Homecoming is a time that can be stressful for both guys and girls. Boys have the disadvantage of having to ask the girls and finding very creative ways of doing just that, and like most people the are quite nervous during this process.

Were you nervous and why?

“Yes, I was nervous because I had to talk to her parents face to face and I didn’t want to come across as a bad guy.” –Josh Chatfield

There are many guys asking girls around this time of year and they are doing this in many different and creative ways.

"I wrote on a sign with glow in the dark paint saying my wishh is homecoming.. will you? Then put glow in the dark stars all over her room with HC on them.” –Josh Chatfield

“I left a pinata with balloons on her porch and the ballons said break the pinata. Once she did there was a note inside that said "You broke my pinata, dont break my heart too. Homecoming wont be fun unless its with you." –Jake Opheim

“I printed off these packer tickets then i said i got these tickets for us but they are the same date as homecoming so i was wondering what you would wanna go to with me? ” –Derek Schiebel

While they stand flustered trying to come up with the best way to ask, there are plenty of other things on their minds too. Such as how they feel about having to ask the girl or why they feel they have more pressure on them.

How do you feel about guys having to ask girls?

"Its fine, atleast we have sadies for the girls to ask for once." -Derek Schiebel

 Do you feel guys have more pressure on them than girls and why?

 "Yes, because we have to do most of the work. Ask them, pay for most and lots of other stuff."  -Jake Opheim

Over all Homecoming is an exciting and enjoyable night you get to spend with all your friends, even if it starts out a bit stressful.
