Advice on asking a girl out on a date.

Since you said you've met her in a bar and you're already having a good connection, tell her you had a great time talking with her and would love to do it again.

If she said she likes coffee, something like going to a cool coffee place you knew in town. If she likes art, then a new exhibition. Even if she already knows it and like it too, but then it means you have more connection with her.

Never corner her into saying yes, which is why texting is better than calling (unless she loves chatting over the phone). Also, if you're the one suggesting a place, think about places she could have an exit plan and people around, like a cafe, a bar that she trusts, or museums.

And compliments or give gifts based on that. People are saying flowers can't be wrong, but something specific that shows you're paying attention to what she likes could tip the scale to your favor.

And interact openly. I find this much better than stalking, and you can find out more about what she is like. Also, it's a good low key interaction to see if she's into you as well (if she follows back / interacting with you)

Don't be someone else, cause if she falls for it, she'll be in love with another person who you pretend to be.

Let's all be a decent human being here. Nobody is perfect, but good manners goes a long way.

The worst is only that she says no, and that could very well be not because of you. But if you don't do it, you would always wonder on what if...
