<p>I’m doing something special second semester of my senior year and I’m away from my High School. I won’t be returning until about two weeks from the dance so I don’t really have a way to ask her in person… I have a girl in mind already. I could call her and ask her but that seems like a lame way to do it. Likewise I could send a tweet but that seems overtly public and also lame. The best I have come up with so far is to send her a series of snapchats every day of me holding up a letter in different locations spelling out like “will you go to prom with me?” Which could be cool… I could also have my friends do something in person and hold up an ipad with me on the screen through skype…</p>
<p>CC do you have any ideas?</p>
<p>The snapchat idea is great, but don’t leave it a day between every letter, it would just be incredibly annoying, and she’d probably have forgotten them by the time she got the next one.</p>
<p>The snapchat thing is cute, but think it through… if I got a bunch of random letters from a guy, I’d be confused as hell haha.</p>
<p>agreed, send the letters one after the other, maybe, in the same hour. a day in between will drag it on for too long.</p>
<p>Don’t do anything elaborate/public unless you’re 100% sure she wants to go with you anyway…it’s not fair if she feels like she can’t say no because you made a big deal out of asking. Calling and asking seems fine to me.</p>
<p>lol make sure that she wants to go with you before perhaps embarrassing yourself in an extravagant way. I’d give her an ask through the phone.</p>
<p>Agreed on the note of making sure that she’d want to go with you. I’m not sure if you’re a musical person, but I have a friend whose prom date was away at a special high school programme, so he wrote a song about asking her to prom and took a video of him performing it and posted it to her Facebook wall. Slightly cheesy, but it’s still really sweet, and you can make it comedic :)</p>
<p>The thing with Snapchat is that she wouldn’t be able to keep them for memories (unless she took screenshots of every message) which, if I were in her position, would be kind of a bummer to me… great idea aside from that, though!</p>
<p>Maybe live chat her (Skype, FaceTime, etc.) and just ask whats up and what not, nothing weird and then you could like say “Hey I’ve got some homework I need help on, would you mind?” she could say yes or sure and then bring the camera down and have like “Will you go to prom with me?” written/typed on the paper and have multiple choice like “A:yes, B: A, C:B” or something like that. Not public just in case AND you’re asking her kind of in person. Idk if this is a bad idea haha sorry</p>
