One of my friends, who happens to be a girl, asked me the other day if I had a prom date and if I was interested in getting one. I told her I didn't have one, but I wanted to go with someone nonetheless. Well, anyway, we left it at that for a couple days. Then, I asked her who she was referring to. She responded by telling me it was her best friend. This girl is absolutely amazing, so I was thrilled. Fearing rejection, though, I asked my friend my chances with this girl. She said I should "definitely go for it." Surely my friend and her best friend have talked this over. This girl is probably attracted to me, right?
Anyway, here lies the problem: I really don't know this girl, personally, that is. I know she is really smart, pretty, and extremely sweet, but as for actually knowing her, I don't. So what should my course of action be? What should I say if I want to ask her to the prom and get to know her better - ie a date or two?
Thank you in advance for all your help!

I would meet up with her and your friend together, let your friend break the ice and then just ask her, you are right that they already talked about it, thats just something in female code.

First ask her. The worst case she says no-you get over it and move on. Then ask her a few questions about herself. Music she likes, movies, stuff she does when she's bored, etc. Ask your friend-her friend questions also. Different ones. Then you have stuff to talk about. If she wants to go with you and then you take all your attention and put it on her-she's gonna be impressed. You can talk about yourself too-Please don't talk the whole time about yourself. Make sure she's comfortable, get her drinks, open doors, etc. The second date if there happens to be one then loosen up and let her see more of you. Your personality I mean! You can be more relaxed then cause you'll already have a ton to talk about. Don't worry take a risk-If you don't you might always wonder. If she says No-Her lose not yours. Just remember that. Just remember take it slow and breathe!! You'll be great.

Well, if your friend suggested it ...it probably means that the amazing girl put her up to it. As a female who was always one of the guys and was asked how why and what to do my advice to you is approach her, let her know so n so suggested you accompany each other to prom...see what she says...then suggest a casual date to discuss details...color coordination, flower preferences etc... and use that time to get to know her better. It will also increase your chances of getting a piece prom night because it wont be the first date.

I think you should at least 'talk' to her first. A date or two would probably be best, considering you might not like like her after that. But if you're concerned about time etc, then I'd definately go for it like your friend said. Most likely they did talk about it, and discuss suitable date-able people. (I know I have done before) You must have come up somewhere. How good of a friend is this 'friend of yours. She would know what to do, if you asked her.

You should say that you would be honored to have her as your date for the prom. Ask her when she is by herself. Going out on a date is a excellent way of getting to know someone better.

You should go on a date with her...get something to eat. You will know by the time you're done eating if you like her or not. If you guys mesh....the conversation will flow with little or no akward moments! And, if things do go well than go for it...ask her to the prom!!

Just ask her! If you like ask her out for a movie before hand. You'll feel pretty dumb if you put it off and someone else asks her and she says yes because after all you never asked her.
