How do I ask my friend out?
Ask her out. Take the risk. Here's a story that hopefully will push you to do so:When I was a junior in high school, I had Spanish with this guy, and we became friends. As the year went on, we became closer and closer until he was pretty much my best friend. Moreover, I started to figure out that he started to like me more than just a best friend. And our friends and classmates tended to joke with us and ask us if we were dating. I used to say no, but I could tell that no one seemed to believe me. If he had asked me out during that year, I probably would have said yes. However, he did not, and we continued to talk and hang out a lot. We remained closer than ever, and we started senior year best friends still. But by then I knew for a fact that he liked me. It was sweet and sorta obvious, but I never quite knew how I felt. We hung out a lot, and everything was normal for us. He was my best friend, but I did not know if I liked him more than a best friend. And I knew he would not do anything to change it. I would have to be the one to take our relationship to the next level. But I was unsure of how I felt. Until his birthday. The moment I realized it was his birthday that February of senior year, I knew I had to hang out with him and celebrate with him. It was a desire that I never had had with my other close friends. That was when I knew I liked him more than a best friend, and I wanted to find out if it was enough to like him as a boyfriend. So I asked him to prom a week later, and he said yes. I was ecstatic. The next week, he, our friends, and I went to the movies together. It was then that he asked me out on a date, and our relationship began. It was a fun 3 months. It only lasted that long because we graduated high school and were going to different colleges. Our 3 month relationship was great. He asked me to prom by writing me a sonnet in Spanish because we met in Spanish class and I love languages. I definitely started to fall for him during those 3 months.We could have been together nearly 2 years instead of 3 months if he had asked me out earlier or not waited for me to ask. Looking back I wish he had, no matter how confused I was about my feelings for him. Ask her in a way that is meaningful to both of you. Or just ask point blank. You can save the romantic gesture for another occasion. Either you remain friends because you both choose to do so, or you step out of your comfort zone and date. The choice is up to you. Good luck!
Can you get into Hollywood with no connections at all?
I'm an actor in high school (sophomore) in Portland, Oregon, and I love acting more than words can say. I really want to become an actor down in Hollywood, hopefully before TOO much time passes. I've been taking classes since I was six years old. I took community-center classes till about age nine, then I began performing around Portland, until I was about fourteen. Outside of that, I've been in six school plays since eighth grade, including Jesus Christ Superstar, Macbeth, and The Glass Menagerie. I regularly go to drama club meetings, I'm going to letter in drama this year, and I'm going to interview to be on the drama cabinet come next year. Other than that, I can dance, I can sing okay considering I've never taken a lesson (hopefully going to start soon), and I'm hopefully going to start gymnastics soon. Also, I would say I'm decently attractive (6'3", 185 pounds, almost 16, swimmer's build, brown hair, blue eyes), and I've been told that I'm really talented, with a lot of potential. I'm also very patient, but VERY determined to get what I want. I may audition to be an extra on Portlandia (tv show), and start looking at the "call-board" in the newspaper. A problem: I've heard you need connections to get into the entertainment business. Other then the fact that my neighbor is friends with Neil Patrick Harris, and I might meet him sometime, I have nothing. Any thoughts? What should I do? Thanks much.
Is the Hollywood Bread Company still operating?
I was recently in Hollywood Florida where I saw the "Hollywood Bread Company" atop a building and tried to find it at a local grocery store but they didn't have a clue what I was talking about. Is Hollywood Bread still made? and where is it available?
Do you have to move to LA to be an Hollywood actor? 10 points!?
I think you mean by "Hollywood actor" you mean to be 'famous' or a 'film star'? If that is the case, the answer is no. In fact, studies show that it is easier to land a film role if you have established yourself in NY before heading to LA. NY actors have a different training, and are different than the 100000000000 'bubble headed beach blondes' that have no training, but go to auditions in LA because they believe they have the 'right look.' Or that's the scene they grew up in, so they just follow suit. Also a lot of agencies that cast major motion films are bi coastal and will send you to whichever coast they see most beneficial for you to be cast in, because they make their money off of your opportunities. I'm not saying, that you can't make it if you move to LA. People have and still do. There are opportunities in LA., and there is some talent. I'm just saying it is not necessary to have to live there to get your start or big break.
Should I ask a friend out over text?
No, don't make that mistake. Drop a few hints in conversation before asking her out in person. If you're too shy, then CARPE DIEM! Go for it without thinking, overthinking ruins everything.
What celebrity do you have distant social connections with?
Define “celebrity”.Because there’s a couple of well-known people that I’ve trained and worked with, but that’s in very specific spheres. It’s not like I can say “my cousin is friends with Margot Robbie’s assistant”.But here’s the one that springs to mind:That’s Professor Royce Gracie, of UFC fame and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu legend.My BJJ coach got his black belt under Professor Gracie. So I don’t know how distant that particular social connection is. He was there when I got my purple belt. But he’s probably the most well-known person that I have a connection with.By the way, you couldn’t ask to meet a cooler guy.There are a few people in the MMA/kickboxing world that I’m familiar with, some on a first name basis. I’ve also worked with some well-known people in the AI research and consulting realms, but generally not people would consider a “celebrity”.It’s been an interesting life so far, I hope it stays that way.
How do I ask my crush/friend out?
Why not? But you are taking a risk asking her out if she doesn’t feel the same way about you. So what? In books that’s a risk worth taking.Everything we do in life is a risk one way or the other, heck life is a risk. So, are you going to just sit there and watch you window of opportunity pass you by?This is one-thing that I can guarantee you that if you don’t do, will be among your list of regrets later in life. It’s better to try and fail than never trying in the first place.Now that we have dealt with the why, lets talk a bit about the how because if you do it right, the chance of her saying yes will be high and do it wrong, you just might be staring at a rejection.Here are a few points-1- Initiate flirting but gradually don’t overwhealm her2- If you are confident enough use flattery but only so mildly and if you are really sincere and honest about it3- Humor goes a long way, at least it will take the edge off of any pressure she might feel4- When you do this make sure that you are focused on her, don’t fidget or be distracted, be direct and precise5- Be ready if she says no and make sure you are okay with it. Also, have a plab B on how to go forward with your friendship if she says no.Remember a No is not the end of the world, so go out there do your thing and fun while doing it, life is too short my friend.I have written a review about the best and creative date ideas that might help you win her heart, go check it out.
