Question Posted Wednesday September 29 2010, 6:56 pm
All right. I'm not super popular at school and I've only had a couple boyfriends, one of them I've dated twice, but he really wasn't my type and he was mostly after sex, which, I am glad to say, I never agreed to. But, anyway, there's a homecoming dance coming up on Friday and a lot of people have dates for the dance afterwards...
Any tips on asking a guy out? I have really bad issues asking them out since I'm, like, super shy and a bit self-conscious... I don't do sports either, don't know anything about them. I'm 16/F and I mostly write fiction... No, I don't like aliens, sorry. :(
I don't know if that helped or not, but hey, maybe.

When asking a guy out, you just have to be yourself and go for it. It doesn't matter if you are shy or not, if you put your mind to it and gather up your courage, you can do anything. Just walk up to a guy you kind of like and say "hey, I was wondering... are you going to homecoming?" or "are you availible Friday night? (or whatever day the homecoming dance is)". If he says yes, ask him if he would like to go with you. A guy will love you when you show him you love yourself. Keep a conversation going by commenting on something he has, asking for his opinion, or talking about something he likes. Find a common interest you two have also and go with it, it will help you connect more. Do not forget to smile and make sure to thank him after homecoming so that he knows you appreciate what he did for you :)
Never be afraid to follow your heart. Put a smile/grin on your face, take a deep breath, then go for it. You have got nothing to lose, only more to gain <3 [ gr8fruit's advice column | Ask gr8fruit A Question ]
