Re: How...

"Hey, you seem awesome. Wana go out for coffee/lunch/dinner/movie sometime?"

[wait for answer]

If yes: "Woohoo! I mean, how's this Friday sound?"

If no: "Well, I'm disappointed, but that's cool. *changes subject*"


But to be honest, if you're worried about saving face then that really conflicts with the whole risk inherent in asking someone out. You can minimize the risk of looking like a tool, but you can't make it go away. The best thing you can do to try and save face is to accept rejection graciously and carry on the way you did before.

This means no (public) moping, no conspicuously avoiding them, etc. And I hope this goes without saying, but it definitely means no trying to guilt-trip them or make them feel bad about saying no.
