advice for dates?

<p>there's this one girl i want to ask to the prom, but i don't ever see her except in the hallways once... anyone have any ideas on how i can ask her out? i don't want to just go up to her and ask, that would seem weird</p>

<p>^_^ Is she in any of your classes? o.o;</p>

<p>Get to know her first. If you can causually slip something like that into the conversation it might be more comfortable than asking blind. Plus if you get to know her you'll know if she is someone you would have fun with. </p>

<p>If you already know her it shouldn't be awkward to ask her, I am a girl and I asked my date. It was totally comfortable, but of course, we're going just as friends.</p>

<p>..that's the problem, i never see her except in the hallway... am i screwed? :( ?</p>

<p>Is it possible to sit down with her at lunch? It would be easier and more comfortable for you if you got to know her a little bit before you asked her to the prom. What about asking her out on a date before you ask her to the prom? That way you would be able to get to know her. If you're uncomfortable asking her to the prom because you don't know her, chances are you'll be uncomfortable at the prom with her. It may take a little bit of effort, but you should definately try to get to know her.</p>

<p>sounds like a plan, but how do i get over the momentary awkwardness?
and what do i talk about?</p>

<p>sorry if this seems really silly, but i'm EXTREMELY unexperienced with the whole dating and girlfriend thing</p>

<p>Trust me, I know what you mean. I've never had a boyfriend, although I've been turned down a few times. The only way to get over the awkwardness is to muster up the courage to do it. Getting turned down is not a huge deal. The only way to get any experience in the realm of dating is to jump in with both feet.
If you're nice and self-confident it will be attractive to her. Take the plunge and don't be afraid. I wish you the best of luck, even if she's not the right girl it will be easier next time.</p>

<p>out of curiosity, are you a junior or senior?</p>

<p>Confidence is the best thing to get over awkwardness (but please don't confuse that with cockiness).</p>

<p>Also, a prom is a VERY BAD first date. You don't want to have the first date worries during something as big as a prom (especially if it's a senior prom). Go to prom with a bf/gf or a best friend, go somewhere else for a first date.</p>

<p>theres no such thing as awkwardness, its in your mind pal, you really have nothing to lose, it seems like you muster up the worry of her feeling awkward if you do such a thing, and from that the fright of this is makin u too nervous to do anythin
just chill and go with it, girls want someone who are confident enough in themselves to go for what they want</p>

<p>adamo,</p>

<p>i'm a junior</p>

<p>good advice y'all, thanks</p>

<p>trust me, if the girl's worth it she won't let you feel akward for long. usually girls are really nice about it and should let you join them for lunch as jessetfan said (good idea!)</p>

<p>but definitely dont' straight out ask her. you don't have alot of time but i'm sure you can fit in atleast one date before.</p>

<p>I dunno if this is the place to ask about such things... lol
Your best bet is to try to get hooked up by a friend...or a friend of a friend. I'd suggest going out before prom so it's less awkward and so you can have more fun on the big night. If a hookup isn't possible, drop some questions...find out who she is. Once you know some stuff, find her, and go talk to her.</p>

<p>PS: Don't be afraid--You never know what people think. I pussied out and didn't ask the girl I wanted to go with. We both went with friends... Turns out she liked me. We hooked up after grad and started goin out. It was awesome! I had NO idea she liked me. Maybe it'll be the same for you?</p>

<p>i would avoid going through friends... and just go up to her yourself. since you just see her in the halls.. next time you see her say hi and start some small talk.. when there's a lull in the conversation ask for her number or ask her out</p>

<p>hey chris...did you ask her yet? :)</p>
