Teenagers and some of the older men had problems on how to ask a girl out especially when they are not fond of socializing with their opposite sexes.
There are other factors to consider like insecurities, peer pressure and pride.
But wait! You guys out there should take this moment as a memorable one and take it as a fun experience.
Most, if not all, had also been to this situation before so why are you punishing yourself on thinking that you're alone with this? Here are some guidelines on how to ask a girl out and to help you make your first base.
The basics count - Knowing the basic information about the girl you like is the first thing that you should do.
You can gather the information from her friends or colleagues.
If you have common friends and belong to a group together, you can have little conversations with her and ask her some personal questions yourself.
Lending a hand - Not all girls would leap in excitement if they are offered a hand.
Others would take it as annoying.
Just make sure that you are doing it in a nice way.
Little things like helping her in her assignment or carrying her groceries would mean a lot.
If she allowed you to help her, have a little conversation with her to break the ice between you two.
If you are already comfortable with each other then that is the right timing to invite her for coffee or tea perhaps.
Have full knowledge on what she enjoys - Having details on what she loves to do and where she wants to go would do a very tremendous help.
You can join an organization where she is a member or enroll in the same summer class with her to have a constant communication with her.
Invite her out to watch a game of hockey if she's fan of the sport or a basketball championship if that's what she loves watching.
All these things are all possibilities to make her go out with you.
Going out with the group - There are people who are not comfortable to be alone together.
If this happens, you can invite some of your friends and her friends too to come with you to watch a movie or go to the beach.
Spend time to talk to her once in a while just like a normal conversation.
If the two of you are now comfortable then you can ask her out for a follow-up date where friends are no longer included and just the two of you.
Plan an event in your house - There could probably no reason why you won't be able to talk to the girl you like when she is in your house and you are the host of the party.
Inviting your common friends can help you be comfortable with each other.
You can offer her drinks or show her around the house for a tour.
You can build a mutual friendship first with this conversation and ask her to go out for another chance to know her better.
Give support during her events - If the girl you like is hosting an event, make sure that you are there to show your support.
Give her words of encouragement or words of praises especially regarding the setting of the hall if she did it or the flower arrangement perhaps.
Your attendance to her event is a way of support and showing her that you really has something for her.
Then, you can tell her you want to know her better and ask her out for a date.
Give her chance to say, NO - Guys mostly are possessive and demanding.
This is one character than can turn a girl off.
Give your girl a chance to say no or make adjustments to your scheduled date and time.
This will make her feel given importance and prioritized.
You can't just say the date and time without asking her if it's alright for her or not.
You are just starting to invite her so don't be demanding! Build trust - This is the hardest thing to build, the trust.
You can't build her trust in you if you are being true to yourself and not pretending to be one.
You should stand for your character and personality because girls do find boys who are uncertain of their own behavior unworthy.
How can you be trusted if you don't know how to trust yourself? Find out what interests you have in common - Doing things together is lot better than trying to make yourself like the things that she likes without you liking it.
If you both love nature, you have many activities to do together.
You can invite your girl out for a nature trekking, white-river rafting, cave exploration or the likes.
It is easier for you to enjoy the things that you both love doing.
Spends weekends with her - With the information you have in hand, you must know now how her weekends are.
Speak with her and ask her if she has plans on the weekend.
If she doesn't have any then you can invite her to go out with you on an activity.
You should specify the activities you have in mind so as to make her aware of the things you planned to do with her.
You could suggest activities or if she wants to do something on the weekend then ask her if you could come with her.
Grab a date on mid-weeks - If you have tried your best to suit in her weekends but have gained nothing then this is another way of asking your girl out.
You can invite her on a mid-week date to cover up for the weekend date.
You might have high chances of making her go out with you.
Don't get affected if she says NO - Sometimes, girls make fun of their suitors.
They always say no even if their hearts would love to say yes.
This is just their way of testing the truthfulness of the boys' intentions to them and of how far can their patience go.
Don't show your frustrations if you don't get to get her out on a date.
Let her feel the guilt.
Don't overreact on things - If you are happy because you got her to go out with you, don't shout or jump in excitement.
Don't cry of frustration if she turned you down.
Don't beg and plead.
You should control yourself of possible reactions that would make you look desperate.
Take time to enjoy everything in a timely manner.
With all of these guidelines, it is impossible for you to have problems on how to ask a girl out for a date.
Enjoy and have fun!
