[anile8]

there is this girl that asked me to the prom.

she said " mat and daniel want to go with me but i dont want to be mean and say no, will you go with me?"
i said yea for sure, i was gonna ask you but i wasn't sure if you would reject me
her " i wouldnt reject you"

ok so everything is goin good, for the moment. But today at school her friend says to me, r you and jayne goin to the prom and i said yea we are.
then she goes did you ask her or did she ask you
i said, she asked me
then the chick goes, Oh she said that you asked her

what the hell is with that why is she embarrased of asking me, what does this mean?

She was helping you to save face, but you're too dumb to see it.

See, YOU should have asked HER. And then, when she asked you, you whimpered, "I was gonna ask you, but I was WAAAY too much of a chickensh*t. What I am trying to say is, essentially, you have entirely more, better, and bigger balls than me."

Meanwhile, this girl, who turned down the advances of two other guys and had to bear the indignity of having to ask you because your pansy ass was way too terrified of rejection, tried to at least give everyone the impression that you AREN'T a total eunuch by saying that you had the sack to ask her, which you didn't. You respond to this by coming onto an internet message board and simpering about how she's "embarrassed".

I think the bigger question is "Why is her friend asking questions she already knows the answer to?" In other words, she asks if you're going to the prom with Jayne. But Jayne already told her you were. Then she asks who asked who, but she already knew the answer Jayne gave... so why ask you? That's what I'm curious about.

Girls aren't really supposed to ask....

....guys, like you my friend, are supposed to grab their ball sack and ask the girl.

You my friend, just got lucky. Soooo, just say you were both thinking about asking each other and it kinda happened one day. If the guys ask, just say you asked her. If girls ask, just say you asked her. She's not embarassed, in fact you should be because girls sohuldn't do the asking.

Have fun at prom man!

yeah prolly for a couple reasons of why she asked u eventhough she knew already... one thing that comes to mind was that she was testing to see if you'd lie about it to look like a bigger man or something.. and the second one is to see how you would react to saying that SHE asked you to prom. to see if you felt like a wuss or loser for having to have HER ask you out instead.

but if you're like "yeah, i don't blame her though. I mean damn, i'd ask myself to go to prom with me too." then obviously you don't have problems with it.

thanx for the help guys
i didn't think it was too important to say that i asked a girl to the prom the day before and she said no...
i guess my self-esteem was still recovering

EDIT: and for my next dumb question what does "saving face" mean

Save face as defined by UrbanDictionary.com

Save Face - When one realizes their blunder and uses a tactic to try & cover up their mistake. Whether it works or not is to be determined by the situation.
Joe realized what a ****in dork he was when he used that lame pick-up line on Beth and her friends so he tried to save face by saying he had to go to the men's room.

Jill didn't get the joke, but she laughed along to save face & hoped that no one would ask her to explain the punch line.
