<p>This is something I've been wondering about for YEARS and I think it's been the major reason I've never had a girlfriend. Do I just say "will you be my girlfriend"? Or "do you want to be my girlfriend"? Or what?</p>
<p>THANKS</p>
<p>By the time you ask a question like that, you should know the answer. It should just be a formality.</p>
<p>You generally ask someone on a date first, but I have heard of people straight-out asking if someone wanted to go out with him/her.</p>
<p>Okay, I understand that, but when I finally ask her to be my girlfriend, what are the exact words I should use?</p>
<p>I’ve generally asked something along these lines: “So, do you want to go out with me?” or “Shall we make’th our acquainteth moreth thanth thou socialeth constrainteth alloweth?”</p>
<p>You don’t ask her to be your girlfriend.</p>
<p>You say, “Let’s hang out this Friday.” / “Let’s do something this Friday.” / etc. </p>
<p>Don’t make it a question, make it a statement. ^</p>
<p>Ask her out on a date first, then after that just hang out with her and then it’s assumed that you two are boyfriend/girlfriend.</p>
<p>See, Vitare, that’s what’s been confusing me. I’ve heard conflicting stories about that. Is it assumed?</p>
<p>Also, how does that work if we’re already friends and already hanging out?</p>
<p>I like this phrase: “So… are we officially dating?”</p>
<p>Her answer will tell you a lot about how she sees the relationship ^.^</p>
<p>i disagree with Vitare. hanging out a lot might put you in the category of being “together,” but you gotta ask someway for it to be ‘officially’ dating.</p>
<p>Pinned: When a brother gives his fraternity pin to his girlfriend, it’s a sign of her importance in his life.</p>
<p>That is the next step though.</p>
<p>How about: When you are introducing her to someone, say “this is my Girlfriend, [name of girl]”, and out of the corner of your eye, see how she responds.</p>
<p>I think the major reason you’ve never had a girlfriend is that you have to ask this question. Just picking social facts up won’t cut it, you need to practice too.</p>
<p>There comes a point after you’ve been hanging out where you really have to “confirm” that you are dating. What theredsmileyface said is probably one of the best ways.</p>
<p>Look, I’m not trying to hurt your feelings or anything, but this is one of the most ridiculous questions I’ve ever heard.</p>
<p>Seriously, things just happen. Also, I would say that at least 70% of the time, it’s the girl that makes you aware that she is now your girlfriend. Usually, it’s in your best interest to avoid this process for as long as possible.</p>
<p>Forsooth and hither, I wanna **** you. Or better yet, quote the fabulous writing in the hit game: Two Worlds</p>
<p>You don’t ask. At all. After you’ve gone on several dates/hung out together for a while, if the girl wants a relationship, then she’ll make it known and then it’ll automatically happen. Having to ask means that she probably isn’t ready/interested.</p>
<p>Actually when I was 14 I did ask a boy “will you be my boyfriend” and he said YES.</p>
<p>Usually the girl is the most interested in “confirming” that you are in a relationship, so she will ask “so…are we in a officially going out now?” or something of the sort. You could always ask a similar question if you find yourself wondering. If the two of you have been hanging out a lot and really like each other, it shouldn’t be that tough to figure out, but I wouldn’t recommend walking up to a random girl and asking if she wants to be your girlfriend.</p>
<p>at the same time, I’ve had experiences when the girl really is looking for a standard relationship and does naught about it.
it all depends on what youre looking fr and what she’s looking for</p>
<p>I would love it if some random guy came up to me and said “will you be my gf”, would I say yes, no, unless he was super rich + hot. It’s nice to know that you’re wanted, but the rejection on the guys part has got to hurt. That’s exactly why I’m glad I’m a girl and I don’t have to worry about rejection like <em>ouch</em>.</p>
