I know this question is asked to death, but I've read every one of them and they haven't helped. Maybe I'm just venting, but maybe someone can help me.
I can't ask a girl out. Simple. I've been alone with her a million times. The words get stuck in my throat like I'm choking on them. I can't push them out. I have her phone number. If I try to call her, my hand shakes so much I drop the phone. Well, not literally. I can't even do it online or in a text, even though I know that would just be insulting. I'm confident normally, but I freeze. I think things like she'll never want to talk to me again, she'll be disgusted, even though I know they're not true. I just want to ask her to go on a date with me, her to know how I feel about her. I think she felt the same way but just gave up on waiting for me. She deserves to be asked out. What's left for me to do?

A letter is a good way to start. Just be yourself and I'm sure she'll love you! And if she doesn't, well thats okay. Everybody in life gets rejected at some point, but then maybe she is not the right girl for you! Just keep looking! [ HelpfulHints123's advice column | Ask HelpfulHints123 A Question ]
sweeethoney answered Wednesday April 29 2009, 7:15 pm: aww! you should ask her out. just make it causal, like 'would you like to go out sometime to dinner..movie..etc'. its not sudden death either, she might think about it if she does say no then realizes she wants to. dont think about it to much, just ask her like it was one of your friends. youll be so much more relieved after you do it, no matter what the outcome.
good luck hun!

Maybe if you think of it more as if you are going to be hanging out together it would be easier.
A date can be very casual the first couple of times. Once you do the hard part of asking that first time with a good result, it will be much easier the next time.
