Dating & flirting
Ask someone out, compliment naturally, navigate a first date.
1Learn the essentials
Asking someone out works best when it's relaxed, specific and easy to say no to.
- Be specific and light: “Would you like to grab dinner on Friday?”
- Compliments on effort/personality land better than on looks early on.
- Reading interest: enthusiasm and follow-up questions are good signs.
2Warm up & speak
Phrase 1 / 6
I've been meaning to ask — are you seeing anyone?
Llevo tiempo queriendo preguntarte: ¿estás con alguien?
💡 'Seeing someone' es más suave y menos definitivo que 'dating someone'.
3Lock it in
Llevo tiempo queriendo preguntarte: ¿estás con alguien?
Say it in English, then check yourself.
4Practise speaking
Ask, and make it easy to refuse
Two weeks of messages with someone you like. Tonight you want to ask them out loud.
You did it if
The invitation named a place and a day, and a no would have cost nothing.
