I don't want to do anything that is going to cost me money, just I don't want to ask like everyone else does. Any ideas? Thanks.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Creative ways of asking a girl to prom
- Thread starter The Great One

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Ha Ha dude you should at least spend money on flowers when you actually ask her. I mean theres a bunch of cool creative things you could do but you should be willin to spend a bit since youll probly have to anyways,its prom right. I know this one guy asked this chick by leavin clues for her where she had to do a bunch of random things like go to a boys bathroom at the bla bla bla and get the next clue all leadin back to her house where he was waiting with some flowers. Thats just an idea though be creative the best ideas are the ones you think up. if not go with the flowers ------>:flowers:

You dont have to do anything expensive. The reason girls like flowers and stuff when they're asked is because it creates drama. It gives them something to talk about, and if its public it gives them the spotlight. Do something a bit flashy, especially if your sure she'll say yes (like a gf or if she's hinted that she wants you to ask her).
If your looking for ideas, a bunch of guys at my school asked the girl on the morning announcements. The clue idea is great as well. If you know an office aid, you could try writing a note like an office referal that asked her out and have them deliver it (note: I think this is against the rules, so check first and be sure the guy is trustworthy). Use your best judgement and make it big.

Walk up to HB
You: So, what time should I pick you up for prom?
HB: I'm going to prom with you?
You: Yep
HB: ok! bla bla bla
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I'm against buying them things. It's just silly, and doesn't make you seem very suave, if you have to bribe them.
The person I asked was an underclassman.
Me: Man, I can't wait till prom.
Her: Yea, I wish I could go.
Me: I know, right? If only there was so miraculous, imaginary way for you to find a date that is in the graduating class. *wink*
Her: *laughs* So, I'm just a charity case?
Me: Exactly. And thank your lucky stars.
I think it's more important to say something creative than to actually buy them gifts/set up an event. I like Krak's idea.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

Why spend money on ASKING a girl to prom? That's just stupid, and a waste. Just bring up prom in a convo, find out if she has a date, if she doesn't then ask her to go with you. This is how I got my date:
Me: ... So, who are you going to prom with?
Her: I actually don't have a date yet.
Me: Really? Me neither! Let's go together!
Her: Okay, that sounds awesome.
Simple as that my friend.

i never used it but i wrote it and its not too bad.. steal my words, just play g and c for the chords. i pretty much freestyled the whole thing, just playing and making up words as i went.
