I hope I'm not the only one
As a nicotene addict at university I would regularly sit on the back steps of the biology building puffing away between lectures. One day someone walked past and asked if I had a spare fag, I was about to respond with my stock reply (no, I intend to smoke them all) when I looked up and came face to face with the godess from the second row. She was in my ecology class but with a 150 students in the class we'd never spoken. From the top of her auburn highlights to the bottom of her pert C cups, she left me speechless, there may have been drool.

I handed her a ciggie while my brain's speech centre crashed liked windows vista faced with a deadline. "You're a life saver, I'll pay you back tommorow" she said and sauntered away. Yeah right, I thought.

Next day, same place, she actually comes up to me offers a cig and we end up chatting whilst smoking. Within 2 minutes it's clear that she is so far out of my league it's not even the same sport. I know I've got no chance but I'll kick myself if I don't try.

I prepared to deliver the standard text.

"So how'd you like to get a coffee sometime?"... yeah, ok
"Oh, right, well no harm you know....I'll see you round" and then exited with as much dignity as I can muster.

It was when I had just got round the corner that my brain finally kicked in and replayed the conversation that I did a full body cringe. She had said yes, but I was too embarrased to go back. So I found a new smoking spot and sat as far back as I could in lectures.

I still kick myself when I think about it, but at least now I wait for a reply before running for my life.

Nope
Definately not the only one... A couple of years ago I had a similar same thing - THE fit girl from class starts chatting... and I do exactly the same script, unfortunately I was told to go work with her group the day after in a science lesson...
