Question Posted Friday September 11 2020, 12:09 am
I’m a brand new freshman in Hs and corona has stopped us from being in person. So we are on zoom all day. In my art class there’s a Junior. His name is Prince and he’s extremely cute. But I can’t talk to him because I have no idea how to look him up on social media or chat with him while on zoom without everyone seeing my business. Homecoming is coming up and I want to go with him though I don’t know how to ask when we aren’t in person nor have met face to face. I’m really stuck. And I know a little bit about him. The more and more I learn the more I like this guy. Please help me :(. Thanks so much.

That's a legit request and one you'll use for that purpose but also to reach out socially. You can even mention that it would nice to reach out to peers having not spoken to other people outside of the four walls of your home in months.
See what happens there. If you get to know the guy and become a friend you can then see where stuff leads. You need to stop thinking in terms of psyhical attributes and what makes him "cute" to you. You have to figure out if he's a decent person or not and jives with you as that's most important.
If you do get his contact info you could send him an invite for virtual coffee if you can't be in same room and to talk and see what happens. Half of these people in class also probably long for the same thing to be able to interact with peers so harvesting contact information isn't a bad thing provided you show interest in them too and not just this one person.
You mentioned a dance but that you're still not able to see anyone in person. Are you sure even if you were given a date that this thing is going to go off? It might not given the circumstance but you could mention to him "How do you feel about Homecoming if it even happens?" Go from there and see if his receptive of going with anyone if it did.
