There is this one girl. Her parents are close friends to my parents. We are friends. We do swimteam (just throwing that out there).  I really want to ask her out.

I couldn't manage to ask if she wanted to do something even if I wanted to.

Plus, even if I did ask her out, idk how busy her schedule is, or if her parents would approve. (Another problem [I think] is that neither of us can drive, so it would be hard for my parents or her parents to take us anywhere)
Any advice?

[cashwarrior1]

I say you should become closer friends with her before thinking that far ahead.

fucking go for it, you regret what you didn't more than what you did

This should be prerequisite reading before you're allowed to post on this thread.

This should be prerequisite reading before you're allowed to post on this thread.

I can't exactly agree with that...I mean, if you've known someone for a long time and have teetered on the edge of asking then sure, it's a good idea, but don't do this with people you don't know so well. You might actually regret it.

What wrong with asking someone out if you're not close with them yet?

[SlowPokemon]

Yeah actually I'd argue the exact opposite of Dudeman

[WaluigiTime64]

I mean, if you don't know them very well, and they don't know you very well, then hitting on them might have a negative effect on your reputation in their eyes.

Honestly both sides are arguable. I'll try not to get too involved lol.

It's a difference in personal philosophy. There's no definitive "should" or "shouldn't"; people operate in different ways. I know people who end up just fine either way.

Personally, though, I'd never dream of asking someone out who I didn't get to know pretty well first.

tbh i was only ever interested in the people i knew well but like... the point of going on dates is to know people better...................................... so

(in other words: i agree with you slow)

[AmpharosAndy]

There's no definitive "should" or "shouldn't"

That's because 'should' isn't definitive, it's a suggestion. 'Must' is definitive.

or if her parents would approve

First step is to get on her parents' good side. I always did that (for the parents of the girls that eventually friendzoned me), and the parents always smiled at me. They didn't even restate the rules, because they trusted me. Be nice to every adult you meet; word travels, my friend.

Think of it this way: if the parents like you, they may even encourage their daughter to start dating you!

Stand back everyone

I asked a near complete stranger to senior prom.  We had some fun, but there wasn't a lot of chemistry between us.  I like her a lot as a friend and if I still lived there we'd probably hang out occasionally.  Dating isn't always about finding your soul mate and there aren't prerequisites to dating someone outside of them saying yes

Just kiss her, that'll solve all your problems
