Well, basically there is this girl I was going to ask to homecoming for my senior year. I talked to someone who is kind of friends with her and apparently she wants to go with this other kid, but he hasn't asked her yet. I've talked to this girl for quite awhile, I thought she was into me, but maybe not...

I already had a plan to ask her but I'm thinking I should just forget it. It just sucks because I was ready to ask her and I found this out today.

Thoughts?

If she really has someone else she really wants to go with, don't bother. There is a good chance you will get stood up when she ends up going with him.

Don't listen to him!

If you don't know the other kid (as in your not mates with him) then get in there.

If you do know the other kid (and your mates with him) then... get in there anyway.

All's fair in love and war... and video games.

Fail advice.. Ask her.. the reason why is this.. she may not be aware of you as a possibility so she's thinking of somebody else. Now if it turns out she's not interested.. there is nothing wrong with that either. But you definitely won't gain something by doing nothing. Defeatism.. is for losers. If you're going to lose do it through action.. not inaction.

If you ask, she gets an opportunity to say no. Don't ask. TELL. Tell her that she's going to homecoming with you. That way, she doesn't have the chance to decline.

Ask her, if she says no you can stop wondering and find someone else to ask. Or wait and end up not going at all or alone. Your option. :P

Ask her. Worst that can happen is she says no but now she knows your interested and maybe that will work for you down the line.

That's true but even if she says yes, he still knows he isn't her first choice. That doesn't make for a fun experience, IMO. If he asks someone else, he still might not be their first choice but at least he doesn't know that. He specifically mentioned she has someone specifically she wants to go with.

I know. I'm actually fairly confident she'd say yes, but the thing is I'd be thinking about if she actually wants to go with me the whole time.

I considered texting this kind of jokingly before asking her: "If I were to hypothetically ask you to homecoming, would you hypothetically say yes?"

That was when I thought she was definitely into me, but I totally just don't know what to do now.

You're the best judge of your situation. If you think you are friends and that she likes you enough to go to the dance, then ask her. If you don't feel that you've put in the groundwork to make going to one of the more important dances of the year feasible, then maybe start a bit smaller and ask her to go to a movie or have lunch with you or something.

I think that's what I'm going to end up doing. Ask her to hang out Saturday and see what goes from there.

Thanks for the help

I don't think some of you guys understand the situation. I'm not scared of asking her. It's whether I really should or not.

Like I said, I'm asking her tomorrow if she wants to do something Saturday and hopefully things will progress from there. If not, well, there are other girls.

DO IT. If you genuinely want to ask her and you're hurting nobody by doing so then what's stopping you? Rejection? Pffft, that's not so bad.

Well apparently from what I've heard she wants to go with some other guy and her friends are trying to hook them up. Doesn't seem like the best time to ask her.

The only feasible thing to do here is take the other guy out of the picture, whether that be with a broken leg or...shadier methods.

I know you must feel nervous about asking because she might reject you but the guy hasn't asked her yet so you should ask her asap! You've got nothing to lose :D
