A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

We're friends but I like her, I can't tell her just yet though because we work (retail) together and it can make the situation very awkward.

We've hung out alone twice before and I feel like every time progress has been made, I think she may like me.

I want to ask her to hang out again, but how can I word it so that it isn't a date, but that it hints at it. If I straight ask her out, it could become awkward. If i just ask her to chill then it could seem like I just want to be friends.

I want her to be thinking: "Okay he wants to hang out, but it also sounds like he's really into me and is pushing for a date." I want it to be subtle enough that I can say I was asking her to hang out in case something bad happens and also clever enough to turn it around and say "yes, i'm asking for a date" in case she gives me a clear signal.

LoveWiz agony auntWell, Number One, I am super pleased you used correct punctuation. It makes my reading much clearer. Second, do you have something in common? A love for skateboarding? An obsession over superhero movies? Similar cars? Something! Lets make it "Your Both Obsessed over Harry Potter". Buy two tickets, say a friend canceled, and offer her the other. Say you'll buy popcorn if she sneaks in M&Ms. It sounds innocent, fun, and is a great chance to bond while your waiting for the movie to start. Problem solved. That's how my BF got me...
