How exactly do you "JAHO"

Post » Thu Feb 03, 2011 2:49 pm

In february I'm going to a place where there is a girl I really like and I want to ask her out
But I have no idea how to
It'll be the first girl I ever ask out
I'm thinking a movie might be a good idea but I thought I'd start this thread to prepare

So how do you "JAHO"?

If I want one more case of emotional and economical ruin, I'd gladly ask someone out. The thing is... I don't.

I don't. I don't think I've ever had to be the one who asked the other anything that could be considered just asking her out. My personal favorite was:

"My roommate snores, can I sleep with you? I mean sleep in your dorm?"

Then we dated for 2 years. So use that one.

Being totally blunt like marko suggests can be good, but it might come across as a little too blunt. Try and get near her somehow, and then comment about something you both have in common (If you're in a club say; "nice music" or something like that) Just get a conversation going. Only then should you go for markos line.

Although I would've made it a little more colorful.. By colorful I don't mean; "hello [insert name here] I am going to go see [insert movie name here] on [insert day here] would you like to go with me? Ill pay"

I mean't, add a little more detail, make her laugh, get to know each other better, compliment her, show off some of your skills etc..

What will work 100% of the time is walk up to her, look her square in the eyes and perform the traditional mating call headbutt.

Do you have to ask her out? Are you afraid someone else is going to?

I find that relationships often grow on accident. Just being a good friend, spending a lot of time together, etc. can lead to you not needing to ask anyone out outright.

Just, whatever you do, it's usually not a good idea to ask people out over text message, e-mail, a note, a friend, or something indirect like that. 'Course that sometimes depends on certain circumstances.

It can be anywhere you want thats just an example.

Playing games like Sims or Fable makes asking girls out easier. Just do what the character does, and you'll be okay.

Sims Method:

Under the "Friendly" tab:
Chat x 2
Get to Know x 1
Admire x 1
Compliment x 2
Friendly Hug x 2

Once the relationship is up to 40; switch to the "Romantic" tab;

Confess Attraction x 1
Hold Hands x 2
Amorous Hug x 2
First Kiss x 1
Kiss x 2
Makeout x 2
Propose Going Steady x 1
Kiss x 1
Makeout x 1
Woohoo x 1

Done.

Fable Method:
Shake hands x 1
Dance x 1
Lute x 1
Show Trophy x 1
Bring Gift x 1
Take on Date x 1
Kiss x 1
Marry x 1
Hold Hands and take to bed. (protected).

Done.

Just tell her that you like her and you'd like to ask her out. If you think of some really complicated way you're gonna do it or overthink it, you'll end up getting nervous and forgetting what you were gonna do.

There's nothing wrong with just outright asking. Simple =/= bad.

They are generally unattractive too. That's probably why. In Fable III however, you have to get gifts and what not. I should probably add that in there..

You show the prospective partner your trophy before you give her a gift? That's a very forward approach there.

Get into conversation and find out what she likes. If she's into films, talk about what ones she's looking forward to and then maybe see if she wants to see that one with you, or if she likes gigging, suggest a band/open mic night she might like to see with you. If it's your first date ever, I'd personally stay away from the more "formal" dinner option - it can be pretty awkward if you're the nervous type. My first two dates involved bowling and ice skating - we were having fun so we kind of forgot to be awkward :)

Remember, confidence is your best friend. Remain confident. Keep a few of your greatest achievements at the forefront of your mind, it might help. Like "Yeah, if I can climb Mt. Everest, I can surely ask a girl out!"

Don't get conceited though. :P

Funny thing is, I've seen this one in action. It worked. Perfectly. :mellow:

Dont forget the baggy white open necked tunic. It's all for nothing without that.


Also, my advice, dont go to a movie on the first date. You should really give her a chance to actually speak to you if you hope to have a second, and speaing in the cinema is generally frowned upon.

I killed 53,595 zombies in Left4Dead, will that help?
