Kyro,

[censored] call her today.

If you really are that phobic about the phone, email her, but that is lame.

Try writing down what you want to say. Like:

"Hi, it's Kyro. I'm calling about Saturday night, would you like to go to XXX for dinner then YYY for drinks?" (Be specific if you cannot improvise well on the phone).

Then you can beg off. You don't have to have a conversation on the phone. You can say either something like "I am in the middle of something but I didn't want to leave you hanging" or "I am on my way out the door" or "I really suck at talking on the phone, I just freeze up, but I don't do that when talking in person."

If you call her on Saturday she may very well have made other plans (hell, she may have by now).

When I call and ask for a date, I never keep talking on the phone.

Call, ask, "ok cool, I'll see you saturday"...click

that should work zurv, but hopefully kyro will tape the conversation for us in case this happens:
kyro: hey, im heading out in a few minutes with some buddies, but i wanted to set up something with you for tomorrow night.
her: oh? where you guys going?
kyro: um, hrm,ahhh, .....click

A suggestion for you to consider - call her tonight. Say something along the lines of "I'm heading out with some friends in a couple minutes, but I wanted to set something up for tomorrow night. Let's do X"

I'm not an expert here, but I don't think that setting up a first date to do drugs is the way to go.

I also dislike talking on the phone to people I don't know particularly well, and I wouldn't do the above. You'll end up sounding unnatural if you try to read a prepared speech. Just figure out more or less what you want to say and call her.

Also, you might try having a few drinks first. Seriously.

Depending on the exact tone of what was said, this may be true. I think calling her either today or tomorrow is fine. Either way.

PS this shouldn't be that difficult, you already know she's keen to say hi, just call her with that knowledge in mind.

Ringing girls up to actually ASK them if they're keen to meet is worse. I hate doing that.

Keep it simple and confident.

-"When are we going to dinner?"

-"Ive decided to take you to dinner. Whens the best night for you?"

-"Saturday night I want to take you to dinner. Can you change whatever plans you may have had?"

Well, maybe I'll give her a call tonight, but another reason I was going to wait til Saturday is I've been busy all week. I was tutoring last night, and tonight my evil mom is making me scrub floors. I won't get home til a little bit later and she had said she'll be with friends later tonight, so I don't want to call her then. Tomorrow PSU is playing Michigan, and there is no chance I miss that game, so I said I'd call her after?

Make sense? Kinda?

We both know those are excuses. The sooner you call this girl the better...it'll be a light load off your shoulders anyways
