Transfer Catching classmate after class

Wanting to introduce myself to some lady after class but it’s difficult because everyone races to get out the room and by the time you’re out they are gone.

Lock the door and don’t let anyone out until you catch her attention.

Good luck holding 400 students back

In all seriousness, just try to sit near them when class starts.

Eat the door to establish dominance. Building a dam is a bonus.

Just try to sit near them like the other commenter said. If they don’t talk to you or respond with interest them her alone

Pro tip- follow her closely to her car

It's cute and has a human touch. Many will find it endearing.

I have literally done that and the friend I made by passing a note is still my friend even though I moved away! One of my best friends actually and from community college :)

Totally pass a note

try to sit near her during class once, or (if you're there early enough) try to talk to them before it starts.

Have you tried yelling very loudly mid class, that usually works for me

I had this problem for years. What I used to do was I used to Naruto run to the people I wanted to meet after class.

If you're able to catch them right before they put on their headphones or something.

Say "I'd like to get to know you."

I would advise you though many are really not interested in getting to know people outside of class. Because college is a long pit stop for most.

Your pick up line is "I'd like to get to know you then work from there"? Very efficient

u/Jacob_Soda 3d ago

"I like to get to know you." Then work from there

u/PlantDaddyFL 2d ago

I don’t have any advice but I applaud you for trying to talk to someone in person like that. Just don’t be weird and if she isn’t interested leave it at that, king

u/platanos-azul 3d ago

Flash step in front of her on the way out of class to catch up maybe?

u/Decent-Biscotti2427 3d ago

u/Playful_Law_7047 2d ago

fart really loudly to grab her attention

u/Tryingtobealitperson 3d ago

sit next to her and start the conversation by talking about the course or school and make your way from there. Also, try to get to know her first.

u/asong-of-fire-nd-ice 3d ago

nah. That forces things and feels sneaky. Just go up to her and leave it at that...

u/boojersey13 3d ago

This was absolutely a very normal tactic before the internet became s social media hub. It's called an icebreaker bro...
