How to ask a girl out?
I'm a senior in high school and I've been eyeballing this girl for a year now; we have a same class together, but she barely goes to that class and we don't really have a chance to talk. Yesterday, the school held a party for the seniors. So, I figured that this was my final chance to ask her out. My plan was to ask her to sign my year book and while I sign hers, I were to ask her out, but she left the party before I had the chance. Now, there's two days of school left, which are tomorrow and Monday, but I can't go to school tomorrow because of a college orientation and I don't even know if she'll come to school those days. My other option is to ask her out on our graduation, which is on June 27th, but I'm not certain if I'll be able to have the chance to talk to her. So, I'm contemplating on what to do. Any ideas?
Update: As I figured, she didn't come to class today. I guess I'll have to ask her out on graduation.

stop worrying about girls and worry about stocks. get rich first
@magicalimage: Ask her. That's the easiest way.
@mysticalmage: Haha, if only she had a social media account.
@2005chuy awesome thanks for giving me hope.
@fradddd: nah mate i say im more unsuccessful than that
@fradddd: Sure. The friendzone isn't real anyway, so as long as you stay close friends throughout that time you'll be fine. That is, if she finds you attractive. Do a few extra things when you decide to ask her out, like playful shoving or teasing. You're going into college, that'll still work.
@redeyed I'd say I'm more unsuccessful than that.
@fradddd: extremely unsuccessful
@redeyed how unsuccessful are you
Slide in the DMs.
You rarely talk to her, yet somehow you think it's possible she might go out with you? Unless you're handsome AF, I don't see how this is going to work out.
@fradddd: well if you think your the least successful come meet me then
"You barely even knew her, yet you have the plans to ask her out? What can I get from getting in to a relationship with you? Exactly! Nothing..."
@eternalmemory If you view relationships as a means to get something out of it, you are doing it wrong. People are not commodities. Quit objectifying people based on their external worth and start viewing relationships as a way to get to know the other person on a deeper level. I've asked out a girl I knew in college whome I barely knew and it worked out fine. She accepted to go on a date.
Tbh you are better off staying single until you start seeing people for who they are rather than what credentials they have as if you are job interviewing for the perfect boyfriend candidate.
well i think we all know why eternalmemory is single, and its not for any of the reasons she stated LOL
@2005chuy: what if I follow your advice for 1.5 years? Could I still ask her out.
Also, I remember when people when say "you don't need to have a girlfriend in middle school, just wait til high school cause there are so many babes". But nope, now people say wait til freaking college. Next it'll be wait til you're retired.
@2005chuy: Best advice on this thread
@xreniya: lol, no chance of a yes or no answer?
@eternalmemory: Yeah, I may not know much about relationships, nor do I know much about her, but this may be the last time I see her. It's worth taking the risk then not bother trying. If she says no, I'll just move on, if she says yes, that's great.
@upcomingnerd
3 paragraph date credentials incoming
@2005chuy: Idk man, I'm not 'attractive' but I have never had a problem getting a date. Just showing a little confidence and humor will get you a lot further than you think.
@eternalmemory Have you even been on a date?
Unless you're a pretty attractive dude, asking out a girl you barely know won't get you anywhere. Try to figure out what you have in common and talk about that for a while. Don't think of her as 'the chick you're tryna smash', act like you want to be her friend. After a few days, your chance of her saying yes will skyrocket.
inb4 she not going to prom.
@magicalimage: I'd do it Monday. Too many people will be around her during graduation.
@natalie: I see her around the school, even when she doesn't come to that class, and she's in the yearbook club. As for contacting her through social media, I can't. She doesn't have any social media. So my last bet is asking her on Monday or graduation.
If you already know you like her beyond her looks, then call her and ask her out. Or just do it abruptly, the next time you see her by herself.
But also don't listen to me, since I'm the least successful person with girls ever.
Just walk up to her and ask her
just ask her out
inb4 she doesn't graduate cause she never goes to school
like the others said you'll have a lot of chances to meet girls in college. even though you've been eyeballing her for a year she's probably not very responsible. if you must, head over to facebook and try to meet up somewhere idk
^ I somewhat agree with the above comments. Also, factoring in that you only have two days of school left, there is very little hope that you guys will be seeing each other around anymore, as there may not even be a chance that she will be attending graduation (some of my friends didn't bother to show up due to laziness).
Though, I can only say that if you do happen to meet on the day of graduation, go up to her and ask her if you can take a picture with her (it's normal to ask even people whom you wouldn't necessarily talk to often), then seize the opportunity to ask her out. It's either a hit or a miss.
Good luck to you though, and congratulations on almost graduating! Remember, there's still college for you to meet someone who you may take a liking to.
be like me just think and then forget about her and graduate then move on
My advice, stay single. College is amazing. You will meet a variety of beautiful woman with whom you can take your time to ask out.
