I think men have more confidence when they've reached their forties because most of the time, if they want to go out, they just ask. However, there are still the shy guys, or guys who just came out of a divorce and have no idea how to start dating again. And there are those guys who want to "impress" the lady with the creative way they are asking.
Here are a few fun tips to help you ask for a date with the minimum of stress:

Create a website: Create a free website, one-page website and hand her the web address on a note for her to look at later with your phone number. On the website tell her were you want to take her, whether the park or theater. Don't make it too hokey with a lot of romantic music. Just use a regular template, maybe put some hearts and other things in it to show that you are interested in taking her out. You can also give a list of reasons why she should go out with you. You can use the description of the event you want to take her too, or why she should go out with you personally.

Ask her out in a foreign language: This one actually worked on me. The guy gave me a piece of paper asking me out in French. He handed me a small French/English dictionary. I went through each of the words in the dictionary until I figured out he was asking me out on a date. I thought that one was pretty cute.

Say it with Balloons: Purchase three or four balloons at your local florist and tie the balloons to her car antenna or bumper with a note asking her out. Do not forget to put down your number! She will probably call to say yes!

Send a formal invitation: A formal invitation has worked since the middle ages. It's the best way to go because you can place an RSVP card for her to send it back to you. Try to mail it to her if you can, if not, handing it too her works too.

Create a coupon: Make a coupon out for like FREE hot chocolate, or a FREE cup of coffee, or FREE lunch, when you go out with me!

Holiday date card: Make a card with a weird Holiday. Like January 8th is National Goat Week, would you like to go to the zoo with me? That's just one example or you can use National Moth Night. Like would you care to go out with me for National Moth Night on September 23rd? There is a list of National "What" Weeks at http://www.naturenet.net/educa tion/dates.html

Sing to her: Sing out your date request to her, add a little Frank Sinatra or Harry Connick, Jr. to the request.

Say it with your dog: Dogs are wonderful "babe magnets" particularly puppies. But even an adult dog works. Put a sign around his neck with your request. "Helen would you go out with me?"

A t-shirt is a great way to ask for a date: Have a t-shirt made up with her name asking if she will go out with you, then on the back print : Please say yes.
