Okay, I know that this is suprimly lame, but I've never asked a guy out... sweatdrop
I just want some advice, ideas, or ways you on how you would ask a guy out.

I think the best way is to tell them you are attracted to them, tell them you would like to date them and then give them some time to think about it. They will make up their own mind as to what they want.

Well there are a lot of different ways to do it, based on how well you know the guy and your own personality. All of them come down to one simple thing.. actually letting the guy know you are interested.

That could involve a "Hey I heard X movie was playing tomorrow night... Wanna go?" in a very causual style. Or waking straight up to him and saying "Wanna go out with me?" or Having a friend tell him you like him, or calling him up on the phone or writing him a letter if you are really shy.

Any method works really... try the one that best suits you.

Try to find a chance to talk to him alone, and just ask him out.

I agree with Chalda mostly.

Because I am a guy, I hope I might be of some help? There isn't much you can do about approaching a guy, because feeling-wise, they/we can be very reserved. I agree, your best bet is to tell him how you feel about him and let him know you're interested in getting to know him better/becoming closer friends. And then pay close attention to how he reacts.

If you come on too strong, the guy will most likely not respond very well. Hence, you should be direct, but don't push. I would just start a few conversations with him, say "hey, you're neat-o, want to spend some time outside of school together?" and voila, instant boyfriend.

More than you think. And of course she's allowed to take artistic license with the terms. Groovy is perfectly acceptable.

Your lingo is great. Translating to modern teens: 'pretty cool' will do just fine, I think. I also agree with Soleq's advice.

Kinda funny because most adults/parents don't know what gay means in teen.

It kind of depends on how you want to do it and the type of person you are to the type of person they are. The first thing that you probably want to do is really decide and figure out if you want to be with that person. Then, I think you should just go over your options for asking him and see which one bests suites you. You could just go up to them ask them, you could send a friend to do it, you can send them a note, you could do it over the phone, or you could do it over the internet. After that I think you should go over how you want to do it. Do you want to say something upfront like, "Hey, you wanna go out with me?" Or do you want to make it something that turns into it like, "Hey, you wanna go to the movies *enter day*?" And see how that goes and then maybe ask them.

It really depends and it's up to you to decide which one that you want. Try not to be afraid to make a fool of yourself because what's more important? What they think or what everyone else thinks? And try not to be afraid of taking a risk. If you go right up to him maybe you want to start with small things first by just saying hi then introducing yourself, then go to the big question.

My opinion.

I think the first big step here is courage, you need to get up he gusto to ask in the first place, you should have dates, and times, know the spacifics, it's easier to say yes that way, in my opinion.
Good luck

Ugh.. never ever ask a guy out through other people... That never works, it shows them that you are either the type who cant stand uo for herself, or dont mean what you really say or feel, among other common problems with communication that comes with that package.
Guys have asked me out through notes, friends, etc. I always say no, just because the way that they gave me the information was inappropriate, and rather childish.
I like my guys with Balls.

"Y HELO THAR. YUU R TEH HAWT. LETS GO OUT"

Not really, but you get the idea. Just tell them how you feel. If that's too hard, write it to them in a letter. smile
