How do I get a guy to ask me out?

Tell him you enjoy your messaging back and forth but would like to have a conversation face to face or on the phone. You could ask him out with out actually asking him out on a date. See if he would like to go get a coffee or soda. Then maybe you could talk and become better friends and eventually move on from there. If you haven't talked to him in person you might find out that he is not as great as you think just by the way he acts. It is easy to be and act like some one your not on the computer, face to face you get to see their demeanor and judge for yourself. Just becareful in everything you do and good luck.
