Expert: Matt Date: 6/18/2007 Subject: Long story on asking out a friend
Question Hello, and I would like to thank you before reading since this gets difficult. I am 15 and wanted to ask out a girl I ave known for years.
Background
We did not interact that much until last summer, we go to the same camp. We started talking a lot and i became fond of her. Our camp hosts to dances over the two months that we are there. Both times I really did not have the courage to ask her because I was still kind of getting to know how she really was. T the end of the summer I asked her out but she said her friend liked me and it would be like betraying her friend. I was aware that she liked me but did not pay much attention to it. During the school year we would talk to each other over messages and a few times in person. i am now going to spend the summer with her and we are comfortable near each other. Its just that she's the kind of person who likes to feel "free". That is why she usually doesnt have a boy friend.
question
How should i ask her out because its difficult sometimes getting her alone since we are at camp training for the job next year? I dont know if i should ask her out more casually or more sentimentally. I was thinking of sking her out for the first dance but thats 4 weeks into camp and would be wasting time with her. Please help, thanks in advance.
Answer Hello Miguel.. First off: I just wanted to say that I am swamped with questions today for some reason; therefore I'm going to make this answer to this question To-The-Point.. Secondly: Please forgive me if I sound impatient, rude, or careless. I'm just soo tired due to lack of sleep, and now I'm annoyed with parental-problems.
I think you may want to find out about this girl some more, and if she's seeing anyone else.. However, that's how you should approach her.. You can get a flower or two of her favorite type or color; and walk up to her one day and state that you're still interested in her, and you're wondering if she's currently seeing anyone right now.. If she's not; say that you are wandering if she'll go out with you.
It's that simple. Since you've asked her out before; don't be afraid of rejection, or uncertainty *such as, "I don't know", ect. * You'll be fine, and if you're nervous; just keep in mind that she's not going to bite your head off after you do this. As far as "HOW" you should ask her,, wait a few days until you talk to her a little, then ask her casually&sincerely.
Good Luck and I hope this helps. Sorry about this rush answer, but I am very busy right now. Please forgive me. Please feel free to ask me as many Follow-Up Questions as often as you like, and anything else in the future.. --Matt--
