<p>So there's this girl that I only share one class with. I see her just about everyday, and she knows that I exist. She's how you would say.. "different" from the rest of the girls, and shares the same interests as me (such as music, other basic stuff) and I somewhat like her. Let's call her Molly for the sake of this thread. We both happen to be Asian.</p>
<p>She was also a new student last year, and you guys know how tough it is on the new kids. But this year, she seems to have a plentiful amount of friends, so that's good. She's very sweet and nice. Like I literally have only talked to her like 4 times this whole year, the last time being yesterday when I had to deliver her a message from a friend's text.</p>
<p>That friend happens to be a close friend of mine (we'll call her Amy) that I knew since Elementary and is also good friends of hers (they're both in Yearbook), and Amy told me that Molly likes someone from her old school. But a couple of weeks after Amy told me that, she told me that they aren't really "talking" anymore.</p>
<p>Senior ball is coming up around April, and Molly is who I want to ask. But I'm afraid that it won't work out too well since I barely know her and she might have that guy in mind from her last school. I guess another problem would be is that she seems to be popular around this Asian group that she hangs out with, she's also really pretty, so that might lead to even more people wanting to ask her. </p>
<p>I was thinking maybe I should try to talk to her more, maybe add her on facebook or something (probably a bad idea) LOL. That way, it won't be so awkward when I ask her. And also, should I ask in those "cute" ways all those chicks like.... but not the one's that gain a whole lot of attention, or merely just asking her straight up.</p>
<p>Many thanks.</p>
<p>p.s. I also forgot to mention that I want to buy her prom ticket also. But Amy told me that she only wants to go to prom if she has the money for her OWN ticket, that she'd feel bad if anyone else buys her ticket. ~_~</p>
<p>I think you should just ask her to the prom. You really don’t have to come up with a step-by-step plan for it or anything; just go up to her tomorrow, pull her aside, and say, “I was wondering if you would go to the prom with me.” That’s it. If she knows who you are (like your name, lol), then it shouldn’t be too awkward.</p>
<p>I’m not sure what you mean by the “cute” way that girls like, but I would be straightforward. I’m a girl, and I like it when people are straightforward with me.</p>
<p>Remember, you have absolutely nothing to lose by asking her. And if you don’t ask her you’ll probably always be wondering “what if.” We only regret the things we don’t do, right? So go for it! And please tell us how it goes!</p>
<p>l/l-
You need to get solid reconnaissance from a gal pal if Molly(no Asians are named Molly) wants to be asked to the senior ball.
If your spy finds out that Molly’s open to it, then ask.
It is really early to be asking.
You can use the time until then to get to know Molly.</p>
<p>However, be prepared for Molly to say that she doesn’t know if she’s going yet.
Hate it when you get the stall.</p>
<p>Yeah, like Batllo said, you’ve got lots of time until prom, but if you’re worried about someone else asking her, plan to do it soon after the dance is announced. Adding her on facebook isn’t a bad idea…it’s an easy way to find out what kind of music, sports, etc. she likes so you can talk to her about them.
If you barely know her, doing one of those “cute” elaborate things might go over awkwardly and make her feel pressured to say yes. Save something like that for after you’ve become friends.</p>
<p>Since it’s a few months out I say you should try to talk with her more and you should add her on facebook (as long as you have had like a conversation with her).</p>
<p>yeah, you have license to facebook add as you see her regularly. (Maybe you could ask for “help” lol so you can get into her life a little more). Getting into her life, though it doesn’t have to be much, is the main thing now. You should get Amy to do some of the legwork later when prom is announced. Ask her, if she wouldn’t otherwise, to find if and who Molly would go to the prom with. Maybe you can get Amy to bring up your name and gauge based on that. Or you could straight up ask her lol.</p>
