Homecoming.


Question Posted Thursday October 7 2004, 9:06 pm

Hey, theres this girl in my pe class and I think she might like me. Well, I kinda like her too though. She acts kinda like it and gives me hugs sometimes and stuff and jokes around with me and stuff, and she seems like she always brings the topic of Homecomming up to her friend, lets call her Jenny. Anyways so she always says to Jenny that sits next to her when we sit on numbers for role call that she needs a date for Homecomming. But... I'm kinda scared to ask her to Homecomming because I don't know what to do.. I mean I know you go out to dinner and stuff and the guy drives the girl... but I don't have a car yet do I have my dad or mom drive us to the restaurant and then to the dance? I know to get her flowers or a corsage... ugh I don't know what to do! Someone tell me what to do about this and what should I get her and pretty much walk me thru the date! I mean like I could go with my friends or her friends because she says to her friend that all her friends are going to this fancy restauraunt with their dates and she wont get to go unless she has a date... so who drives and stuff? What do I do.... Help, I'm 14/m.
Sorry if this was a little long.

Well you should deffinitly ask her because it seems to me that shes sending you signals. If you dont want your parents to drive you then you two could meet at the restaurant and then have like an older cousin or if you have a brother or sister. Getting her floweres would be really nice, nothing extremely fancy though just like some carnations or roses. Try and find out her favorite color flowers! At my school we didnt have to get our dates corsages but i saw a couple of people get flowers for there dates.
Just relax if she likes you and you like her then dont be nervous because theres nothing to be nervous about!
Hope I helped!

You should def. ask her out to the dance. Your probably going to have to have your parents drive you, but itll be alright.
<br>
~ ok well you need to ask her if she has a date to homecoming, even though u already kno she doesnt, ACT STUPID! lol you dont want her to think u were stalking her or something ahaha anyway, ask her to meet up where everyone else is at and you guys can talk and hang out. then you could get a ride with someone to the dance. if you think it mite be wierd, ask her and just be honest *girls like that* just say, "hey do you think it would be to wierd if we gotta ride with (so so) to the dance, cuz i dont have a car and i didnt kno if you would be cool with my mom driving me so..." and take it from there. you guys will have fun. just be really sweet to her and compliment her on her dress! lol okay, if you need anything else let me know!

You'll probably need to have mom or dad drive you, hehe, though my mother drove me and my boyfriend to homecoming until I had a car. I usually dated younger guys and had to be the one picking them up, lol! There is no set way you have to do things. Just ask the girl, believe me as one girl speaking for another, she wants you to ask her. Maybe she can come over for dinner at your house before going to the dance, since you don't have a car. The important thing is to just have fun. If you enjoy yourself, and maybe get a kiss, than that would be a good time to ask her to be your girlfriend.

Definately ask her to the dance! You have nothing to lose. If you are too shy, ask her friends if she was interested in going with you. If signs point to yes, then go for it! Since you really like her, why miss out on an opportunity to ask her to the dance? If she even likes you the tiniest bit, then she would never say no :) Say, "Hey, I don't have a date to the Homecoming yet. Wanna go to the dance with me?" when she says yes, say "Okay, cool (smile). Maybe we could grab a bite to eat beforehand. How does that sound?" when she says that it sounds cool, say "Any suggestions on where we could go?" That's when she should bring up the the fancy restaurant her other friends are going to. When you go there, bring at least $120.00 to pay for you and her. Really, it depends on how much dinner costs. Ask your mom and/or dad if you can borrow that much money, and promise that you will do housework to pay off the debts. Unless you have the money to pay for it yourself. Anyway, tell her to come around your house at maybe, half an hour before you, her and her friends with their dates plan to meet for dinner. When she arrives, tell her how beautiful she looks, and pin the corsage on her or, if it has an elastic band, hold her hand and put it around her wrist. Your parents are going to want to take pictures, I can almost guarantee. When that's all over, say, "Shall we go?" and lead her out to the car. Open the door for her and let her into the car first Anyway, have you and your parents pick her up to go to the restaurant (Clean out your car really good and spray it with Febreeze. Oh, and remind your parents beforehand to not make any remarks about you and your date). Make small talk on the way there and at the restaurant ("I've never been to this restaurant. Is it good? I heard it has good food." or something along those lines). When you get there politely introduce yourself to the other girls and their dates (Hello, I'm (your name). I'm (girl's name)'s date.") Throughtout the dinner, keep an eye on your money. Ask her what she's ordering first, then see the price of it. Try to order something not too more expensive than that. When you pay at the end, it'd be pretty embarassing if you couldn't afford the dinner. Anyways, smile at her and offer her a bite of your food (don't be offended if she says no, she might not like what you ordered). At the end, say, "Oh, don't worry, (name), I'll pay for your dinner (and dessert, if she orders some)." When she thanks you, say "Oh, it's no problem at all." then smile. As for the dance, you should definately ask her to dance every slow dance (she might fast dance with her friends). When the last slow dance comes around, ask her once more, then say after about 30 seconds of dancing, "You know, (name), I really like you. Would you like to go out with me again sometime?"

I definately think you have a chance with her...since she sounds like she's been droppin' a lot of hints.

Good luck with all you do! I really hope you have good luck! :)

First you should ask her to the dance because it is pretty obvious that she wants you to ask her. You don't have to be gf bf to do to one of those dances you know. Picking her up for the dance see if the two of you can get a ride with some other people that are going because not everyone has a car and besides it might take the pressure off if you go with a group. When you go to get her from her house compliment her girls like that. At the dance be polite to her you know like you are suppose to. After the dance you and the other can go out to eat some where and get to know each other better. When it comes to dropping her off be gentlemen like you know walk her to the door tell her that you had a nice time being with her give her a kiss on the check or mouth ( you decide ) and then tell her good night and you will see her in school. I hope that I help you but not you can stop by my column and I will try to help again.

Well, fist of all, the girl tottally wants you to ask her. It's obvious! She keeps constantly bringing it up! You just need to go for it! Ask her out to the dance. As for the transportation, talk to her about it and ask other ppl who can't drive and see what they're doing. You can never go wrong doing what your friends are doing, and as long as your date agrees with how you should get there- you'll be fine! I think that it would be a good idea to go out to dinner with her friends. This shows her that you geniuinely like her and want to make her happy. Really talk to her friends tho (and their dates!) and get to know them. She'll think that ur totally awesome for bringing up convo's at dinner and she'll see that you're a good guy. Oh and you MUST pay for her dinner!!! If she says no, insist on paying and make sure u bring enough cash to cover both meals and some extra cash just in case. At the dance, ask her to dance alot and don't dance w. anyone else unless there's a good reason for you to! (example- her best guy friend asks if he can dance w. ur girl and u being the polite guy you are say sure, may i steal a date w. yours)As for the rest of the dance, go with the flow. Give her the corsage when everyone else does it. If you ever get nervous and don't know what to do, just look at what other ppl are doing. As for the girlfriend thing, wait until the end or atleast the middle of the night. If you still feel that you like her, ask her out. Maybe on a slow song while yall are dancing. Then that could be "your song." (girls eat that stuff up!)

I hope I Helped!
Please email me to tell me how it went i'm dying to know!
Luv, Becks!

PS- compliment her! When you first see her be like "wow! you look gorgoeus!!!" I'd so be in love with any guy who did that!

Hey this is WaDe!
Don't be nervous to ask the girl to the dance! As long as you ask her first, u got it made! Don't ask her to be your girlfriend just ask her to the dance. Take one step atta time! If she says yes get
your dad to drive yall ova to the dance (your dad will undastand
what u doin!). After that THEN go to the restaraunt, because theres a possibility you or her might get something on your suit!

--Good Luck--WaDe

Aw! It sounds like she likes you and is trying to hint about homecoming. For asking her, almost every girl LOVES it when a guy gives her flowers, so I'd recommend giving her some and asking her. A lot of guys at my school have been doing that and it really works! Maybe you can ask her to be your gf at the dance near the end.

As for the actual date, have your mom or dad pick her up, then you guys could go to the restruant with her friends. When you pick her up, get out, open the car door for her, and give her the corsage- I recommend the pin-on kind. Basically treat her well, do polite things like opening the door for her, girls love that. HAng out with her and her friends, maybe introduce her to your friends at the dance (it'll make her feel special). Then at the end of the night ask her to be your girlfriend.

GooD LucK!

Edit: You go to Amador too? That's soooo weird...Are you a freshman?

S_C answered Thursday October 7 2004, 9:30 pm:
start out with just the dance

Make it a group thing, maybe add in somebody you know that can drive. If it comes down to family, do you have an older sibling (better than parents) if not, then resort to your parents. For my school, it's the big game, then right afterwords until midnight it's the dance, so it's not really that formal, just nice dressed. So I guess my advice won't be as good.

But go up to her, and say, would you and a few of your friends like to come with me and a few of my friends to homecoming? Or be like would you like to come with me (or meet me) at the dance. Don't make it too formal. And nah, it'd be easier to just go to the dance, then if you think you like her, ask her out.
