Hey guys, it's that time of year again. Prom is almost here and I was wondering if y'all have had any experience in using magic to ask the question? I do mainly card magic and would love to hear yalls thoughts!
Thanks!
Every year a post like this goes up, and every year it garners the same three responses.
1. helpful supportive
2. helpful anti-supportive
3. someone to flame the first two for their opinions, and then remind them that this has been done before.
So I think I'll just cut bait and get to the point....
If you want to do something like this then Kevin James floating rose, paper roses, french kiss, or other romanticly themed effects could be the way to go, HOWEVER...
I think personally using magic for this purpose is incredibly tacky, and should be left to staged performances, not interpersonal communication techniques. This is a special time in your life, and one you may be thankful you didn't bring a deck of cards on. Try the old fashioned way, cards, roses, candy, and manning up to the task. Trust me it takes more balls to just out right ask a girl to the dance than it does to overcompensate for the lack of them by hiding the question within the format of a card trick.
On a related note: I've asked a female co-worker and actress what her opinion on the matter is. What would she prefer, and she also advises that from a womans point of view it's better to just ask her out, and save the card tricks for later.
There... All three replies rolled up into one neat little box with a bow. Who loves you best?!
