Ask a Boy out when You Know He Likes You

Boys can be too scared to ask us girls out, so sometimes we have to do the dirty work. When you know a guy likes you but he doesn't think you like him and you want to ask him out, follow these steps.

Steps

  1. Flirt with him first. Be playful and lovable.
  2. Walk up to him. Don't be afraid. Show him your courage.
  3. Start off a light conversation. You can start by saying hi and then complimenting him. For example, say things like 'That shirt looks good on you' or 'Your smile is adorable'. Guys want a girl who makes them feel good. But don't be too gracious with your compliments or you'll seem like a love-struck fool.
  4. Flirt a bit more. Twirl your hair with your fingers. Smile at him.
  5. Bring up dating casually. You can say 'So I heard so and so are dating. I'm still single, though. How about you?
  6. If he tells you he's single too continue on. If he says he's with a girl, slowly drop the conversation and leave.
  7. Since both of you are single, ask him if he wants to get together sometime, like Friday for example to see that new scary movie.
  8. If he agrees, pat yourself on the back! Girl you got him! Tell him 'Great!' And drop your final flirty line by exchanging numbers. Tell him, 'Well I gotta go but here's my number. Text me later!'
  9. Wink and then leave.

Tips

  • Smile at him.
  • Act like yourself, people want to see the real you, so don't be afraid to act how you would, in private. Better to be the real you, and get another guy, then to lie, and go out with him.
  • Be nice to him. Treat him like a bud. He is a human being (hopefully).
  • Have fun with him.
  • Don't come off too strong with him or you might scare him away.
  • Don't cake on makeup and fake tan lotion just for him. Let some natural beauty shine. Just use some gentle foundation, mascara, eyeliner, and maybe sparkly eyeshadow.
  • Be flirty and playful.
  • Don't rush into the question.
  • Don't go overboard with the compliments.
  • Don't be scared. Courage makes a boy like you more. After all who doesn't want to be with a strong person?
  • If he lets you down don't show your disappointment. Just say maybe another time.
  • Don't be clingy.
  • Try breaking the ice with a nice joke like 'Why did the gum cross the road? Because it was stuck to the chicken's foot!'
  • Be confident, true to yourself, and be yourself!

Warnings

  • Don't get tongue tied. Just pretend he's one of your friends, and talk casually with him.
  • Don't embarrass him in front of his friends.
