Sadie Hawkins
14/f
There's this guy in school that I like that I dont're really talk to that often. I want to ask him to the Sadie Hawkins dance, but I'm not sure how to, thinking it might be kind of awkward because we don't talk that often. What would be a good way to ask him...and is it appropriate that I ask him? thanks.

ok, now what you should do is get more comfortable around him, and make sure he is more comfortable around you. Then, just one day start talking about somthing u have in common, then bring up the dance, wait for him to say sumthin, and if he just says yes or sumthin, then just go and ask him out, itz not that hard.

just go up to him and ask if he wants to go to the dance with you. dont plan a speech or anything because that just sounds cocky ya know. act natural like you know him like a best friend. dont stress. and remember guys feel the same way when they want to date or go to a dance with u. U have the guts i know you do. u can do it. i hope that helped.=)

just it up and say "will you go to the dance with me" it is the same way a guy feels when he ask some girl out too.

It's entirely appropriate to ask him. As for the nervousness, awkward feelings, etc... welcome to our world! Guys have been dealing with that for generations.
The best way to ask him is alone. You don't want peer pressure influencing his decision, and just in case he says "No" you probably don't want it to be a public event. "Alone" doesn't have to mean in a dark alley or something, just a time when neither of you are surrounded by a group of friends. If you have a class together, tell him just before the bell that you wanted to ask him something and would he mind sticking around for a moment?
As far as how to increase your chances of getting a "Yes", here are some pointers:
(1) Look pretty. Hey, guys will be guys, and they like to see pretty girls. So wear a flattering outfit that day and do your hair and makeup with a little extra care. Don't go overboard, though - that'll scare him away.
(2) Don't prepare a speech. That's insincere and will make him feel nervous (after all, HE didn't get a chance to prepare notes). Just ask him.
(3) Flattery isn't necessary. The mere fact that you're asking him is compliment enough.
(4) The straightforward approach is best. Something like, "The Sadie Hawkins dance is coming up, and I think it would be a lot of fun to go with you. What do you say?"
(NOTE: Notice that you say, "I'd like to go with you" and not "I'd like for us to go together." The difference is that the first one says that he's a great guy, and the second one says that the two of you would make a great couple. That will set off his Anti-Commitment alarms! He's more likely to respond positively to a personal compliment than to your ideas about the future. After he accepts, THEN you an talk about "we" and "us". It seems a small thing, but it makes a difference.)
If he accepts, then say, "Great! You want to get together sometime and make plans?" Boom, you just scored two dates for the price of one, and got the chance to see how well you'll hit it off before actually going to the dance.
If he declines, then try not to be too upset about it. It's possible, for instance, that he's already been asked by someone else and it would be wrong for him to break that date, or maybe his older brother is coming into town that night. Try to smile and say, "Oh, that's too bad... maybe some other time?" Then, make sure to talk to him more often in the future, and maybe there WILL be another time.
Good luck!

It's Sadie Hawkins--course it's okay to ask him. Do what I did to get a date:
[say his name is george and mine is lea]
Lea: George!
George: Hey, sup?
Lea: You're cool. I'm cool. We're going to the dance together.
George: We are?
Lea: Yes. We are.
George: Oh. Okay.
