Nodaisho:
Hello again, Relationship thread. I need advice. I'm planning on asking someone out (no, for those who are keeping score, I still don't get the point of the whole dating/relationship thing, I'm hoping to figure it out as I go along), but I haven't gotten out much, so I don't know what there is to do around here. She probably does, as she socializes more often than I do. Would it be a terrible faux pas to ask her to go out with me, and if she said yes, then decide with her what we would be doing? The benefit, aside from having some idea what to do, would be that I would know that she would be interested in it, since she probably suggested it or something very similar. Of course, for all I know it could be considered completely graceless.

onewheelwizzard:
This conversation is a totally normal and reasonable one to start:

"Hey, I was wondering if you'd like to go out sometime.  I'm not really sure what you're into, though, and I don't want for us to be bored, so I'm open to ideas ... what do you say we do something together [on specific day that you're free]?"

If she is at all interested in you she will probably get around to asking you what kind of stuff you like to do relatively quickly.  My advice is that it is not a terrible thing to admit that you don't get out much but that you'd like to more.

Nodaisho:
Oh, she knows I don't get out much, I was more worried that it might be violating some sort of unwritten law.

onewheelwizzard:
I think you're fine then.  You don't have full responsibility for deciding what the two of you will do.  Nobody's going to get upset or put off at you if you ask them if they want to help decide what to do.

Reed:
But if she offers up a list of suggestions try to choose one on your own. A lot of women are turned off by indecisive men (at least in my experience).
