How To Ask A Guy Out - 3 Hints To Asking A Guy Out On A Date

Long ago were the days of a woman patiently awaiting Prince Charming's approach. Now, more than ever, women are beginning to take some initiative when it comes to their success in the dating world. There's actually nothing wrong with actively pursuing Mr. Right. You just have to know the right way to do it.

So, in order to have more successfully in asking a guy out, then you need to consider another few important factors that will dictate the outcome of your actions. Here are the three helpful hints on how you can ask a guy out on a date.

1). Be Confident

No matter how well you can smooth talk a person, if you are just not confident enough, then your whole act of asking a guy out will not end up successful.

You need to believe that you can and show it to the person you are asking out, in order to make him say 'yes' to your proposal. Just be confident about it! Remember, guys are "supposed to" ask girls out, but any girl who defies this "rule" is worth considering!

2). Be Direct

Remember, don't beat around the bush. If you want to ask a guy out, then ask the guy out directly. Most people have a tendency to not understand what other people are trying to say if they just keep diverting the subject, expecting the other person to read between the lines. Most people, men and women, aren't good at reading between the lines - they either get it wrong, or don't get it at all. You need to make it plain in the simplest terms possible, be frank, and tell them exactly what you want to say.

For examples:

"Frank, if you're not doing anything this weekend, do you want to go out with me?"

"Jason, how about catching a movie with me this Friday?"

"Tom, if you don't go out with me you're a fool and you're missing out on the greatest thing since sliced bread".

"David, what are you doing this Friday night at 8pm? I have two tickets to the New Kids On the Block Reunion Concert, and I'd love for you to come with me."

The thing is to make it clear to them that you want to hang out, just the two of you. This part is very important! You don't want him to bring his sister or his mate Sarah along. One more things, if it is possible, try not to ask him out over the phone or get a friend to do it. Boys like a girl with courage and someone that is not terrified of talking to him.

TIPS: Before you ask him out make sure that you are face-to-face and alone together. Never ask him out when he is at a table surrounded by guys. They will usually influence him to say no or only say yes because of wrong reasons.

3. Don't over do it.

While guys appreciate a woman that is able to speak her mind and express her interest, there are still limits to the amount of aggressiveness that a man can and will accept. The solution is to smile and use gentle tones while asking him out. This allows you to be aggressive, while still maintaining your non-threatening posture.

Finally, you have nothing to be nervous when asking a guy out. Just be cool and relax! Actually, guys typically love being asked out, since they're the ones usually doing all the work in these situations. If he says no, then it is not the end of the dating world for you. Just one guy is not a big deal!
