Get rid of 1000.  That kind of mistake is going to cost you.

Instead of waiting for her to give you an opportunity to ask her out, make one. 

Instead of asking her on a date, which in my opinion you should NEVER do until she's already your steady girlfriend, I do something like this:

"I'm going to see a movie tonight.  You're welcome to join me if you like.  Since I invited, I'll cover it."

Now it doesn't have to be a movie, that's just to demonstrate what I'm talking about.  What I did here was that I CASUALLY made a statement of fact: I am going to do X tonight.  Then I CASUALLY welcome her to join me if she likes.  Then (if there is a question of who pays for it) I must decide if I want her to know I am paying or say nothing.  In most cases, I will say nothing if the activity is free or low cost, or make it known that since I am inviting, it is reasonable that I am paying.  This kills any hesitation she may have about going because of cost, and also puts to bed the debate about who pays, when, why, yada yada because I am simply being polite by paying as a common courtesy since I invited her.  So even hardcore feminists shouldn't have an issue with it.

I had to say
There are some jewels in this post!
It reminds me of a book I read which says that's the way to do things it does put less pressure on the girl and on you
Even though I know it I don't always do things this way myself so that's a very good reminder 
I've met some women myself on AM and I was too serious instead of casual
And now I've met more women so I can try to implement exactly that
