ok so...theres this girl I want to ask to my senior prom. I think she likes me, she flirts with me at school a lot. I just don't know how I should ask her. The problem is I have seen her with this other guy a lot lately. I don't know if they are going to prom together, dating or what. I asked her if she was dating this guy a week or 2 ago and she said no. I got the impression she didn't like him and that I wouldn't be seeing them together as much anymore. I should have asked her back then but I wasn't really thinking about a prom date yet. Now I have a bad feeling she is going to end up dating this guy and/or going to prom with him and i missed my chance.
Should I ask if she is going to prom with this other guy (or someone else, which i don't think she is as of yet)? then if she isn't going with anybody ask her myself? also, when is a good time to ask? any time I can talk to her in private?
