I am in no way socially inept, but prom in my town is a big deal. Anyway, I'm going on a date with the girl on friday, and I need a couple of good ideas to ask her to prom. Must be inexpensive though, like, 20 bucks or less. Suggest away!🙂

The best advice I can give you is not to follow any advice given to you from an internet message board filled with people who are not very good at dealing with "the three dimensional people out there in that world with the big bright yellow sphere in the air". 😛 If you're already going on the date with her, just ask her. It doesn't sound special, but you'd be amazed at how often just plain ol' asking works.

Zemmervolt - if you'd like to gauge my effectiveness in dealing with people "in real life", come talk to me in real life.
Regardless of how shy people may be in real life, the majority of us aren't that socially inept. I do say, though, feel free to speak for yourself. 😀
Just plain old asking is usually the best way to ask, although if you can do it in a romantic way, you'll both be the better for it.

<< I asked my gf at the time to prom in sign language... it was cool, 'cuz she was fluent in sign language and I didn't know a lick of it, but I learned what I needed to know to ask her. 😀
Anything along those lines that's possible? >>
Dude that is f_cking awesome, thats like a dream man. Thats like totally perfect...wish the chick Im gonna ask knew sign language 😉
Since she is going out with you on Friday, she obviously isn't against the idea of being with you. Wait until you two make some sort of connection on the date and then just ask. It's april and she is starting to stress about not getting asked.
It's really tuff on us girls to have to wait until you guys finally ask.
Sarah <== went to 2 proms. 1 memory of lifetime, 1 waste of time.

I should have been more clear on the fact that since I was here to post the message, I was included in that group. And the "😛" was because I didn't mean it seriously. You're right that finding a romatic way can be better, but I still think that simple straigh-up asking is all-around the best way because it's really hard to screw up. That's an important consideration for people like me. 😀 I wanted to point out that plain ol' asking does work most of the time and he shouldn't be too terribly worried about finding the "right" way to ask.

One last thing, it's "ZeNmervolt". 😛 (I don't really care, no-one else spells it right anyway.)
