Okay so i need some help here from my unicycling friends on how to ask this girl i like to prom. This girl has been on my track and cross country team for three years and I have always liked her but I always thought she wasn’t interested in me but a few months ago her mom told my mom that this girl thought I was funny and cute:D So I started thinking and I believe the reason I thought she never seemed interested in me is because she is really shy. She is a Sophomore so she does not have a date and cannot go alone and I am a senior so I really have no fear of rejection from her. The problem is that i am also shy so I am not willing to do anything too drastic. So I need some simple ideas of how to ask her. I was thinking about just asking her but i know girls like to get asked in a fun way so I would like some ideas. I was thinking about spelling out the word “Prom?” made of sour patch kids and sealing the bag then giving it to her since i know she likes those. Let me know some ideas please:)
Just ask her and be confident, chicks dig confidence.
Hey, wanna go to prom with me?
If you already have anything set up, like you have a limo rented or you are doing something special, you can always add that. I’m assuming this isn’t some girl you have never spoken to, otherwise that could be kind of awkward.
I have started to talk to her a lot more since track started this season so I become more comfortable with asking her, so asking her should not be awkward at all.
Well then just do it. It’s not something you have to be fancy about. In fact you are probably more likely to screw it up if you are fancy.
The girl I took to prom, I literaly had to ask, because she didn’t want to go at all, in the end it actually would have been more fun going with just my friends and leaving her behind, but whatever, you only live once, and unless you are a failure you only go to prom once.
I like your approach, although personally I would avoid the words “hey” and “wanna”.
I would avoid the fancy stuff – skywriting and the like – for a marriage proposal (to a woman you have in the bag, so to speak). What if she says no to this great and wonderful honor you are bestowing upon her? You don’t want to look like a fool. Simple, sincere, and direct.
If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be. But it might be meant to be – and then you blow it. She likes you. You are having a great golf game. All you have to do is avoid hitting the ball into the sand trap. Simple, sincere, and direct.
Dig a hole out of the football field that says her name and then “will you go to prom with me?” Then put cement in it and let it set over night. Ask her out on a date where you two climb to the top of the stadium and sit in each others arms and ask her, she’ll love it.
Not if they are both on the track team :p.
I used words like “Hey” and “Wanna”, because sticking with casual words that you are used to will keep you relaxed, which generally in stressful situations is usually a better thing than using words you wouldn’t normally use.
That being said, it is quite possible that those aren’t words that he would normally use, so substitutions would work well. Personally I would probably use “hey”, but not “wanna”.
Just for curiosity, in these proms, you HAVE to go with a person of the opposite sex? For example, I am girl so, if nobody ask me, I can’t go to the prom because I don’t have a ‘partner’? Or I can go by myself but everybody will look at me and say : “Ha ha ha, what a loser!”?
I don’t believe going by yourself is such a bad thing. People go as groups of friends and have lots of fun. A semi example of this would be…
Hmmm… I understood. So I wouldn’t be a loser.
I think it depends on the school and the time.
When my brother went to prom, him and a bunch of his friends rented Tuxes and a limo and filled it with beer. These days they would have been top of the party but back then, they were lame because everyone else there was in couples, no single girls there, so it ended up being just a bunch of drunk guys.
For my prom, most people were there in groups as opposed to in couples, so in my case my date ended up being more of a burden. I still had a decent time, but my friends had a great time, certainly more fun than I did.
That being said though, I was totally knackered from way too much stuff going on that week and couldn’t think straight to save the life of me. When my date and I got back to my place we barely made it 10 feet from the door before we both fell asleep.
Indeed you would not.
On another note, I just came up with something that might work for your situation. Ask her like know shill say yes, I’ve never tried this, but I should… I should indeed.
Say “Hey, how are you? Wanna go to the prom with me? Why not?” without leting her answer before you say the 3 questions! Hahah
But, for boys it is not bad thing going to the prom by yourself 'cause you’ll go with your friends and etc but… Girls go in groups too? Or if a girl isn’t invited by a guy to the prom she’ll be like ‘Oh, I’m so ugly! Nobody wants me! How will I go to the prom now?’?
This doesn’t seem to add up…
Just man up and ask. It’s as simple as that. If you’re shy and you never ask, then it’s a definite no.
I said the SAME THING
I don’t know about other proms, but at mine it was groups of girls and boys. Groups of just guys or just girls is kind of lame, looks like a pity party.
Okay so I’ve been thinking, this year she signed up to be a manager so that means at a track meet she will be writing all the times down so when she is alone I will sit next to her and talk to her and ask her to prom. Does that sound okay?
That sounds like a good idea right there.
Why don’t you just ask her tomorrow? When is the prom?
