13/f and I have a bestfriend.She really likes this guy,but she doesn't know if he has a girlfriend already.She's also said that she's not ready to ask him yet either.So she asked me to ask him,but I have no idea how to ask him.
What she is afraid of is rejection. If the guy rebuffs her at least she will find out what guys have to put up with since we are usually the ones who are charged with making the first move. So her just going for it will be a god growing experience for her. [ VoiceofReason's advice column | Ask VoiceofReason A Question ]

FIND out if he has a girlfriend because if he does his girlfriend can get mad and problems will happen so please be careful about that... well shes not ready to ask him? so if he says yes how is she going to have a relationship with him if she cant even ask him out herself? she needs to be the one asking.. if your the one asking for your bestfriend.. your friend will look like a scardy cat and a chicken because she couldnt ask herself.. how could they even have a relationship if she cant ask herself and face him? I personally dont think you should ask him yet.. first you need to find out if there is a girlfriend invovled.. if not.. then get your friend to SHE has to be the one doing it..
how does it sound if you say '' My bestfriend wants to ask you out'' that sounds really bad.. and like the other person said they might think YOU like him which will cause problems between you him and your bestfirned and none want that [ Lonesome12's advice column | Ask Lonesome12 A Question ]
DearAbby92 answered Thursday August 4 2011, 12:46 am: Well, I would start a conversation with him and see if he brings up a girlfriend. Or you could just play dumb, like if he tells you he went to the beach last weekend you can say "Oh, did you go with your girlfriend?". If he doesn't have a girlfriend, he'll probably be confused. You can just tell him you thought he was going out with someone, and since he isn't you can say something like "I just thought a sweet guy like you would have a girlfriend." Your friend should be the one doing the talking, because it doesn't look good to the guy if she doesn't have the courage to do it herself. For one, it weirds them out. And guys can be really dumb sometimes, so he might think that you like him instead of your friend, and that can cause problems.
Tell her to be flirty but not desperate. If she puts herself out there but plays hard to get, he'll chase her if he's interested.
