For some reason I find it a bit overbearing when asking a girl out on a date by specifically saying "will you go out on a date with me". I usually ask if she would like to hangout sometime. However that approach didn't work out so well with this last chick. We were in a group setting and I asked if she'd like to hangout sometime and her response was "well we're hanging out now" and went about her business. I went about mine. At the end of the night we all said our goodbyes and went home. Now I took that as her just simply not being interested (which is more than likely the case). However a female friend of mine said she probably was interested but needed a more formal request such as "go out on a date". She said the way I asked comes off as too vague and might indicate I'm just trying to smash. I don't play those types of games. Either she's interested or not and I personally believe asking to hanging out sometime is universally known as "asking you out on a date".
