one of my best friends is going to her bf's school dance and wants me to come with a date they found me, i cleaned the house and my sister made my moms fav dessert and were waiting for her to come home from work and give her time to cool off before asking her, any advice?
 
tell your mom your really organized like what your going to wear and exactly who your going with and how your getting there... it works for me when i ask for something lol
 
Ask her if she went to dances when she was wrong...I am sure she did. (at least for your sake I hope she did!) How old are you, by the way? If you are younger than 12, Mom has a right to say no. Ask her to drive you and your friends there so she can check your BF's friend out, for her approval.
 
Ask her to think if there are any conditions she can put on the night that could turn a no into a yes. Like meet the date first, get home right after the dance is over, check in with her at certain times, talk to your girl friend's mom,etc.
 
Ask her to go and if she says yes or no be nice to her until the dance and you could try the guilt trick but that doesnt always work sometimes parents will say" i dont care if your friends are going, im not their parents"and if your parents are like mine then try to explain that it isnt bad to go to a dance and talk about the good parts of it :D
 
well good job buttering her up! moms always like a plan so make sure to show that you've done your homework. Make sure to tell her where the dance is, who will be there, how you will get there and home and what time you wish to stay out until. Also note that you are flexible with your curfew. You may not want to include that this is a blind date, you are going with a group of friends right? ;)
 
If she says no, then you need to respect that. She may have her reasons, dont pester her.
