Love help: What do girls think about carriage rides? - Help.com

If she wants you back, it will probably work. If not, you’re screwed.

That would suck to spend so much money and get rejected.

Personally, I think it’s the wrong kind of effort for getting her back. You guys broke up for a reason or multiple reasons and the way to win her back is to focus on finding a solution to those problems, if there are any solutions to them.

Then maybe just ask her if she’ll give you another chance. If she says no, then don’t. If she says yes, you’ve already won. If she says maybe or I don’t know, that’s when you ask her if you can take her out on a date so that you can help her decide if she wants to or not. If she says yes, you take her on a… carriage ride.

There was no problem thats the thing. I am just really shy and reserved and she just thought I didn’t like her and couldn’t handle it. We’ve already talked about everything. I can tell she wants to be together it just going to take giving her some space then me giving my all.

I’ll give it two weeks then prob say hi and start small talk. then ask ir she’d like to do something.

You know, it sounds crazy, but if I were her, I’d just want you to be honest with me, and ask me for my honest opinion. Not make a huge deal or anything, just ask. Then, you’d know what to do.

I am not going to ask her out just reg. I’ve already voiced my opinion on that. It should be special so if we are to get married and have a future we can look back on it. We were never “official” before just really close I guess.

Yes two weeks is a long time but sometimes it takes awhile.

Whoa. Slow down there, cowboy. Marriage? You’re thinking about MARRIAGE? You’re not even dating her yet!

I know if she sees the carriage she’ll assume I am going to ask her out. We’ve been talking for awhile, she is different then other girls. I plan for the future and live in the moment. Why should I give her less?

Because if you come on too strong, she’ll freak out.

No we’ve talked about it all for awhile. Trust me I don’t think about marriage or anything overnight. I barely even give people the time of day.

Okay. You’re fighting the advice now, which shows that you’re not asking for help, you’re asking people to agree with you. You clearly don’t need us.

Good luck with that.

I am not fighting advice. I just do not want to ask her out regular.

*Sigh*

I’ll tell you my advice flat-out.
A carriage ride is for more… established couples. Ones who can stand being behind a horse’s butt for an entire trip around the park simply because they’re with each other. Now, maybe you like her enough, but does she like you enough? Are you willing to risk it?

Thanks, I’ll talk to her and “feel” her out. If she seems like she wants me I will because I know she’ll love it if not then I’ll just see about a movie.

Let us know how it goes. Good luck.

Not all of any group likes the same thing.

I dated a girl who hated them. She saw them as egotistical symbols of self-righteous superiority.

Well, that’s interesting. My point still stands.

But all girls like diamonds.

I don’t. The only reason there were any on my wedding ring at all is because they were so tiny that you couldn’t see them unless you were looking for them and they were embedded in the engravings in the white gold. The engravings were all I wanted. Unfortunately that ring didn’t come without diamonds.

Also, as far as the carriage rides go: I’ve been there, done that. It was cold and not nearly as romantic as one might imagine.
