Diesel_Power Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 I posted this in the second chances forum but i havent gotten any replies. My ex-girlfriend and I have been broken up since December. She is a junior in high school and I am a senior. We started talking again about a month ago and things have been going great. She said she wanted to take it slow and just be friends for a while, and I respected that. Things have progressed and now she is letting me take her on dates and take her out to lunch. We talk a lot now and are a lot happier than we were when we were dating. We've built a friendship (which I believe is the foundation of a good relationship) that we never had when we were in a relationship. So basically, I feel things are going well. Here is my dilema: prom is coming up at the end of April and I really want to ask her. She's given me hints that she wants to go to prom with me, so I feel that shouldn't be a problem. What I'm having trouble with is that I want to ask her to be my girlfriend again. I don't know whether I should kill two birds with one stone and ask her to go to prom and to be my girlfriend at the same time, if I should ask her to be my girlfriend before I ask her to go to prom, or if I should ask her to be my girlfriend after I ask her to go to prom. I thought about asking her on our date we have planned next week to go to prom as my girlfriend. I don't know whether I should just flat out explain my feelings or ask her or if I should give her a letter at dinner explaining the same thing. I also thought about giving her a bag of chocolates and a sweet tea (her favorite drink) and asking her to prom when we get back in my truck after dinner. If she were to say yes, I was thinking I might be like, "In that case, would you be willing to go to prom as my girlfriend?" I don't know what I should do or how I should do it. Any help is much appreciated!
roaminghart11 Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 You should definitely ask her to prom. I think your idea of asking her, and then if she says yes, asking if she would go as your girlfriend is very sweet. You guys should definitely discuss your feelings and her feelings about officially dating. Are you willing to continue being friends/going to prom if she is not ready to date yet?
