I like this one girl. I was going to ask her out about a week from today, but then I start hearing strange rumors that this one senior was trying to go out with her. My brother's gf is good friends with the girl I like, and she was going to hook up this senior and the girl I like. I emailed her asking her to do me a favor and not hook the 2 up. She was very sympathetic, but said that she was the senior's cousin and practically promised she would hook the two up. I know if the senior goes through and asks her out the girl I like will say yes, but I think she would say yes to me too if I asked her out. I'm sorry for this very complicated situation but I hope you can help me.

Okay, look, I know that you need to work up courage to do scary things like asking a girl out, but stalling is always a bad move. The very next time you see her, you need to walk up to her and start talking to her. I'm talking about the VERY next time you see her.
If you've never talked to her before you need to spend some time talking to her, preferably about five minutes. It doesn't matter what you talk to her about, the new album you just bought, the time you skinned you knees when you were learning to ride a bike, whatever. If she's still there listening to you after five minutes, you're practically guaranteed that she'll accept an invitation for a date or give you her phone number.
Example starter for the conversation "Hi, my name is ________, Have you ever wondered what the deal is with _________. Yeah, I think that's crazy. It reminds me of the time I __________." Make it personal. If you think you're going to choke, sit down tonight and write down a script to say for those first five minutes. Don't memorize the script line by line, just make sure you kind of have some good ideas about what you should talk about. If you try to memorize the script you're going to get nervous and freak out.
If you know this girl kind of well and have had conversations with her before, you can just walk up and remind her how you know each other and then ask her out.
If you want to know how to prove to her how much more you like her than this other guy, my advice is that you can't and shouldn't. She probably doesn't want to go out on a pity date with anyone. Don't ever mention the other guy you are worried about.
Good luck.

I'm in a similar situation with the girl I like, but luckily the other guy isn't gonna ask her out anytime soon, so I'm good. I can really feel for you. I think you should ask her out now because you kinda got a deadline to be with her. If the senior gets their first you could be screwed for the rest of the year if they stay together. So I know it is hard, but go for it.

Dude! Women love confidence, So if you don't have any in yourself then you better act like you do. Don't come off as arrogant but still show no fear. Be cool but TELL HER! You don't want to live your life wondering," what if "? Don't go overboard either because let's say you do go out with her and she's turns out to be wierd or flakey, meaning she's young and doesn't even know what she wants. She might be out for fun and that's all.
If you're worried about that other guy then you should make plans to be with that girl as often as possible,leaving no time available for the other guy.

Wow. That is very complicated. If you can get another of her friends to ask her who she likes better, that would be good. If she picks you, ask her out before the other guy. If whe says the other guy, wait until they break up. You seem like a nice guy, so good luck!

Somewhere in the middle. It's good to show your emotions as it's healthy, but I don't want a guy who's more emotional than I am.

the best thing for you to do is get to the girl before the senior does and that way at least you asked her first if she says yes then the other boy is uot of luck.

if you think she`ll say yes to you too then ask her out. if you don`t try then you`ll have to live with it. and if you do but get rejected ( but don`t think you will. cause you won`t get rejected, i`m just trying to say the worse that can happen, sorry if it messes you up), at least you`ll get that off your mind. but just try it out, or else you won`t get another chance until they break up. and don`t worry, if you like her and you think that she likes you then everything should turn out fine. hurry up now ! go ! and good luck =]

Ask her first that is the only way. Did your brothers gf put in a good word for you?

YOU should ask her out. I bet she likes you. I think if you are kinda cute and sweet she will go out with you.
