im allowed to go to prom now

crizlee

but i have no date :/

the girl that i met at the beginning of the school year who got me into partying and just having fun isnt with me anymore and ive been upset about that a few months, i was planning on asking her to prom but it was too late. i see a few girls that i want to ask out, but i dont know if they're single or not or if it would just come off being wierd stalkerish since its the middle of the year and ive never really talked to them much. plus im afraid i wont get that special feeling that i got with the girl who i bonded so close to.

i'm sure there's one or two girls you are acquainted with enough to ask.. here's a secret: sometimes the girls are just as scared as you. and they might be secretly hoping you'll ask them. what have you got to lose? i hope you go to the prom and have a great time! i didn't get to do any of that, and i alwyas look at prom gowns and flowers and dances and all of that stuff rather wistfully... anyway, the best way to grow as a person and overcome some of your fears is to just do things you're afraid to do...you'll find that they weren't as scary as they were in your mind. good luck.

I didn't have a date till the last minute either. So I took a HUGE chance and asked this smokin hot babe that had graduated the year before. I barely knew her and she was working at Albertson's while going to college. She said YES, I was blown away.

Go for it! I just went to my 20 year reunion and we talked about how so many of us wish someone would have asked us out. Remember too that it's the Prom not your wedding.... You don't have to have your soul mate, just go and have a hoot!

Make sure you take pictures. I never went out with girl I went with again. But we had fun and are friends to this day.

Its true, many girls do secretly hope someone will ask them. You never know, you just MIGHT answer someones prayers by asking them to the prom. Someone wanted to take me, but the person who studied with me discouraged me, warning me of worldly association, (I did and still do get hit on a lot), drinkiing, worldy music etc, and I didn't go. Imagine my total shock when I learned that THEY went to the prom, the hypocrite. Again, please ask someone, even if they say "no", go by yourself, you may meet someone else who didn't get asked but went anyway.

Just get the word out that your'e available.

I didn't get to go to my prom. It was full of worldy association. I had to set an example for the rest of the girls from my congragation that went. Yep, all the other girls my age went to the prom. I did get to go with them to pick out their dresses, and I got to hang out with them while they got ready for the prom. I helped with hair and makeup, ect...*sigh*..I felt like Cinderella

Ask those girls out now. There are plenty of things to do between now and the prom that you could do with a date. Don't worry about hearing them say no thanks. If they don't want to go out with you, it is their loss, not yours. Realizing that the word "no" from a women replying to an offer to go out is not fatal is knowledge that will serve you well later.

just start up small talk (include the prom as subject not a question as you are asking her out) and say something like geeeeeeeeez, I have to find my lady prom look at her and ask her if she have her Boy prom ? ... If she says NO well then tell her ... "this ain't true ??? isn't it (it's a compliment) that's why I didn't dare ask you yet but Now I have to, what do you think ? do we matche for this prom ? something like that ... (it's not asked the same way ... it's just a bit easier if you are shy)

When is the prom? Next weekend? In two or three months?

I don't envy you crizlee. I've been out of high school for a couple of decades+ but I do remember the "battle of the sexes" quite vividly. They were brutal with all the hormones flowing and everyone posing. On the other hand, if I knew then what I know now...

Here are some suggestions. When you see a girl you are interested in strike up a converstation. Keep it light and short. You are looking for signals of interest from her or "buy signals." If you make a silly joke about something, she might laugh a little harder or longer than you expected. If you ask her a question, she might give you way more detail than you expected. If she touches you, that is a very strong buy signal. If you think that she is indeed sending you buy signals, you must close the deal. Don't ask her out. Ask her for her phone number, preferably her home phone number. Her personal cell phone number would be the next best thing. If she offers you anything else but that personal number, you have probably misread the buy signals and that is not the end of the world. She might ask for your number instead of giving you hers. If you want to give it to her but don't hang around the phone waiting for a call. Chances are she won't dial you up. Again, this is not the end of the world. If she gives you the number, don't linger around talking. Put the number in your pocket and walk away. Do not call her that night or even the next day. Wait a couple of days and give her a call. A lot of women like gabbing on the phone, but shy away from that trap. Keep the call short and to the point - "do you want to go out with me?" Make sure that you have something specific in mind when you ask the question though. None of this "do you want to go do something with me" stuff. When you go out, keep the date light and fun. Let her do most of the talking. Guys get in trouble when they start running their mouths.

Getting a girl to go out with you is a numbers game. Strike up conversations at every opportunity and always keep an eye out for those buy signals. At school, walking down the street, hanging out at the mall - if sombody strikes your interest make a move to break the ice. Just saying "hi" to someone can lead to bigger and better things. Good luck and have fun, crizlee.
