of course it's ok. but make sure he knows it's just a friendly dinner. you don't want to be back here asking how to tell a guy you just want to be friends... good luck!!!

Well, dinner before proposing is a very good idea.\nAs for how to ask, be direct, say to her "If you're free next Friday, I'd like to have dinner with you at Such-and-such place." Unless you've left out some important detail, she is not going to be angry about being asked out for dinner, if she says "no" accept it gracefully and just say "Maybe some other time" Her response to that will tell you if she's interested or not.\n My only other advice is, if she accepts your invitation, don't go to an italian restaurant...you'll be nervous enough without high risk foods like pasta and marinara sauce.

You wouldn't have to ask him if you get one of your friends to ask for you. Let's put it this way, If a guy likes you he will let you know buy asking you out or he will show signs that he does. You don't ever ask them.

Well you are on the right track you just need to think of it a little more. Dinner yes seems like a date, but how about lunch, lunch is a nice casual thing that friends do, and if you pick the right place it will just seem like you are just hanging out, dont go to a fancy place but dont go to a fast food place. ASnd it all depends on if you are driving, Dont pick her up, cause that is kinda datish, and if you dont drive find a place you might be able to walk to etc. And movies are the same thing go in the day time not in the night time, and it would look as much like a date

I don't see why not.  It's not like you have to walk up to them and say "Will you go out on a date with me?".  Lot's of things have kind of blurred over 13 years.  Dates can be considered just going out to have fun (screw the formal dressed up stuff, that's not the ONLY thing called a date now!).  If you meet a guy you like, ask him if he'd like to go get a cup of coffee and talk.  Or if your timing is right, ask him if he's hungry and if he'd like to grab something to eat.  Just be around him.  Things will happen.  And yes, women can ask men out too.

How about taking him to dinner just the two of you? Not creative but it's a good way to get one on one time with him.

If the lady ask the man out.. then its ok..  but if he is a gentleman.. he should offer to pay.. the lady can then choose to accept or not...

It is perfectly acceptable to ask your sponsor about any unique customs.  In general, good table manners, respectful conversation and dress are appropriate.  The specifics largely depend on the type of dinner you will attend.  If it is a small, private affair, then one acts as one might at any dinner party.  If it is a public feast then there may be additional considerations according to the traditions of the institution.\n\nI recommend reading De Brett's Guide to Modern Etiquette for a detailed discussion of dinner-related manners.  It is the de facto standard for British gentlemen.

If you're his friend then I don't see a problem with showing interest in what he does.\n\nBut if it's more then friendly interest you have some soulsearching to do.

welcome to a mans world with the fear of rejection.  If you don't do anything now, you might pass up a great thing.  You never know until you do something about it.  Ask him if he wants to do dinner sometime.

There's no harm in you asking a guy friend to go with you. If he's just a friend , that's fine...no pressure. You go as friends , have a great time, and who knows, when the night is over, you might end up being more than "just friends".....right now, a guy friend just popped into your mind....YES! He's the one! Call him...... invite him, Have a wonderful time at the dance, you and him. Good Luck!
