Girls, stop wondering when that cute guy is going to ask you out -- just do it yourself!

Asking a guy out may sound like one ticket you won't be buying for the scary-go-round that is dating, but it's easy -- and more women are making the first move. So, here's how to do it!

Flirt
It's our greatest weapon -- utilize it! Laugh at his jokes, compliment his clothes, bat those beautiful eyes. Some guys love the attention, even if they won't admit it.

Be Direct
You could hold a sign over your head reading "Would you like to have dinner tonight?" and he still might say, "Huh?" Be as clear as you can, especially if you were pals beforehand.

Be Confident
You're unique, charming and beautiful inside and out -- what's not to love? Approach him knowing you've got something special -- and nothing to lose. If he doesn't see it, someone else will.

Find Common Ground
As you're showing off your infinite charm, get him to open up to you about his hobbies. If you find something in common (think movies, surfing or tennis), ask if he'd like to do it with you!

hi tyra i want to tell you that sometimes when you fell conident about yourself they will never notice you. i'm 17 i never got a boyfriend i'm not saying that they talk to they do but i get hating them or there's something about them that i don't like. this year i had a crush on someone but he never notice that cuz i really don't show my emotions unless i tell you . that the things about me if i don't tell you that i'm interested in you you'll never found out. i guess that why they don't want to talk to me any more or i'm too ugly at least that what i think of me.
 
Hi tyra Asking a guy out is not a big thing. I had a major crush on my friend. I hardly saw him, so I sent him a message inviting him for a debs ball. I had never been to one and I needed company. My favourite cousin took part. I thought of him. I am 22 years old and he is at the same university as me.That was the ideal chance. I sent him an sms and he responded back. I dressed up really to impress and he was wowed by the way I looked. We got on well and after that we went out to the movie. The next week I had a guy telling me he saw me at the movies with my boyfriend [lol]. But girls don't be afraid coz I was, I asked my close friend for advise and she gave it to me and it worked, Goodluck gals! Dnt be shy we young only once
