well boys and girls, its about that time again, homecoming. kind of a personal topic so ill try to leave out things people dont care about but i thought it'd be an interesting topic, plus im curious myself, anyone got any good stories about how they asked/were asked to homecoming? i have a pretty good idea how im gonna do it but some exposure to what everyone else has done would be good. what really doesn't work, works really well, etc....

We don't really ask people to go to the homecoming dance or w/e with us, we just go, and then get laid afterwards.

I never went to one homecoming dance. After the game I just went out with some people and we had our own type of fun.

Never took a date to homecoming, there always seemed to be more drama in that than i wanted to be involved in.

It depends, are you playing a sport? Are you in the band? Will you just be setting on the side lines? If you are playing, make some good plays and the girls will find you. If you are in the band, find a band geek (female sax players and clarinet players are easiest.) If you are on the side lines, find a girl on the opposing team and lie to her :evillol:. That is provided your school wins and you have bragging rights. :iceslolan

Only went to homecoming my senior year of high school. The girl's sister was dating a buddy of mine. He gave me a letter from her telling me all the normal b.s. She was a freshman. She definately turned my senior year into a very interesting one by the end. I'm surprised I haven't run into her after all these years.

This year I'm getting dragged by my best friend. Her boyfriend dumped her like two weeks ago so I'm here to save the day. I usually wouldn't worry about finding a date for homecoming, I have better things to spend my money on.

I got asked to homecoming once. The only problem was is that I didn't make it past my living room couch. I was stood up...tragic night it was. I spent the evening eating nachos while watching "Never Been Kissed".
I'm going ponder my high school memories for a while now. And then think of all the names of people I will seek revenge on. Tootle Loo!

Went to one of each, would have just as easily have stayed home. Not worth it in my opinion, but then again, I can't dance, I hate dance music and I hate dressing up.

Chicks dig guys like that. :loser:
Been to them all... had fun. Just don't blow it out of proportion... realize that it's just a high-school dance, not the be-all-end-all event of the century. Relax and have fun.
As far as asking girls to them, I usually just figured out who I wanted to ask (without going way out of my league), and usually started a conversation with them about something else, then I'd just ask them if they already had plans, if the answer was no, then I'd ask them. That way, they have the option of saying "Yes, me and _______ are going to the dance", rather than you asking them and them burning you down with a "no". And you can always pretend you were just asking for the sake of conversation "Oh really? that's cool, _______ is a good guy! Where are you guys going for dinner, etc..."
If they say they don't have plans yet, then ask them point blank. Worst case is they'll say no... Go on to the next candidate. Learning how to take rejection without wanting to die is part of the game.
So, no, it doesn't work every time, but if you don't challenge yourself, you'll never get better at it.

Hmmm....about how i asked the girls i took to my homecomings....its pretty complex so try to follow closely...
Me: "Hey, hows it going?"
Girl: "Good how about you?"
Me: "Pretty good, hey, do you have a date for homecoming yet?"
(scenario 1)
Girl: "No, I do not"
Me: "Would you like to go with me?"
Girl: "Sure!"
(scenario 2)
Girl: "Yes, I do have a date."
Me: "Oh, well would you like to leave your date halfway through the night and hook up with me in my hotel room?"
Girl: "Why yes, yes I would, thank you for being such a gentleman"
Its simple, it works.
Me: "Hey, hows it going?"
Girl: "Good how about you?"
Me: "Pretty good, hey, do you have a date for homecoming yet?"
(scenario 1)
Girl: "No, I do not"

thanks for the responses, most of the people in my crowd (mostly emo or punk) make a big deal outta homecoming cuz its somethin to do in a boring town like this. freshmen homecoming was aright but i know it woulda been better with a date. afterparties are always the best part though, i guess we'll see how that goes

i worked at a movie theater when i was in high school and one of the guys i worked with went to my school. he wanted to ask me, so he wrote it on the billboard where they have the names of the movies, then he picked me up from my house and drove us by the theater. as soon as we drove by the theater he pulled a bouquet of flowers from the back seat. of course, i said yes. what kind of girl would say no to that?? i thought it was pretty awesome.

Homecoming and Prom were such a waste of money for me...I just walked right up to the girl I wanted to go with and just flat out asked.

My buddy hooked me up with this weirdo chick my sophomore year.. she never looked you in the eyes when you talked to her, and that just weirded me out. Homecoming sucks, and prom sucks just as much, it just costs a lot more. If you go with somebody you like, then it makes it memorable.
Those kind of chicks are scary if you ask me :lol:
I know its messed up of me to say but yeah they weird me out too.

One thing I hate about homecoming during school is the freaking 5 dollar mums that are sold for about 80 dollars and have about what it seems 50 billion bells on them because the whole school thats all you hear

Homecoming and Prom both seemed a little too preppy for my liking. I just went to the parties afterwards to pick up drunk preppy chicks. What kind of guy doesn't want to hook up with a hot, extremely drunk, preppy chick?

In the closet guys, thats who.
Ah damn, some of the preppy chicks at my school, damn that would be the shit. Hah, I can think of a few I would like to "meet up" with at an after party :grinno:

I'll decide the day before if I want to or not. Seeing as how I have no friends I don't really see how it would be any fun. I'm a loser.
And nobody asks me. WTF? I'm not ugly at all. But no guys ever hit on me or anything. What happened to the days when a teenage girl could go to high school expecting to get date raped?

Unless you don't start acting and dressing like an easy slut get use to it. Hate to say it but, eh, it's high school. You got to show that skin.
