Can a girl ask a guy to a dance?

Abby

Hey y’all!!! So I’m just gonna dump all my sappy relationship stuff here... So I really like this guy, and we’re pretty good friends. I’m a 9th grader this year and out winter formal is coming up, which is the only dance that freshman can go to. I don’t mind going by myself or with a group of friends but would also really like to go with a guy. Is it weird if I ask him to the dance?
