the actual asking.

" would you like to go out with me, some time? "

" we should get drinks together. "

" i'm ordering in pizza for dinner tonight. you wanna join me? "

" what time does your shift end? i can pick you up, we'll get dinner? "

" look... they were a complete asshole to stand you up like this. but the night is still young. why don't you join me/us? i'm/we're headed to a party a few blocks from here, it's meant to be really fun! "

" i can't believe you've never eaten there! come on, i know a guy who works there, we can get a table right this second! "

" i don't... i don't wanna be forward or pushy, but... if you're free some time this week, maybe we could go out? "

" i love flirting with you, but i'd have even more fun dating you. "

" so... i've been invited to this party tonight, and i kinda need a plus one. would you... i mean, do you wanna come with me? "

" i was thinking of going to the movies tonight. you should come! "
