How do I ask her out?

[The Foozzler]

Making friends is worse that dating.

There is a nice mom at daycare that I see most days during drop off. Our kids are in the infant room together and they get along well. I just found out she is also not working this summer. I would love to have more people to hang out with. I am the type that hates being alone. How do I ask her to hang out this summer? Should I try and get her number or email? Should I tell the teacher I am interested and have her relay the message?

Yes! Write your info down and give it to her. Or find her on FB and send her a message letting her know you're around if she'd like to have a playdate.

Def give her your info! I'm sure she's thinking the same thing about you!

[helicase]

Like others are saying, give her your phone number/e-mail address and say it would be fun for the kids to hang out this summer. I'm sure she is thinking the same thing about you, too.

So I give her my number and wait for her to make the next move?

I know! I wish I had one to break the ice!

I was "making friends" with a girl at daycare pickup the other day and I asked her if she had a card (i mean a business card haha) but she said no, and I didn't either so then she got her phone out (I didn't have mine) and she wrote in my email address. But then I wondered should I have given the phone number too?! She has not emailed me.

Making friends is so hard! Now I'm wondering what to say when I see her again which will happen probably soon. Is her lack of email an indication that he has decided against the friendship?

aaah this stuff sucks.

Are you planning on signing up for any classes this summer? You could get the info then bring it up in conversation and ask her if she wants to sign up too? I think the easiest way would to bring up that you both aren't working this summer and casually mention a play date.

Maybe next time make sure you have your phone and say something like oh I have my phone now I can put your info in!

But but what if she doesn't WANT to be my friend and therefore that would put her in an awkward position?!!

I felt like we would "click" because she also works f/t like me, lives about 1 mile from me, is still nursing her 14 month old and was wearing sneakers so she MUST enjoy exercising too! haha.

[mumegs]

Just say hey the kids get along really well, I am off in the summers too we should set up a playdate sometime! And then exchange info if she says yes. I don't know I've never made mommy friends because I work too much

[Regina Philange]

This whole thread is cute.

Yes, i would give her your info, and then wait for her to contact you. Which she of course will! Who could resist the Foozzle?

Then she would probably give you her info but ignore calls or be "busy" when you ask to hang out.

But who wouldn't want to be your friend?!

I agree with everyone, have your contact info prepared and next time you see her ask her if she'd like to set up a play date...park or something. I'm so excited for you lol!

[The Foozzler]

I am so awkward in person! I like the idea of breaking the ice by talking about an activity. We are going to do music class, so maybe I can mention that to her.
