now let's take a look at 10 tips for
asking out your prom date talk to their
friends
remember that Spice Girls song that told
guys they had to get with their friends
if they wanted to be their lovers well
if you are in high school right now
probably not but there is still
something you can learn from the 90s
song if you want to know about your
potential prom date you should talk to
their friends this is especially true if
you want to figure out if they've
already been asked your crushes friends
are a great resource when it comes to
asking them to prom there's a pretty
good chance they will know whether or
not your crush likes you and they will
even know certain insights like their
favorite color that will make it easier
for you to ask them to prom leave their
parents out of it thanks to the trend of
promposals you might have to ask
permission for certain over-the-top
antics that being said you should do
anything that you'd have to get her
parents permission when it comes to
their love lives teens would rather
their parents stay out of it
Plus why would you want to take the
chance of them saying no you should also
try not to ask them in front of their
parents think of how you would feel if
your parents were around it's probably a
little embarrassing right so why would
you do that to your potential prom date
your parents will be doting on both of
you on prom night so save the promposal
for you and that special someone when to
do it okay so there is a big factor you
have to think about before asking your
crush to prom and that's when to
actually do it
first you have to make sure they don't
have a date already which means you
should be the first to ask them the
later you weight the slimmer your
chances will be it's a good rule of
thumb to ask your crush about a month
before your actual
why so soon well as we said you want to
be the first but that's not the only
reason there is a lot of planning that
goes into prom night
that means you'll want to leave your
date enough time to find something to
wear and you will need enough time to
actually plan the date be romantic if
you are asking someone to prom that you
have romantic feelings for then you
better show it there is a theme of grand
gestures when it comes to asking girls
to prom and there's a good reason they
work we all know that most girls love
romantic movies and what do all these
movies have in common it's the fact that
someone in the main relationship will
pull a grand gesture to prove their love
for the other you can do something as
simple as writing a poem there's
something more elaborate using stuffed
animals but no matter what you do if you
are romantic and heartfelt there's a
good chance you'll score yourself a prom
date with your crush get creative it
should go without saying that you'll
need to get creative with your proposal
the more creative and unique it is the
better your chances will be that she'll
say yes it's always a good idea to keep
it light and have a sense of humor are
you great with funny puns fantastic try
to find a way to incorporate that
creativity into an awesome promposal
girls love feeling special so taking the
time to do something that hasn't been
done before will score major points flex
if you can make her laugh she'll melt in
your hands
quicker than chocolate don't put them on
the spot unless the person you are
asking to frog is your significant other
don't do a public promposal there is
nothing more embarrassing than having to
say no to someone in front of other
people oh wait there is being rejected
in front of other people is what
nightmares are made of not to mention
the fact that you might actually
pressure them to say yes because the
crowd is encouraging them wouldn't you
rather take a date to prom who sincerely
wants to go with you if so do something
sweet and personal and leave the public
promposals to the Instagram official
sweethearts find and SPO online okay we
all know it's tough to be creative
especially in a high-stakes situation
like a promposal but don't fret because
you have one of the greatest tools on
the planet in your arsenal the internet
if you are stuck in a promposal rut the
new sites like Pinterest or BuzzFeed to
see what current trends are you'll be
to see what others have done to get
their prom date and hopefully that will
inspire some creativity on your end this
is also a great way to see what has
already been done so you can steer clear
of being unoriginal don't do it over
text if there is one tip you should take
away from this video it's this one don't
ask your crush to prom over text message
yes we live in an age where technology
makes it easier to ask the hard
questions like asking someone to prom
but that doesn't mean you should there
is nothing more lazy less creative and
unromantic than asking your crush to
prom over text if this lackluster
promposal is any indication of the
effort you'll put into planning the date
then expect a swift rejection and ladies
if a guy asks you to prom via text
message just say no you deserve better
just relax since we've taken text
message promposals out of the equation
that means you'll have to ask your crush
to prom and person this is a pretty
stressful task to say the least chances
are you'll have a lot of anxiety as you
anticipate their answer but at the end
of the day just relax
the worst thing that will happen is that
they will say no which isn't even a big
deal in the grand scheme of things
though you'll want to go with someone
you like or will have fun with in 20
years it won't really matter who you
pick the problem so take the pressure
off yourself and don't take it too
seriously have a back-up plan that being
said you should always have a back-up
plan for your promposal what if they say
no what will you do well depending on
your promposal you could come up with a
creative way to react to their rejection
you should always make your crush feel
okay about their decision don't blast
them on social media or try to be mean
if they don't want to go with you that's
their loss you can always go with a
friend which would probably be more fun
anyway either way make a back-up plan
that way you can still enjoy your prom
night regardless of who you take do you
