dont be brutal :?

You should play a song, that's, you know, not annoying. :P

[spoiler] I kid, I kid. :P I'd personally just go and ask her, but to each his own. [/spoiler]

woaw you must be liek the most popular guy on OT. I can't even get myself to look at a chick, let alone speak to one.

Thats going a bit over the top, but if you feel confident and ready then go for it.

ouch.....

Walk up to her with a smile on your face and ask her casually.

play a song she likes

I'm pretty sure "Hey, so I was wonderin if you wanted to go to the prom with me?" would be much simpler and much more effective.boshlonavish

That's awesome dude I give you props on going out of the norm and thinking about doing something like this. At least she would remember you for long time even if you get denied ;). So do it! Just make sure you practice the hell out of the song.

I would just ask without doing something cheesyCoffee_Blade

I made a whole little scavanger hunt out of it, got a whole bunch of teachers in on it. Itguided her from one place in school to another with notes that started from her home room desk, lead her from room to room in the school and eventually led her to my last period class, and then I just yelled it out as soon as she walked in the room looking all confused. Got a good laugh out of the rest of the class for that one :PApparantly it was "romantic and hilarious".

[QUOTE="butteman12"][QUOTE="Pirate700"]Confused how? You just walk up to her and ask her to the prom. You don't put on a rock concert, and you don't bring her anything. Just walk up to her and ask. That's it. She will then say yes, or no.

He means drinking, partying and going nuts.

From friends' experiences: the guitar thing always works. Do it.

Just ask, my man. That little scenario sounds like it could either go very well, or most likely result in painful embarassment.

This guy I know did the same exact thing and it worked perfectly, but the girl was guaranteed to say yes since they were already friends and they clearly liked each other. Me and some others helped set up her backyard so it looked all nice then brought her there where he was waiting to sing I'm Yours. She was very happy and said yes then they went to prom together and had a grand ol' time. Then I got together with that girl after prom :D Somewhat of a dick move on my part, but whateverBruin4ev3r1520

If you sing Jason Mraz to her, you're just asking her to sleep with a friend.

Sure, just make sure to do a barrel roll while you're at it.

Maybe try a shorter song.

Sea of Love by Cat Power. Its half the length of I'm Yours.

But don't go up to her window and start singing otherwise we will both have to deal with her dad while he's yelling at you. I can think of better ways to spend my Saturday evening than defending you sir!! I have an essay on Psycho to write!!

Don't walk into clas*with the guitar and start rocking out like in some cheesey 80s movie. The 80s are dead!!

How are you going to do this exactly? Are you going to just be chilling out at your lair together and jamming or something?

Put it into a context my friend. People get scared when you share your emotions.

So after the song once you're just nice and relaxed together and still feeling great about the song, ask her quietly while you are sitting down.

I really want to know how it will go!! I am sure you are a thoughtful young man and that she will say yes!

Bless you for bringing back my ol' friends Chivalry and the Courtship!!

Yeah, it's an idea girls would find "sweet", and guys incredibly awkward. You've gotta have a lotta guts to sing to a girl, so props if you follow through.

DONT BE BRUTAL???

DID SOMEBODY SAY BRUTAL???

WELL i need to be brutal.

I think that sounds WAYY too ***** wussy, dude. It will also put her in an awkward situation where she will have to say yes, whether she likes you or HATES YOUR GUTS.

Just ask her. Dont waste your time with a girl you're not sure about, make sure she likes you or your life will be pain, because we are guys and our softpoints are relationships and amazing women that hurt us.

I just asked some girl and she said yes, and now we might start a serious relationship....

If she says no, you set yourself up for major embarrassment.leperphiliac

...Have you ever seen a girl say "Maybe, I'll think about it" to a guy who put in some effort,...XilePrincess

O RLY?!?!?! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Esr_okP5Qmo

But yeah, its just prom, ask her out after a...err...subject*...you both have or if you hang out together.

EDIT: Alternatively, you could get a date like my friend and just start sniffing her and running away when she asks what you're doing.

*I seriously can't say clas.s meaning a subject? That's bull...
