does and it is very quit in the morning. I was thinking of talking to her once we get to the city and everyone is getting off. But how do i break the ice and ask? I was thinking of just introducing myself and asking for the number This is how it plays out in my head: "Hey my name is ___ and I know this is aquard considering it is 7 in the morning and we are on a train but do you think i can get your number" Is that good or do i come off kinda creepy? Please help.

That would come off as creepy and no, she will not give you her number if you ask out of the blue like that.....or she'll give you a fake one and then be affraid to ride that train.....

How about when she gets on the train you try and talk to her - pick something that maybe you read in the papers that's interesting or humorous and get her to chat with you first. See if she even responds to you and shows any kind of an interest or if she just turns away from you as fast as she can. If the conversation is working, then you may move forward and ask if she would like to have coffee or luch with you in the city and that will lead to exchanging numbers....assuming she is single and interested.....

Many years ago I did go out with somebody I met on the train. Just like your situation, I got on after him, and off before him.

Just like Dancing said, he started talking to me. We had many conversations on the train over a period of time before he asked if I would go out with him.

That's the best way, I think. Work your way up to it; ease yourself into her life...

I had one of those too and used to look forward to our conversations (he introduced himself and we spoke every homeward bound commute for a couple of weeks.) Unfortunately, he never got around to asking for my number and my shift was changed abruptly. Never saw him again

Chat her up for a day or two then ask her out. Good luck!
