GirlMagnet Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Hey pplz. I just need help with this one question. I really like this girl, but I don't know how to ask her out. I don't want to say "Will you go out with me" because it sounds stupid, ("Going out..", when something goes out, it never returns.) Thnks...and also, where is a good place for a first date?
justsomeguy Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 First, how much do you know this person. How long etc? Second, It sounds better if you don't phrase these kinds of things as a question. So the idea is phrases like "let's do something sometime". If you don't know her that well, then you might want to try a way to see her around friends for a while. Oh, and a first date. I hate to think of it as a date. Don't call it that unless you are going to some place nice. Otherwise anywhere you would normally spend time with people, during meals etc.
hopelessly_naive Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 I agree that you might not want to call it a "date" but I wouldn't be quiet so vague as to say "let's do something sometime". Most of my friends and I tend to appreciate a more direct approach, that way there's no confusion and therefore generally less nervousness about the whole thing. The worst that can happen is she'll say no and if thats the case then it'll be easier for you to move on to someone new.
nitsuj Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 I'm not a pro at these types of things but I'm actually planning on asking someone out either tomorrow or friday. First off Ive known this girl for like a month but we arn't close close but we know alot of personal info about eachother. Anywho the way I picture myself asking her out is just finding her by her self. Then striking up a convo (the easy part) and then asking how much longer she is grounded for (I already know shes ungrounded on saturday). She will say saturday and I'll ask if shes doing anything or has any plans and then ask her if she would want to go see a movie. Which reminds me I gotta look up a time and a movie becuz you gotta BE SPECIFIC. Also if you are gonna suggest a movie then try to find a movie she wants to see:) GL!
Craig Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 ...and I'll ask if shes doing anything or has any plans and then ask her if she would want to go see a movie. My advice would be don't ask her if she's doing anything just ask if she'd like to see a movie. If she has plans that she doesn't want to miss she'll tell you and if she has plans that she'll cancel for you she'll tell you that she'd be happy to go see a movie. When you ask someone if they have plans they know your next question is going to be to ask them out and it kind of puts them on the spot. It's much more fair to just ask if they'd like to do (activity) with you on (date & time).
