Sammy: Yes, but ... I mean ... Are you doing anything tomorrow?

Sammy: Sorry, I know, you're probably busy tomorrow. Meeting someone already.
Julia: Yes. Maybe.
Sammy: Oh, I see. Sorry.
Julia: Yes, maybe I'm meeting someone. If he asks me.
Sammy: Great! Julia, would you like to go somewhere with me tomorrow?

Sammy: OK. Well, what do you like doing? Oh, but not ...
Julia and Sammy: Cycling!

Julia: Do you like music? We could go to the opera.
Sammy: My dad loves opera. He listens to it all the time ...
Julia: Great, so ...
Sammy: But I can't stand it.
Julia: OK. OK. OK, so no opera. Great.
Sammy: What about sports? There's a football match in the afternoon.

Sammy: Museum?

Hi. I am going to old part of town, do you want to join me?

finally, they found a common hobby maybe a beautiful love story that starts

Fancy a cup of coffee?　( *´꒳`*)੭⁾⁾ If you are not busy, would you like to have some drinks tonight?　( ⸝⸝⸝°_°⸝⸝⸝ ) Do you like art museums? I know a great exhibition around here. Would you like to join me on Saturday next weekend? \(//∇//)

I don't understand phrase "Take the lift". Can you explain to me, please? Thanks you.

Hello tranvanthanh141, The phrase 'take the lift' means to choose the lift rather than the stairs in a building. You can 'take the lift' or 'take the stairs'. It's similar to the way we use 'take' with modes of transport: 'take the train', 'take a taxi' etc. ~ Peter The LearnEnglish Team

I ask to out and to meet in a point of the city.

I invited my coworker Luciana to go to the cinema and after that we ate pizza. We talked a lot about ours lives, careers and religion. That day I was so nervous, but at time goes by I was calmer and relaxed. It was a incredible day. Now, we have been married for 5 years. So, It worked! :-)

Yes, I asked her to go to the museum and we went. At the beginning, she seemed to be enjoying but soon I felt that she couldn't stand it for long. (l like history very much.) Once I was looking at a stone inscription and she said "Don't you think that these are boring?" I said " I enjoy trying to read them." Anyway visiting the museum didn't work very well.
