Ladies...is this the best way to ask a girl to prom -- EVER?

Alright so I (a senior guy) am going to ask a friend of mine to prom in the next few days. I could just ask her regularly, but that would be boring. So my idea is to get a balloon and a really really long string and get a friend to tie it around her car while we're having dinner. Attached to the long balloon string would be several cards. Together they would spell something like "Dear Lauren...Would you please...give me the pleasure...of taking you...to prom?" Inside the balloon would be a piece of paper with my signature on it. Now, after dinner I would split before she sees the balloon. Then, I would watch from a distance until she gets to the end. At which point I would drive back around and say "Hey I forgot something," and hand her a bouquet of flowers.



Is this too over the top? I know she would say yes, I'm her first choice to go to prom. Also, has anyone heard of this before? I want it to be original.



Thanks in advance.

That sounds soooo sweet! I know personally, I'd have to be mopped up off the pavement if I got an invite like that. :)



I say go for it, it's an extremely romantic and creative idea!
Reply:all u have to do is just go up to her or have a friend go up to her and say " will u go to the prom with _____". That is how i am going to ask my person to the prom.
Reply:Yeah, that's cute, but it's gonna be over WAY quick and might not be as romantic as planned. Try to draw it out longer. Build up the suspense and excitement for the girl, like doing some sort of scavenger hunt. You can still include the balloon idea, just go further with the idea.
Reply:That is really original and sweet. I think she will love it. Its definately not to over the top and its something you both will remember forever. Have fun
Reply:lol. that sound adorable! do it!!
Reply:you should do it. It sounds soooooooooo........romantic!!!!
Reply:sounds alright
Reply:grow a pair and just ask her- get her drunk, nail her in the back of the rental car, dump her off at her house and move on
Reply:That is a very good idea but are you sure the balloon will float with all the cards and stuff on it??
Reply:I don't think that's over the top you should do that. Its not really original but she would probably love that! I would say yes if someone asked me out like that!Thats so romantic!!
Reply:just ask her









and be confidant
Reply:all tat is cool but staying with her is more fun to watch. the expressions on her face. dont need a bouquet a single rose would do.
Reply:That's very sweet. I think you should do it.
Reply:Sound very good from here.
Reply:u could do that if u were to marry her! way to over the top! just ask her. she would probably say yes if u just brought her flowers or something
Reply:That sounds good to me if it all went right.

Make sure you don't sit by a window where she can see her car.



It is very original. I'm sure she would say yes. Do you go out to dinner with her already? That might be the hard part to get her to say yes to. If she does go, there will be no problem with the prom thing.

GOOD LUCK!!!!
Reply:that is adorable, and very different. I would definitely do it :) good luck!
