I am taking this girl to prom i i have known for about 5 years. We sometimes fight but not anymore than normal. We are going to prom together. We hooked up one time and then we quit talking and that was it. Now since she didnt have a prom date and all my friends told me to go with her i thought it would be fun for my last prom. Now i am nervous. We are haning out today to go get a tie that matchs her dress. What can i ask her to do today to make me less nervous. And what can i say to her that maybe she will understand thanks.

tough question!\n\nokay, let's get creative, any "normal" answer is going to hurt the first guy's feelings...\n\nthe way that seems like it would have the best results is to be totally honest with both guys and your parents, and try to keep EVERYONE happy.\n\nokay, been there, done that with having the parents who wouldn't let me date.  and only go to the prom in a group.\n\njust by the way you asked the question shows a lot of integrity, your parents should be happy, and the boy you like and the boy who would be "just a friend" should all think you're pretty cool...\n\nbefore i thought of suggesting what i'll write in the next paragraph i read your other posts to see if there's anything in there which would get you in trouble with your parents... if i was your parents, i would be proud of your level of self-control and willingness to say "no" and stick up for yourself...\n\nmy wacky solution... just print out this thread and show it to your parents and both boys... tell the 2nd boy that his prom is as "just friends", the first boy should be reassured that you care as much as you do for his feelings.  or... if you're old enough to invite the first boy to your prom, make a deal with your parents that you'll be home early, and go with him.  or if his (#1's) prom is after yours, go with him to his and be back early, and keep your existing arrangements.\n\nmom and dad... it's kind of a privacy thing, she probably wouldn't want you to read her other posts, but you have a good daughter, she obviously cares what you think, and she's trustworthy, and knows how to stay out of trouble : )\n\nor just don't go to the prom.  : (

What does she like? I once had a guy take me to dinner in a museum..it was amazing, I will never forget that night. Choose her favorite place or even a favorite moment that you could recreate... My sister missed her senior prom due to an illness...her husband recreated that moment for her on their 5th wedding anniversary..it was cheesey and silly and very romantic..use your imagination and she will love you for it.

Send her anonymous roses and letters. Let her know you know things about her but dont let her know who you are.\nTell you, you looked really beautiful in the red dress you were wearing yesterday.\nIt will have her wondering.\nWell, as long as you are not playing games its ok, otherwise abstain, it sometimes gets on my nerves when i have secret admirers

Sorry about your prom, dear, but there will never be a time when our young men aren't serving their country in another part of the globe. That's what we DO. It's our job. it isn't always pretty, but it's always the truth. We are useless at home. We have no purpose at home. Our job is simply to defend and uphold the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. But I really do hate that your guy might miss your prom. I missed my girl's prom back before you were born, and I've always hated letting her down. It will bother him as much as it does you, and probably for a lot longer. But remember he's doing what he has too, not what he wants too. I'm sure if he had a choice, he'd be dancing with his girl, not laying on a cot staring at your picture.

If you are the asker, you should pay for the tickets. However, if you are going as freinds then you do have the option of asking about going dutch (split it).\n\nIt sounds to me like you really do not like the guy too much (reason why he's an ex) and you are trying to come up with reasons to "cheap out" on your responsibities. If this is the case do not ask him, go with someone else.\n\n* * *  I just looked at your previous question and now understand why you are asking this question. Since you are asking a rotten two faced lying cheater, deffinately do not take that guy.  Use your head and not your heart. It sounds tough but I doubt you would like to remember your last prom with the guy who cheated on you (breaking your heart and probably trust in guys). Always remember, if they cheat once they always will (it's a charater issue).\n\nDo yourself allot of good and stay as far away from this creap as possible. Think of him as poison. I just feel horrible for your next boyfriend after your experiance with this guy.

No matter what ask him in person. Its the hardest thing to do but it means the most. If its weird then just like tell him you wanted to know if he wanted to go to prom with you so that you two could get to know each other better. So basically just ask him in person.

go on aa date with her so you are alone and not distracted. is she goes on the date with you she must be into you so no worries because she obiously has feelings for you too. just throw it into the conversation like normal. then you shouldnt feel scared. good luck!

It sounds as if she was embarrassed that you involved the teacher in this scheme. She might like you, but it sounds as if she thinks you are a "lose cannon" who will embarrass her in front of others. That's the real reason I suspect that she ran out of the room the next day. I think you need to be authentic (and stop the big surprises) and have a conversation with her. Be real, and apologize if you sense she didn't like your "stealth flower surprise". Maybe, if she gets to know the real you, without the "surprises", you'll have a chance with her.

my suggestion, DONT PLAN AHEAD!!! if you plan ahead it just puts pressure. on you just go and do what you normally do and if you bump into her just say something that you would say to any other girl. like hey thats a neat shirt. or if she is into sports compliment something shes done well in sports. or whatever shes good at compliment her on it!!!!!!

You need to wear a tux and it should match your date's dress.  Then, order her a corsage that also match's her dress.  You need to either get a limo for the night or make sure that you have a ride.  Also, you'll need money for pictures if you want to take them at the dance.  Don't forget to plan something fun to do on the day after prom(post prom).  That can be the best part of the whole event. Good luck, have fun and don't worry you have it easy it's harder on your date to pick out her dress, shoes, and all.

Bring her a rose and tell her you screwed up on the first date and would like her to give you a second chance because you like her and regret having not made more of a chance.\nIf you need any more help I would love to contribute post another question i will be on the look out.\nLots of Luck\n<3 Me

Sounds like a great idea!! It would definitely be hard to turn you down.  Just a suggestion though... is it possible to do reconnaissance before you pop the prom question?  Can you find out if she has a date already?  It would be such a bummer if she has a date already.  Still, even if she does and you're interested in this girl, go for it even if you know that you'll be turned down. Think of it as an investment!

Just start making friendly conversation with her, then bring up the prom.  Ask her if she's going with anyone and if not, ask her then.  Don't do anything too exciting, because most people honestly won't find it that 'awesome'.

Oh god I know what your talking about. Just be yourself like you would around your friends...or try to be anyway. You're nerves will settle down by the end of the date.

Have a real conversation, be honest with your feelings and direct...  If she tries to get together afterwards to "just talk" don't go for it, it's just going to be more painful on both of you.
