How to ask a lady for a dance

If you are too shy to invite your crush or any beautiful girls in the corner for a dance, well here are some tips and guidelines to help you. Scared of being rejected? That would not happen if you simply think of it as a way of enjoying the activity.

Here are some are guidelines:

1. First you have find your target partner, before the coming prom or what ever party or activity. If you have not known here information try to make friends with her friends first and make way to use her friends to introduce you to her.
2. Make a conversation with any topic that she love to talk about, then try to insert topics about dancing and prom. Find out if she already has a partner for the dance by asking her, or her friends. By phrasing the question casually you can find out what you need to know with minimal risk.
3. Once you the girl is a friend to you, you are confident to ask her for a dance, but make sure you two are alone (not suspiciously alone) before you ask her to the dance, as this will be more comfortable for everybody. Take a deep breath and walk by her, pay a compliment and start a conversation. Don't rush out your question to get it over with. Have confidence even if you are nervous, its natural..let it out. The chances are she will have made her decision before you ask her anyway. If she says no, do not ask why. Say, "Oh. Alright. That's fine." Don't make it evident if she's hurt your feelings. If you are worried that she will say no, but you really need a date, do something that will sweep her off her feet, something so "cute" she can't say no.
4. Drive to pick her up for the dance, be sure you are not late and not that too early; if you cannot drive, then meet her at the dance.
5. Tell her she looks nice and dont joke around on how she look. This is very important as many girls put a lot of time into looking nice for a school dance, and for their dates. Let her know you appreciate it. If she compliments your outfit, say thanks. Do not wait for her to compliment you first.
6. Escort your partner always and especially at the dance, always be at her side unless she asks to talk or go somewhere for a few minutes.

7. Volunteer to get her a drink.

Smile at her and talk, make her laugh. She's probably just as nervous as you are. And if she seems like she doesn't want to dance, let it go.
9. Ask your date to dance. You may be formal and ask, "May I have this dance?" but if she is a friend of yours you might want to go with something a little more casual like: "Would you like to dance?" or even "wanna dance?"
10. Talk to her a little during the slow dances. Talking makes it a little more comfortable for the both of you.
11. If you'd like to dance with a friend, get permission from your date first. Going without consulting her is disrespectful. If she does it to you, don't mention it. Don't ruin it for the both of you. If she asks to dance with a friend, say yes.
12. Give her a hug when the dance is done. Tell her you had a great time and you enjoy time with her. She will probably will give you wonderful smile and would say the same thing.
