Ask a Girl Out on a Date

Built by Nathalie Lussier on Tuesday, November 8th, 2005

Let’s face it, it might seem like a daunting task to ask the girl you like out on a date. Gathering the courage to walk up to her and ask if she’d like to join you for something. Well have no fear because after reading this how-to guide to asking a girl out, you’ll be a pro. Of course I would recommend you practice asking your mom or sister out for example, to make sure you don’t goof when you ask the girl you really like to go out with you.



The first thing you need to do is figure out what you want to ask the girl out for. Do you want to take her out to the movies, to a restaurant for some of her favorite food (you’ll need to find out what that is before you take her to some spicy food place that will give her indigestion!), to a skating rink, a school dance, a party at a friends’ place, and the list goes on.

Once you know where you want to ask her to go, consider your choice again: will be enjoy watching a live football game with you, while you’re shouting beside her about a referee’s decision? If you think she will be happy to join you for a romantic dinner by candlelight, then great. The reason this is so important is that she might actually want to go out with you, but she might just not be interested in the activity you chose to inviting her to. If she rejects you, you might never have the guts to ask her out again, so don’t make a silly mistake like this one.

Next you need to practice asking her out. This is a very important technique that will really help you to keep your cool when you go up to the girl of your dreams and ask her to join you for a date. Think of what she looks like, how pretty she is, how nice it will be when she says yes to proposition. Whatever you do, don’t think of what might happen if she says no! Just go over how you’re going to ask her out, what you will say, how she will reply and remember to smile. Smiling is something that can be shared between people and it greatly increases the bonds between friends or even strangers. Now that you’ve pictured yourself successfully asking your new girlfriend out, practice out loud. I don’t care if this is embarrassing, if you really want to make sure this girl respects you and says yes to your question, then you need to practice asking her out.

You can ask your mom or sisters to practice with you. She might be able to give you some pointers as to what you should be doing, maybe you shouldn’t fidget with your hands in your pockets and try not to stutter. Once you have some feedback you should go back to practicing a bit more. After you know exactly what you’re going to say and you’ve anticipated what the girl of your dreams will say back to you (make sure she says yes in your fantasies!), then it’s time to prepare a real plan. Find out where she hangs out, when she has free time and when would be the best time for you to ask her out. Now just execute the visual movie you had in your mind, and things will go smoothly.

Remember that she might not actually respond exactly like you had imaged, be prepared for that. Just go with the flow, and be ready to smile widely when she says yes. Now you can ask your new date what she would prefer to do, and if the time of your choice works well for her. That’s it! Once you have practiced enough times, the courage will come naturally and you’ll be asking your girl out in no time. Be sure to treat your new lady friend well, because she didn’t accept to go on a date with you for no reason!

  25. this sucks says:

    Heres my story Im not really shy at all i usualy just walk up and start talking to random girls, but there this 1 girl that my friend knows. I like her alot, my friend told her i liked her and she wants to talk to me more..Heres the problem every time i go up to talk to her i always am loss for words and just dont go up to her. My friend gave her my number now and I dont even wanna pick up my phone cause i know if i talk to her its gonna keep happenin. Im usualy fine but for some reason this the only girl i am having trouble talking too ugh i dont know what to do

  26. sean says:

    Ill start by saying that Im a little wierd ;) I have no problem going up to somebody & telling them off or to step into a situation to protect somebody or to do whatever but i cant seem to get the nerver up to ask this one girl out at my job. Im always afraid that i might offend somebody or it might be considered sexual harassment. She's cute, she's smart, she's funny i cant stop thinking about her.....but i cant seem to get the nerve to ask her out. A bunch of us just went out to this bar/club the other night her & a few of her frinds plus a few others from work...one of her friends out right asked me if i liked her and a couple of the guys at the store said that they thought she liked me i dont know what it is but i cant get the nerver to ask her out what is wrong with me?

  27. corey says:

    guys who want to ask a girl out to homecoming just start a conversation with her and ask if she is going to homecoming with anyone if she says yes say ok just wondering if she says no then ask would you like to go with me. Im already going with someone and im pretty sure on the last romantic dance im going to ask her out out to like a movie or something and work from there anything to do or not to do i need suggestions fast homecoming this saturdat and its now monday thanks.

  28. Pauer says:

    All of u guys have to just go up to the girl you like and say "Hey, me and a couple friends of mine were planning to go to ________ and i was wondering if you would like to tag along" or if you know her slightly say "Alright, I know this may sound king of weird but... I really like you and would love to take you out to a movie sometime soon, so what do you say" Trust me if you can't go up to her and just say that, then you clearly don't like her enough to make her overcome your nervousness. You don't want to end up an old man sitting in a rocking chair regretting all of your decissions. Think of what will happen if she says yes! And if she says no, then it will be the same as if you've never asked her.

  29. conrad says:

    Ok there's this cute girl in a bunch of my classes that I like, and I've sort of been wanting to ask her to the homecoming danc, but I just don't know how to approach her. Just the other day I seemed to have sparked her intrest when I mentioned I might not be going to the dance, but that was about it. I have a feeling that she likes me but I'm not 100% sure. Could someone help me???

  32. allen says:

    There is this girl that i would like to ask out on a date to a Theatre. The only problem is that she has never had a boyfriend before and i believed i am the first person to went on a previous date with her, mainly because she says she is a Bi. What should and what i shouldn't do before, during and after the Theatre?

  34. ben says:

    I like this girl angella but i need to ask her out at school HOW?

  35. Pramit says:

    Ok, a lot of you guys look like you could use some help...lol...I'm a sophmore in college and I've had my share of good and bad luck with girls...good weighing over the bad...if i see a girl i like i never hold back - i make sure she notices me noticing her atleast once, and the very next time i see her, i go right up to her and say "hi, i'm pramit...i don't mean to be rude or interupt but i've been noticing you around campus and i was wondering if we could have lunch or maybe coffee sometime" . 8 outta 10 times i've got them to say yes. never go straight for dinner or a party or anything of that sort. no zoo or city walks either. lunch or coffee... if she is with her friends, there are two ways you can go about this - now how you say this depends on how you judge the girl. have a look at what shes wearing, how is her hair, makeup...does she look like the open type and free type? or the reserved and quiet type? if shez the open type then excuse yourself and say you don't mean to interupt and ask her out in front of her friends. she'll admire your confidence. if she is the quiet type, apologize for butting in, ask her if you could have a quick word with her and then ask her. now in either case, if you get rejected, don't get kicked off, go with the flow, stay confident and brush it aside. have a conversation for a couple more minutes...this will get her interested in you. not many guys take rejection easily, but the fact that you did means you are different. never leave without her name. and never use the word 'date' the very first time you ask her out. infact do not use the word date until it is like the third or maybe fourth time you are taking her out... if you guys need more help e-mail me... good luck guys!

  39. lacking Confidence says:

    here is my situation. i just met this girl about a month ago. as luck would have it, we have been assigned to carpool together (just us) once a week. she is the shy type, and doesn't date ussually. i really would like to ask her out on a date, but do not want to risk hurting our developing friendship. i do not know if i should wait and let the friendship develop, or just give her a shot now. also, i have never realy dated before (28) mostly because i hate to ruin relationships. i need good advice please!

    Brent, bro if ur gonna ask her make ur move do it before sum1 else does and you will regret it. And if she is checking you out(i mean everytime u look at her shes looking at u);what u should do is aproach her when she is free,and just start it up with a simple hello and how u doin?, and after chatting 4 awhile u get stra8 to why u aproached her in the first place (dont b shy because women like confidence) and TADA you have added a girl to ur party!
