By an eHow Contributor

Dating as a kid is hard. Asking your first crush out on a date takes a lot of nerve; you may be afraid she will say no or laugh at you. It doesn't have to be hard if you take precautionary measures and plan thoroughly, you can ensure that the first time you ask your crush out goes smoothly. Follow these steps to learn how to get a date.

Instructions

1. • 1
     Ensure that your crush is interested in you. If she smiles when you walk by or goes out of her way to talk to you, she might be interested.
   • 2
     Find common interests. When you talk to her try to find out what she is interested in. If you both want to see the same movie, you have the perfect opportunity to ask her out on a date.
   • 3
     Ensure that you have a ride to and from your date before you ask her out. The hardest part about dating as a kid is arranging transportation, so make sure you make arrangements in advance.
   • 4
     Make specific plans. Before you ask her out, decide where you want to take her; it's easier to ask her out to a movie or bowling than to ask her if she wants to get together sometime.
   • 5
     Ask her out in private. If you ask her out on a date in front of her friends you may embarrass her and if she says no, you will end up being embarrassed because she rejected you in front of an audience.
   • 6
     Invite some friends, because when you are a kid it's more comfortable to go out with a group of friends then to go out as a couple. Most parents prefer for their kids to go out with a group because it takes away a lot of the dating pressure.
