I need to ask a girl out and I keep trying but I always choke. Please tell me what to do.

There's nothing worse than choking when you want to do something and practicing in front of mirror only works in front of the mirror not when you're face to face with the girl. You don't say your age so that makes it a little tougher but some other ways you could do it are:

Call and ask her over the phone, it's a lot easier when you aren't looking at each other

If you have money be romantic and get her a single rose and on the card ask her "will you got out with me" - don't forget to sign your name - and if you opt for getting it delivered find out when they will deliver it than on the note along with your question and name put down a time and date that you will call her for her answer!!! - and either hand it to her yourself or have it delivered

Go to a card store and make up your own card asking her out, use your imagination but don't get dirty on the card, being sweet and romantic will get you a lot further. You could say something like "I have been wanting to ask you out but whenever I get near you I just get all tongue-tied so I'm using this card to say what I can't .... Will you go out with me?" Again make sure to put your name on it and you can either hand it to her yourself or drop it in her mailbox if they have one of those slots for mail at her house (don't send it postal mail you never know when she'll get it).

Well those are a few suggestions anyhow. Good luck!!!
