I dunno, i thought a girl liked me and she's just friendly to everyone and now I apparently turned her off. go me.....but I don't think this girl likes you, she's just being nice to you. NT girls are like that.

Okay, there are a couple girls that I know from school that usually say hi to me first if they pass me in the hall. My question is, how do you ask a girl out? The most important hurtle I need addressed is how to go about it without embarrassing the girl. Often if I ask girls if they have boyfriends they get embarrassed, so how do I avoid this?
Maybe get to know them first. It's a big jump from saying hi to asking them on a date!

I don't think this will help you, but here's how I successfully asked a girl to the prom recently:

We were on a school trip and she was sitting a few tables down with one of her friends. After building up my courage (with the help of the people sitting at my table) I simply walked over and stammered out "Would you like to go to the prom with me?" at first she wasn't sure but her friend quickly convinced her to go. And now I have a date for my senior prom, which is also the first time I'm going on anything even resembling a date.

I suppose I might of taken a gamble asking her right in front of one of her friends, but this particular friend never had a problem with me (not that many people do) and has a boyfriend and thereforth, no reason to be jealous.

Last summer, I asked out a girl who got into the habit of talking to me after class, so in retrospect she probably would have said yes to a whole slew of different ways I could have asked... but maybe this might work for you.

She was venting a little about how stressed out she's been with school/home and stuff, so when she was finished I just said "You know what you need? A handsome guy to buy you dinner!" and then smile, so she knows you mean yourself lol. That could be substituted with any date type activity.

I'd say I'm more experienced than some people that actually have had girlfriends, just through the art of empirical observation. Seeing a lot of hastily planned relationships, I cannot help but conclude that some people just don't think them over before rushing into affairs, and the relationships fall apart quickly.

That said, a certain degree of casualness must be maintained that you do not give the impression of desparation. Desparation is NOT attractive. It is NOT attractive. It is NOT attractive. Sorry for repeating but when it comes to these sorts of affairs, I've learned "they can smell your fear." So don't put too much emotional stock on such a volatile investment (to use bad economic puns); that said, don't ask each and every girl you know out lest you look like a skirt-chaser (or to be more derogative, a manslut). Decent acquaintance is the minimum that should be done before you can pull it off successfully.

Also, one should generally avoid using phone/facebook unless you don't run into the person on a daily basis.
