How to Ask a Single Woman Out for a Date
Asking a single woman out for a date can be intimidating. The fear is that the woman will say, "No," or even laugh in your face. The trick to asking a single woman out is to try to keep it casual. If you're too intense and ask her out for a very expensive meal, followed by a meeting with your parents, the likelihood is that she will run a mile. However, a movie date in a group situation is less threatening.

Make the request for a date as spontaneous and off-the-cuff as possible. For instance, ask the woman if she would like a cup of coffee as you are going out of a classroom/workplace together. Even though this might be preplanned, it does not come across that way.

Ask the woman for a date face-to-face if possible. However, if you need to telephone, be sure that you explain who you are. There are, after all, many Johns and Mikes.

Suggest a date that is non-threatening, such as a bowling evening with mutual friends or a group outing at a concert. It is less intense to chat and spend time with someone when other people are around, particularly in a first date situation.

Ask for a date during the week rather than the weekend initially. This is not so full-on as the Friday and Saturday date nights and makes it sound less serious.

5
Make sure that the woman knows exactly what you are suggesting for the date. Tell her the time, place and the event. Let her know if you will be picking her up or if you will be meeting at a certain location. Clarity is important when you are asking for the date.

Tips & Warnings
If you know her friends, find out what she enjoys doing and suggest a date based on that.
You might be rejected occasionally but do not take it personally. Practice the art of asking women on dates and it will soon become natural and relaxed.
