Setting up a date.

Which of these is better?

1. "What's your schedule like for the weekend?"
2. "What are you doing on X day at X time?"

I like the second one because it makes you seem less available (which we all know is a good thing) and also makes you come across as more dominant because you're "taking control", so to speak, but it seems to carry a higher risk of her not being able to make it because you're being so specific. The first one is less risky in that aspect, but it might make it seem like you're too available, or perhaps even too eager.

Any thoughts?

How about "Let's do ___________ X day at X time". Offer an engagement, don't request an appointment.

"I'm doing X at Y time on Z date, would you like to join me?"

^^ That's sort of what I've been doing already. Basically, after finding out if a girl is available for a certain time, I don't ASK her if she wants to chill, I tell her that we WILL chill at said time .
