8 flirty tips to make him your Homecoming date

You’ve got the perf dress, the chic shoes and the glam 'do, now all you need is a date. It’s time to stop wishing your crush will ask you to the fall formal and start taking action. Follow these steps to score that hot Homecoming date.

Break the ice
You’ve been eyeing him across the hall but haven’t actually met yet? What are you waiting for! Introduce yourself and give him a compliment. Then, break the ice by chatting about something you both have in common.

 

Stand out
Raise your hand in math, go for that goal in gym or snag that solo in music class. Put yourself in his field of vision and he’ll be sure to remember you.

 

Make sure he’s available
Ask around to make sure your crush is single and available.  If he already has a girlfriend, he probably wouldn’t (and shouldn’t) ask you to Homecoming.

 

Get to know each other
Be friendly and get to know your crush so he can see how awesome you are. Try sitting next to him in the auditorium, joining him and his buds for flag football or inviting him to a co-ed bowling night.

 

Drop a hint
Casually bring up that you’re going to Homecoming but you don’t have a date yet. Fingers crossed he’ll follow your queue.

 

Be confident
Confidence is a super attractive quality; so smile, keep your head up and look him in the eye.  

 

Make it a group thing
Go to Homecoming with a group of your besties and guy friends. You’ll get to dance with everyone, spend more time with your friends and keep it casual around your crush. Be sure to get a pic with that hottie before the night ends.

 

Ask him!
Why waste your time wishing that he’ll ask you when you could be taking charge. If he turns you down, you’ll still have time to find another cute date.

So I like a boy. He's two grades above me (I'm in year 6 and he's year eight) But he's really only a year and a half older than I am. My friends have never met him but they INSIST he's too old for me. My "best friend" thinks he's ugly (She's only seen his facebook). I told them that if they met him they'd realize he's really lovely. He's funny, smart, kind and REALLY strong. Their words really don't help my anxiety disorder. What do I do?

 

Hey girlie, don't worry about what your friends think. Right now you're not even dating or seeing each other, so it's just a crush. And if you're friends don't approve of your crush it's not the end of the world. Don't talk about him as much and let things cool down for now until they meet him and see that he's a really great guy.

so there is this guy that i really like, more than your typical teenage girl crush. i stand next to him in alphabetical order for P.E. and he kinda flirts with me. Last night at my schools homecoming dance, he had a girlfriend, someone who doesn't go to our school. he never told me about her and anyone else. do you think that was just a dance date or what? i am so confused!

 

Hey hes1207, I'm not sure this could go either way. Maybe you can find out by talking to him about it. Try something like, "Did you have fun at the dance? Your date was really pretty does she go here?" Hope this helps! Xoxo

So one of my guy friends is super sweet and funny and we get along very well. Lately I have been having feelings for him. I really don't want to wreck a friendship and some have dated him and it hasn't ended well. What should I do?

Hey girl,

If you already know him, that's good! If you're not sure if he likes you back, though, there's no need to rush into anything, so why not keep being friends with him for now and see how he acts around you to see if he likes you? If you do decide to tell him, it may be awkward at first but your friendship should be strong enough that things will go back to normal eventually!

How do i get my crush to notice me?. I sit next to him in homeroom and we talk, but nothing sparks. I have every class with him and I don't know what to do. From the way he smiles at and asks me help him with something, it feels like he likes me too. I also noticed he a really sweet shy guy, which I like. But how do I get him to come out of his shell?
