You walk down that hallway each day for the past 4 years and you turn to your left and see this beautiful girl standing right there. Each day you tell yourself, that's the girl I will take to prom. Before you can get creative, you have to make sure the girl knows who you are, and it definitely doesn't hurt to be good friends either. Make sure you know what she likes before you do anything crazy because say she doesn't like random things, then you still have the chance to be creative, you just have to be a little more straight forward about it, even though it can still be surprising and not random. The best way is to put some time into your plan, make a strategy with alternative options in case one isn't successful.
So to start off everyone will have the same objective and that is to get this girl to be your prom date. By giving the girl a lot of presents doesn't always work and usually can backfire because she might still say no, and you've just wasted some time and money, plus remember anyone can buy her a gift. You have to be unique, go that extra mile and show your hidden talents that would impress her. However, the first thing you do isn't to impress and it's not overly creative, all you have to do is develop a close bond with this girl and support her when she needs someone to care for her. Knowing she has someone she can trust allows you to go that extra mile and be more creative this way she doesn't think your some sort of freak.
Now with the creative suggestions, how do you work up all that power to ask her if she will go to prom with you, and have the confidence that she will say yes? Easy, like I said earlier impress her, flowers are lame, writing a song for her is a bit lame, and taking her out for dinner and impressing her there may be nice, but it is also kinda original, and she might be like well your a nice guy but this is nothing special its just supper with a good friend. So find that hidden talent of yours, so when she's with you she thinks to herself "wow this guy is amazing, I think I'm the lucky one to be with him". Show your creative side by making a movie for her, with the last lines being will you go to grad with me? It might sound a little lame but make a treasure hunt for her, where she has fun doing it. Take her out on a picnic, anybody can go to a restaurant.
There are many options but the fact is that the situation is dependent on what your capable of doing, as well as what the girl desires. You may have to take more then one shot, but the creative idea is all up to you, I'm just here to guide you up to that point, so you're able to take handle of this situation and become incharge of who that special lady your going to take to prom. Just remember, make sure she isn't madly in love with someone else or already has a prom date because your chances may be reduced by just a little bit.
