There is a woman in my place of work, that I would like to ask out, we have talked a few times, we both work in separate departments by the way, so we don't run into each other very often. There is definitely a mutual attraction, as we have both stated such.

First of all I should point out that she is from another country she was raised in Russia, she has made it known that she is an old fashion girl and would prefer the man do the pursuing, my question is this do woman these days still like to be pursued by men, put on a pedestal, now when I was a young man this was the norm, but I thought woman had moved beyond those times where things are more equal between the sexes.

don't worry about the times or what everyone else is doing. you are doing exactly what you should be doing. she will let you know how to proceed, just keep talking to her whenever possible. it would also help if you could contact her outside the workplace. get her digits dude

She told you she is old fashioned and if that makes you feel like you need to pursue do it.
The bottom line is you want to ask so ask no point in wasting time.
Make it casual like coffee or something see how it goes no need to worry about pedestals just yet

I agree with rlynne, keep it casual until she either voices that she'd like something more serious, or something like that.

Maybe take a walk in a park? Coffee is always good, too.

...ask her to say ..moose and squirrel...

i like the way that feels on my tongue...

First of all you say she's old fashion, so that right there should tell you she wants you to make the first move. Second, women still enjoy being pursued, always have, always will. I'm not so sure about the pedestal thing, sounds like a bad idea though. As far as women wanting to be equal to man, that's only in the workplace pretty much. Women want to be treated like women.

when a woman says she is "old-fashioned" that means you can forget about casual sex...gonna have to see a wedding ring before you get anything more than a peck on the cheek.....

Deserts always taste sweeter when you have to wait, then it will be much more satisfying to the palate, had to wait one year with my ex, before I had any sweet deserts, but it was worth the wait, I am a very patient man

Trust, what an old fashioned type from rusha would like... ask her on a friendly date into town not just one location but move from shop to shop and figure out what types of things she likes her style and such, ALL you NEED to buy her is an afordable neckless and a cup of coffe avrage of 25-30$ total for date. The next day having things to talk about that youve found shes into PRICELESS.

i love it!! no necklace though books art music good stuff

When you hear a girl say shes old fashioned, red flags should pop up. Sounds like she wants to be pampered, have the guy pay for everything, and doesn't want any intimacy for a long time possibly till marriage. Now this was fine in the old days but nowadays days, Ive seen guys fall for this line and end up going broke trying to please the woman of their "dreams." Once the money that supports the fun and fantasy runs out, thats when the girl takes the old fashion highway out too. If you really like this girl for whatever reason personality, looks, brains, or all the above, take her on dates like strolling around a lake, the park, walk on a hiking trail, casually walk around the docks, boardwalk on the beach, or anything really just not jumping onto a cruise to the bahamas, weekend getaway to a Bed n Breakfast, or other fantasy trip. You save those ideas for real girlfriends.

"Old-fashioned doesn't mean she wants to be 'pampered'...it means she wants to be respected, not taken down the block to the empty parking lot for a quickie and a blow job just because she spoke to a guy. Old-fashioned means she is looking for a relationship not just casual sex.

She is working so if she wants, she will pay for things to surprise him (make him dinner, buy him something special). But also feels that if a man asks her out, he should pay, unless they are just friends and have discussed going 'Dutch'.

OK,,,IF,,you want to have HER see you as a man of CHARM, WIT,,and a romantic soul,,(as I LIVE THAT,lol) THIS is my best for you to do..

Write her a letter,,YES,,,lol, write her a letter,,something like this,

her name, I thought I might write you this as a means of asking you to have dinner with me some night thats appropriate with our work week? IF, you might want to?
Since that first time we talked, and you said-->WHATEVER SHE AND YOU HAD DISCUSSED FOR (you) TO KNOW SHE LIKED YOU?
Tell her its HER option as to where(restaurant) or what place that might be at,,,let her know she can meet you there,,or you can pick her up..tell her,,,nothing more to this,,but for us to have a relaxed meal,while we just talk as friends and see if we might have a chemistry between us to feel.
Now,,slide that all in as you give her your number and explain that she can call you,,or CATCH you at your work place to let you know..

NOW------>the BIGGIE HERE,,,on your computer have THAT translated into her mother-land Russian language(print it out on your printer) and then place it in an envelope and seal it,,,with just her first name on it,,and when the times right at work,,,pass that to her,,saying excuse me,,I just wanted to give you something,,,as you hand that to her...then say,
ITS just a thought I wanted to share with you,,,as you walk away..

IF,,,SHE likes YOU in THAT WAY,,,she will LOVE THIS!!!
NOW,,that is figuring SHE DOES READ AND SPEAK RUSSIAN,,,,
If you try THIS,,let us know how it went?? and whatever you try,,Good Luck man..

I like it

Eileena you are right on the money about this woman, she is a woman that values morals and respect, as do I, and yes she is seeking a relationship, so we are both on the same page with this, by the way I am a 50yr old man and I've had sex, big wooff, not that I don't like sex anymore, but I need a little more than that at my age or any age, I thought that was why most of us are on this site, to find a relationship.

Nah I'm just here to flirt around and make new friends but and I hope you make it happen.

I personally don't trust those Russian women. They are just a little to beautiful. They have been trying to come to Kentucky for years. Legend is they are after our Kentucky fried chicken recipe..........

Or they might be after the Whiskey hide all the bourbon the Russians are comming
