ideas for asking a girl to homecoming

[V-DubLove]

i need a kickass idea to ask a girl to my school's homecoming dance. i've heard of a couple good ideas, but i'm curious if anyone can think of something really cool. i want to do something that she will definitely remember a few years down the road

[birdgirl73]

She's already your established girl?

[V-DubLove]

yeah i'm 99% positive she will be saying yes. homecoming is really early for us this year, it's this coming weekend.

"michael vick wants to go to homecoming with you, but i'd rather take you instead, sound good?"

something humourous, but not over the top

[birdgirl73]

OK, tip #1: Ask her on Monday or Tuesday, early enough that she can plan. Not sure how big a deal it is in your school, but that gives her long enough to do girly things like hair, nails, buying something cute to wear.

Do y'all do mums? I think it'd be fun to drop a couple of little hints. Like maybe give her one of those potted chrysanthemum plants they have in all the plant and grocery stores at this time of year. Tie it with a ribbon, maybe. She'll think, "What's up with this?"

You could do something like a scavenger hunt and lead her toward little clues having to do wtih homecoming, football, and/or parades. At the end of the hunt, you could have a card saying "IOU the best homecoming mum there is if you'll come with me. Please say yes?" Actually you can think of something much better to do and say than I can, I'm sure.

Last time I was asked to homecoming, it went like this:
Him (this guy's now my husband) "So, you wanna go to homecoming?"
Me: "Yep."
Him: "OK. I'll pick you up at 12:30."

Not exactly life-changing. But I still remember it more than 20 years later.

CUTE!! This is SOOOOOOO much better than my corn-fed idea. Definitely incorporate this into your plan!!

You could spell out, "WILL YOU GO TO HOMECOMING WITH ME" in rose petals and those cool sparklers

Haha nice. I've gotta stash that under "things to do when you've pissed signifigent other off". but with diffrent words them "will you go to homecoming with me"

[rebgirl420]

Haha I seen it on t.v. actually. I never went to homecoming and prom and all that.

Man, try to ask her ASAP to avoid other fighter pilots, who'll do their best to try and shoot you down in flames. Like birdgirl73 said, the earlier the better. She can prepare for the moment, and the anticipation level will be maxed out on the night of the Homecoming dance.

I'd buy one red rose, tie a pink ribbon around it, and then try and catch her close to or near being alone. Hand her the rose, tell her something like "This rose represents my hope and desire to have the honor of taking you to the Homecoming Dance/Game/Whatever. Would you give me that honor?"

I know that it sounds corny as hades to some, but I have found that chivalry, respect, and sincerity works very well when asking a lady out. Speak distinctly, with your eyes meeting hers, with the most sincerest look you can give her. Practice if you have to, in front of a mirror.

If she is the one you want, and she turns you down, or says she'll think about it, give her a day or so, then ask her again, this time giving her maybe a stuffed animal - "Ty" beanie babies are cool, and cost very little. Get her something like a tiger, lion - or something cute like a duck, or maybe a bear or panda. Even better, find out from someone, a friend or someone who knows her, what month her birthday is in, and get her a birthday bear of that month. Write a little note, and if she turned you down - something like "I am still hope and desire that you will change your mind and decide to go with me to the H/C dance." If she said she'll think about it, try the line "I hope and pray you'll decide to go to the dance with me. My dream is to be dancing with YOU that night." Pin the note to the animal with a pin or something. Then try again to catch her alone, and give it to her, let her read it, and see what happens.

I wish you luck, my young friend. Always remember to treat her with respect, and speak distinctly, and with a confident air about you. The gals like a confident fellow.

I bet'cha you'll get her to go, and you'll both have a great time.

But ALWAYS have a backup plan, or someone to ask if she turns you down - that'll possibly get her jealousy juices flowing, and you may end up with her after all is said and done.

Again, good luck, and Peace, my friend!

See I hate corny stuff. If it was me id want something cool. Like take me to the museum or the bowling alley and show me a great night and then ask me afterwards.

Or you could buy her jewelry. Im a girl who loves diamonds haha. It's how John got me.

[Old Stoner]

Yea, but rebgirl, what if they've never gone out? He didn't specify if they had or had not, and if they hadn't, how would he approach her?

Me, I'm the romantic type. Which I consider my suggestions as - romantic. I don't look on my suggestions as corny - but romantic.

The wife and I have been married 11 years (got a GOOD ONE the second time around) and I STILL surprise her with all kinds of stuff - jewelry (she's not a big fan of jewels, though), stuffed animals, cards, little notes in her car when she leaves for work, sticky notes on the fridge, and her BIGGEST surprise, the Corvette convertible I got her on our 10th wedding anniversary. I still haven't figured out how to top THAT one yet!

I guess V-Dub could just go up to her and slap her on the arse and say, hey, b----, your going to the Prom with me, but i do think that's slightly crass, LOL...

There are too many variables, and not enough answers, to really give V a good answer. They dating? Does she even KNOW him? How old are they? What grades are they in, etc. You get my drift.

I was just always taught to treat a woman with respect, and put 'em on a pedestal. In my opinion, women are the most wonderful gift God gave us (weed and cars running close seconds - J/K ). Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, and I'm definitely OLD, at 50.

Being romantic hardly ever failed me, though.

But then you gotta wonder about a gal who has a line from Apocalypse Now always in her post. But hey, I guess you like to surf, LOL.... Just kidding....

I'll get off my soapbox now, he, he, he....

Peace,

old Stoner

[HighTillIDie]

... i am too upfront... i would tell her she was going with me, and it would be so

hahahaha good point hun. And yes, Apocalypse Now is my favorite movie haha.

[ghosty]

Do what I did, find the busiest hall of your school, during the busiest passing time see her passing, so everyone's around spot her coming and just yell out the question... "HEY (your girl's name), I LOVE YOU, LET'S GO TO HOMECOMING OKAY?!" She thought it was really cute and everyone laughed, so I think it was a good one. Bonus points if she's by all her freinds, so she can brag about how sweet yet goofy you are

[rebgirl420]

haha yes and when she screams back "No fucking way" youll look like the biggest goober the world has ever seen haha

[snicklefritz1825]

Guys do need to learn how to be romantic, there are not enough in this world. Being creative will win the girls heart. So go with one of Old Stoner's ideas.

[ghosty]

haha yes and when she screams back "No fucking way" youll look like the biggest goober the world has ever seen haha

Well I was sure she'd say yes, I had been dating her for like 2 years, that's why I just did it that way.. If you're not sure she'll say yes... DONT do it that way

[meatw4d]

I never went to homecoming and prom and all that.
I hear that...

:stoned:

i skipped prom for a concert

[meatw4d]

Hand her the rose, tell her something like "This rose represents my hope and desire to have the honor of taking you to the Homecoming Dance/Game/Whatever. Would you give me that honor?"
I know plenty of girls that would think "this guy is weirder than i thought..." and turn you down. Sometimes you gotta be cool about it and not say something that King Arthur would.

[Old Stoner]

Yea, meat, be a man of the New Millenium. Just slap the sheet out of her, tell her "you comin' wif me, beetch, grab her by the hair, and drag her off. Works ALL the time....

Geez..... King Arthur...

Bet you have plenty of luck wif da hoes....

Peace,

Old Stoner

[couch-potato]

If she says no, head butt her in the ovaries.

[Spoken Word]

Just ask her. And try not to sound nervous.

I miss high school.:( Just get good grades and explore "girls" lol that was it.

[stinkyattic]

Yo roll up in your V-Dub and be all, "Hey babe you wanna roll in my 1982 Diesel Rabbit with the veggie oil conversion? Yeeeeah that's what I thought! Hop in girly!!!"
Now THAT'S stylee.
:D
Seriously what chica can resist a fly guy in a VW?
Take it from a girl who is on her second 'Dub, and dates a dude who drives one- he looks FINE all up in that tinted-out Jetta!
Mm mm mm.

You are overthinking this! Relax! It's all good! She'll go with you! Have fun!

[meatw4d]

Yea, meat, be a man of the New Millenium. Just slap the sheet out of her, tell her "you comin' wif me, beetch, grab her by the hair, and drag her off. Works ALL the time....

I dunno if you knew this, but there is a good medium between King Arthur and whatever the hell you described.

But what do I know... Go try that "Would thou likest to goeth forth with me to thyne homecoming dance?" shit...

I'm sure she won't think you're a loser.

[Kid Dynamite]

hah there's some cracking banter going down in this thread.

[Old Stoner]

Gee, meat, no need to gettith thy panties all wadded in a knotteth.

My post was meant in jest... Or i wouldn't have even offered a "Peace" at ya...

However, I dunno if YOU know this but you can get more sugar than you can with shit.

Besides, it would have been "Would'EST thou likest to go forth with me to Grand Ball."

:stoned: Peace,

Old Stoner

[meatw4d]

ok ok point taken
