Question:
How would I word this better for a girl I'm asking out

"Hey do you still have a boyfriend? And if not would you be open to us talking."

Grow a set & go up to her & say the following. If Covid doesn’t take you out can I?
Do it face to face & none of this texting, Facebook, Instagram asking someone out bullshit that people do nowadays. If you want something in life go for it & if she happens to have a boyfriend or girlfriend respect it & respectful move on.

That doesn't work anymore, now n days in highschool if you ask a girl out face to face it becomes a big deal and now you look like a weirdo for it same if I spoke from the heart instead of being blunt

Well it works but it doesn't quite have the same effect as it probably did when social media was still at its infancy

Be honest speak from the heart however this sounds forcef
