<p>...how good would you have to know the person would you say? For instance, would you ask someone out on date if you saw them around and think he or she is cute (but don't even know his or her name)?; would you ask someone out that you casually know (say "hi," "bye," "what's up?" once in a while)?; would you only ask someone out you know (as in talk to that person on a frequent basis)? </p>
<p>Thoughts?</p>
<p>As a guy, it should be the first one, in my opinion. </p>
<p>In reality, though, it’s the last one.</p>
<p>It would be good to know their name first, and at least have some basic information so if you get accepted when you ask, you’ll have something to talk about when you go out with her.</p>
<p>I think there should be some basic familiarity. If, for example, you are in a class with a girl but still don’t know her very well, I think it would be okay to ask her on a date. I have done this before. It didn’t turn into a relationship(we only had two dates total) but it wasn’t awkward. </p>
<p>In fact, I think the inverse(asking a girl that you know extremely well) is worse. Girls tend to put guys in categories pretty early on. Once you’re in the “friend” category it’s tough to get out of it. If your first interaction is asking her on a date, you might still get rejected, but you’re not going in to the friend category.</p>
<p>If I were you, I wouldn’t ask someone on a ‘date’ date if I didn’t actually know them. Ask them to be study buddies first, or go out for dinner as part of a large group. Once you get to know them a little, you’ll have a better idea of how to ask/what to do on the date.</p>
<p>I agree with the 2 posts above me. You should definitely know her name lol. Asking a girl out that you have a class with is pretty much the perfect way to do it. You’re not really even friends, just classmates but you know her and she knows you.</p>
<p>Asking out a best friend is really not a good idea. It takes a lot to make a girl see you differently when she already has you in the friend zone. I mean, you’d basically just have to grab her and kiss her to make her maybe change her mind lol</p>
<p>Usually the first for me. Break the ice somehow, usually best if you say something related to the environment, at some point in your short conversation be like “I’m John, what’s your number?” then “well i gotta go, but hey we should hang out sometime! what’s your number?”</p>
<p>That easy. Girls don’t want to be asked out on some formal “date” to get to know eachother unless you’re…already dating lol. It’s too much commitment for college girls to go on a “date” as opposed to “just hanging out”.</p>
<p>I usually just roll up on a biddy and say some somethin’ like “yo baby you lookin’ real fine why don’t you hop in and I’ll give you a ride” but I have a ferrari so this might not work for you.</p>
<p>Should I buy you a drink or do you just want the money?</p>
<p>Man, just do it. What is there to lose? Nothing!</p>
<p>I agree with JanofLeiden. Make sure to also play your music really loud. If you can, drive around with your shirt off or at least a wife beater. With this technique you could take maybe 2 or 3 girls on a date at once</p>
<p>ROFLMAO. Loving the advice haha. To bad I don’t have a Ferrari :(</p>
<p>I tend to get to know people a bit before I ask.</p>
<p>asking someone out on a date shouldnt be something that you plan, it should be as casual as possible so that if you get rejected, you can shrug it off… but if you plan it and you anticipate it and you show great feeling when asking a girl out on a date… you will be hurt if she says no… you can ask almost anyone out and it doesnt have to be to the movies and you could ask her to study or something so it wont be awkward if you dont know her well</p>
<p>remember, being spontaneous means you have a higher chance of not seeming clingy or desperate</p>
