So been dating a girl i met through mutual friend since the summer, August to be precise. Both in our 20's and having alot of fun. Pretty much act like best mates, but always have the romantic connection (how it should be). Shes basically a female version of me and visa versa.

 

Shes told my good friend (mutual friend) how much she likes me and cant wait for me to ask her to be my gf. Shes excited for the day i ask and im actually excited too. We're going great

 

I have some ideas on doing the cliche, nice location, dinner and then keeping it real to ask her out with a romantic twist (being creative during the night).

 

Thought i'd listen to some ideas. Shes a very down to earth person, but desires good things in life, so likes the upmarket scene as well as doing the every day/chilled activities. I think some ideas on how to actually ask would be great to hear rather than where to go, but both would be welcomed.

 

Cheers.

It sounds like you already have a good handle on things. I've always had the conversation casually, but good on you for considering it a romantic opportunity! I think anything out of the ordinary will be way more than what most couples do for this particular conversation.

 

If I was in your shoes, I think I'd pick something that both parties find fun. If you share a hobby or interest, maybe try to schedule that before a nice dinner, and bring it up at dinner while laughing and talking about how much fun you had?

 

Good luck!

It's not a proposal, yo. If this is how you are going to ask for her to become official, you're setting an even higher precedent if you eventually decide to propose.

 

A little forward thinking for ya. Specially for an "upscale" kinda girl.

I agree with Diezel, it doesn't need to be an elaborately planned event.

My last boyfriend when he asked me to be officially his girlfriend, he did plan a little night together but it wasn't anything super special. It was romantic though.

 

We just went to dinner and then ended the night at a dark quiet bar. He was just more affectionate that usual, it can be very romantic despite where you are, just as long as you are together.

OP, I like your proposed plan the best. Have a great evening!:)

You're overthinking it. It's just a conversation that you need to have. It can come up whenever you want it to. At then end of the conversation, you're either on the same page, or you're not.

Thanks people. I had an idea of what when and where I was gona ask. Just at dinner and drinks. Nothing over the top. Not overthinking but just wanted to hear other views.

 

We already more affectionate recently so we're pretty much there. I know she just want the confirmation. Next week dinner/drinks it is.

Whatever you choose as your date idea, ask towards the end of the date. If the answer isn't what you want, it will be awkward to have to sit through the rest of the date.
