Article: Depending on the girl, she may not be thrilled to be asked out in front of her friends, family, or in a really public situation. Try to gauge her embarrassment level and what she's into, and create an ask that will appeal to her! Keep it short and simple with something along the lines of, “Will you go out with me?” Then, you can figure out a creative way to get the note to her so its' a surprise!  For example, offer her a piece of gum that’s wrapped in a note with your question written on it. Alternatively, you might try slipping the note into one of her notebooks so she sees it when she gets to class. If you're good friends, try recording the time you spend together in a notebook. As you get to know her more, you’ll write more entries expressing your feelings. Once you’re ready to ask her out, write it in the journal and present it to her.  Write a note on a blank page that says, “There are 40 more pages in this journal. The first 19 pages were our memories from my perspective. I’d like the remaining to be memories from our perspective. Be mine?” If you don't know her very well, this may come across as a bit creepy, so make sure she'd like this ask! Just take her phone when she’s not looking and change your name in her contacts to “Be My Girlfriend,” and put a cute image of a baby animal as your picture. Give her the phone back and call her. Only do this if you know that she won’t be put off by you sneaking into her phone.
