Here's one crucial tip: Make it PERFECTLY, CRYSTALLY clear that it's in a more than a friend way. Misunderstandings are the foundations of heart-break.
Maybe, but maybe her mom will poison you with apple pie? Who knows.Jedamethis said:Sweet, she makes you apple pie?hyperhammy said:First you need an awesome plan to win her over for you:
Hire some men to kidnap her parents.
You, the hero, then find the ransom note and bring it to her.
Then you tell her to stay behind, you're going to deal with this.
You try to bring back her parents but one of the kidnapper's mask slides out of your pocket.
Then you tell her your plan but say you only did it because you loved her.
???
Apple pie.
(You make sense of the end.)
But make sure you follow this advise. Make sure your intentions are clear enough that she wont see you as just a friend, but ambiguous enough that you don't push whatever you're doing into a "date". Also once you are doing something with her DO ANYTHING YOU CAN TO TOUCH HER. And I don't mean molest her, but physical contact is key. That's what I've learned anyway and it works for me.Parallel Streaks said:Here's one crucial tip: Make it PERFECTLY, CRYSTALLY clear that it's in a more than a friend way.

That's because people have a preconception that "dates" have to be "formal". If you can convey a relaxed attitude about it and not make the other person feel that they have to perform in certain ways, but just being themselves, it doesn't really matter if it's a date or not.Sephiroth_deus said:Well there is the direct way which seems to be what everyone here is advocating or the indirect way which is to NOT ask her on a date. By that I mean ask her out to do something (pool, the beach, anything) but don't talk about it like it's a date. Dates are formal, there's lots of pressure on you to perform, and there are way to many things that can go wrong.

Ah yes, the friend zone, but even worse is when/if she asks afterwards: 'was this a date?'. What to say to that ha!MoganFreeman said:One piece of advice is to avoid the words 'hang out'. If you are asking her on a date she needs to know exactly what she is getting herself into.
I don't know what age you are, so this might be harder, but i found the easiest way is to be frank. When your alone, or dancing at the festival, just ask her. Say: "I've really liked you for ages. Would you like to go out." or whatever.MASTACHIEFPWN said:Hey escapist forum users,
I have encountered a problem... You see, I really like this girl (I have liked her sense 3rd grade) and I have finnaly built up the nerve to ask her out... But I have one problem... HOW THE HELL DO YOU ASK A GIRL OUT???
I asked her 6 months ago, but she was already dating someone... And I know the way I asked her was total fail. Well, tomorow, their is this festival or something like that happening at our old middle school, she is going to be their, and I plan on going with a couple of my friends (and when we get bored we just walk over to taco bell) and I want to ask her...
Well, if you have ever asked anyone, HOW DO YOU DO IT CORRECTLY???
OH AND to give you something to talk about, how have your attempts at getting dates gone?
