I've realised i don't really know what to say or do when i meet a girl i want to date. I've missed a few opportunities because i can't really articulate myself to ask them on a date. I can have a great conversation with them and make friends really easily but for some reason whenever i want a date i don't know what words or phrase to actually achieve that.
I usually end up just waiting till i've known them and spoke to them for about an hour (say i've met them through friends at a social event) then just ask if they'd like to get a drink some time. I'm not nervous when i ask, i just don't think i'm using the best phrases to be successful at this. Maybe it comes off as a bit aloof or not strong enough?
Can anyone help?
