Asking a girl to prom?


Question Posted Tuesday March 9 2010, 9:37 pm

I want to ask a girl to prom and im not sure how to or even if i should. My issue is she is on prom court, and i know that the court members pair off, but im pretty sure thats just for marching in and pictures. So what should I do?

Additional info, added Thursday March 11 2010, 5:19 pm:
Dang she said no. She said "I think I'm going with __ , but otherwise I would've loved to" The word think gets me, whatever, there is always the hope she thought wrong but if I had competition I figured it was him, I don't understand why because they aren't dating and i know at one point he had a girlfriend idk if he does anymore, whatever he's a senior so he will be gone next year, plus there are more fish in the sea and I guess the important thing was I finally got up the courage to ask someone, it's a step in the right direction and she is around me alot so maybe it will eat at her and she'll change her mind, maybe not there is always next year and other dances next year besides prom..

If it were me, I would ask her casually, "Do you have a date for the prom yet?"

If she says "yes" then you dont even need to ask her to go with you. Even if she really doesnt have a date yet, it will allow her to avoid telling you directly that she doesnt want to go with you.

If she says "No, I dont." I would watch her carefully to see what her body language is saying. If she looks uncomfortable, and "stiff" she probably doesnt want you to ask her. (Dont confuse shy with stiff) If she says "No" and looks you in the eye, and her body language is open, that is your chance to ask her to go with you.

You can avoid a lot of embarrassing situations by learning to ask the right questions, and by paying attention to body language. Focus on the girl, and what she is doing, and not as much on your own feelings or insecurities. People usually are trying to tell you non-verbally how they feel, but generally most of us are so wrapped up in our own feelings, we dont pay attention to the signs.

Ok so I'm a chick and this is what I would want someone to do....
Flowers: Find out what her favorite type of flower is and get one or some or if you can't get her that kind get her something close to it.
Tell her how much she means to you and how much you like her and how you will fight for if should turn you down.
and finally if should turn you down and go with someone else respect her for it.
