    And I'm nervous as hell. We don't talk much but well it's my last week this week at my internship and tomorrow is the last day I see her so might as well right?

    I'm thinking of saying: "Hey ***, I know we don't talk much, but I was wondering if you'd like to go catch a movie this weekend." Sounds simple and not too hard right? Now if I can just find some courage.....Anyways advice is appreciated.

    UPDATE: Sorry it took so long guys. I get off work at 4pm and I don't wanna post while at work and I don't get home till now cuz of traffic. Anyways, I talked with her for about 5 minutes, making small talk whatever. Anyways here's how the convo went down:

    ME: So anyways what are you doing this weekend?

    HER: My mom is coming home from Taiwan but other than that probably nothing.

    ME: Well if you're not doing anything would like go out for some boba and go to Barnes and Nobles (she mentioned she likes to go there).

    HER: Looks at me and then squints her eyes, (she always does this when she thinks). Maybe.

    ME: Well I'll give you my number if you change your mind. Got a post-it and gave her my number.

    So anyways yea, she probably threw it away as soon as I left. I'm glad I asked though. It wasn't as hard as I thought and it was definitely good practice. Anyways most of you probably thought this whole thing was a giant fail or whatever but I still would like to thank all of you guys for the advice. At least I tried and didn't wuss out. FLAMMMMMMMMME AWAY!!!!!

    I know you're just using "movie" to indicate your general interest in hanging out with her, but just say coffee instead. When's the last time you got to know somebody by watching a movie together?

    Lol you are so darn cute I swear. I hope that she says yes. Good luck buddy.

    edit: Is there anyway you can do like minigolf or something like that, like an activity? That way you will constantly have something to talk about, whatever it is you are doing. i just think that doing something like minigolf and stuff that isnt just sitting there is a better and easier way to get to know someone with out it being too serious and with the possablity of becoming really uncomfortable.

    Also defender keep out the "I know we don't talk much, but" that is basically saying "I know you don't find me interesting enough for a 10 minute conversation everyday, but i'd like to take you out for 2-3 hours anyway"

    Agree. I don't think you should say, "I know we don't talk much."

    ask her out for a drink and dinner. The drinks will ease the tension if she says yes, also it may sway her toward a yes, if she knows she will be able to put a couple back. If you let her pay for anything, gtfo!

    "Hey ***, I was wondering if you would like to go out and have some drinks, and maybe get some dinner this weekend?"

    We don't talk much because we can't cuz we're always working and I'm always moving around. But yea it's not from lack of trying. I try to make an excuse to go to her area and talk with her.

    Ask her out to Dim Sum. Asian girls love Dim Sum, and its a pretty quick lunch.

    Skip the , "I know we dont talk much" line and just get to the "hey how about going to *******'s for Dim Sum this weekend. My internship is ending soon and I would like to keep in touch with you.....

    It just sounds bad, it's like, "Something negative, but..." There's no reason to bring it up.

    before going straight to asking her out, get some small talk with the girl, tell a joke, say something interesting that mightve happened that day. then see if shes up for getting some food this weekend-movie idea is lame. i dont want to sound like the discouraging OTer but sheesh, dont start off a convo saying what you posted. buck up, show some confidence and conquer that ho. you're killin me with these weak lines to try and get this girl.
