Asking Someone Out on a Date in Spanish

 

This conversation is about Roberto asking Paula out on a date. He and his friend go to her apartment building where Paula is talking to Mariana. Paula and Mariana are neighbors and friends.

 

¡Hola Paula!

(Hi Paula!)

¡Hola muchachos! ¿Qué hacen por aqui?

Mariana says, (Hi boys, what brings you this way?)

Hola Paula, te traje estas flores.

(Hi Paula, I brought you flowers.)

Roberto, ¡qué sorpresa! Viniste nuevamente...

(Roberto, what a surprise, you came by again...)

Por supuesto. Yo no podía dejar de verte.

(Of course. I could not stop seeing you.)

¡Ay, estoy tan contenta de verte!

(I am so happy to see you!)

Vine a invitarte al cine. Están estrenando una película, y me encantaría que vayamos juntos.

(I came to invite you to the cinema. They are premiering a new movie, and I would love to go with you.) Literally it says, "it would enchant me that we go together."

Encantada, ya estoy de salida. ¡Mariana, ya me voy! Hasta mañana.

(Wonderful, I am already on my way out. Mariana, I'm leaving! See you tomorrow.) Literally it says, "Enchanted, I am already..."

Hasta mañana, Paula.

(See you tomorrow, Paula.)

 

Another possible ending could be...

 

¡No gracias! Tal vez otro día.

(No thanks! Maybe another day.)
