<human>: Ok, I'm 21 y/o dude in college. About a month ago, I met this girl from one of my volunteer programs. I didn't think much about it at the start. But as I talked to her during the program, I started to like her more and more. I asked her to dinner one time, and we went out to eat regular food and then just talked. I don't see her very often, but I feel like we talk a lot whenever I have the chance to see her. She's been "busy" for couple weeks. But I feel like her busy schedule is completely legit as she is in lots of clubs, events, etc. When I asked her to dinner last time, she said she had essays due, and her roommate confirmed it on unrelated note. Well... according to urban legend, I'm supposed to "ask her out" before the 3-month window is over, or else go into friend zone. So I plan to "ask her out" on Friday. But the only problem is: I don't really know how this works. What am I supposed to say? What am I supposed to do?

I've asked around my friends but they give useless answers like: man up and just ask her! which didn't really answer my question of "HOW". Yes, I'm balled up and ready to go, but I don't know the "build order" (yes i play starcraft).

Help me out here, reddit! I've seen you give awesome advices before; please don't let me down! Thanks!

Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?
