How about this? "May I accompany you home?" or "It's my pleasure to accompany you home."

This is incorrect. However, if you do not have other words for choice, just
speak it. Do not hesitate to say something just because you are not certain
with your English. Before white girls, you need to be straightforward and
even a little boldfaced.

Any way, it is already a great step to have a Canadian girl have dinner with you. Do not be shy. Go ahead and good luck.

If the white girl does like you, she does not care your imperfect English. Message 83308 is correct. If you can not think out right then, you can say, "Would you mind my walking (forget bus) with you back till you get home?" Ackward but works.

I agree with you. But I gotta improve my English anyway cos' if she doesn't care 'bout the language then what she cares must be some sorts of feelings, but as you know, that kind of feeling usually won't last long.

Do not expect a wife at this time. Just have a friend and then go and see.

Yeah, I'm not thinking about the marriage thing, I'm not even sure if I will marry a white girl. But it's ok to be friend though. : - )

A native girl can help to improve your English and get you emerged in the native
culture. Friend, you are in Canada. The most dangerous thing is limit yourself in the scope of Chinese.

In my humble opinion, I think the best might be "let me see you home". But I do believe your saying "Would you like me walk you home?" is correct, even if you were going to take bus.

"See you home" is a more polished speaking. The problem is most Chinese can not speak English so freely and so optimally. Thinking too much will lose chance.

Native speakers would say: "May I see you home, beauty? (or sugarer?)"

If you are sure it is not offensive, it is OK. But if you are not,
avoid some excessive words, such as "Baby", ..., do not trap yourself into "sexual harassment" in the first time.

right, not good for a good start of a serious relathionship. No man would like his woman follows any other guy who calls her 'beauty' or 'sugar' home, hoho.

If the relationship is settled, it does not matter, of course.In the
internation studental guide of my university, it is said, Canada is a
a very free country in sexual behaviors...

hey egghead, you are talking about the sexual behavior. The guy had dinner with white girl didn't ever kiss her yet. If the "sexual behavior" is his target, he should start this way, talking, joking, hugging, kissing and then ~!@#$%

Sorry for confusion and distraction. What I meant to say is if the
relationship is established, they are free to say and do something.

Hehe,peace guys.The intention of my original post is to learn some tips
from friends here(I did learn alot)so I can be better next time.it's just a casual dinner,It doesn't mean she likes me or not(same for me),everyone likes free meals,right?:-)

Sorry again. Because you put the post on the love board, we are not sure
whether you were just having a casual dinner with her, or dating formally with
her.

It is not difficult to make ordinary Canadian friends, but very hard to make
close ones. On the contrary, you can make some very close Chinese friends in
Canada, but when you enlarge your scope, you will find some very mean Chinese.

If the relationship is not so tight, and you use some sensitive words, she might feel disgusted. Sexual harrassment is a
very sensitive topic in Canada. It is so killing if your English is not good, but it might if you use over-teasing words.

don't worry about your english. as i can see, it's good enough. native people may find your accent interesting and lovely. and as a foreigner,you have the advantage of being exotic. don't strive to sound as native as possible, just be yourself and relax, you'll be fine. sometimes it's easier than you think to become friends and more with white girls. good luck.

There are several ways to say:
1. Let me take you to home.
2. Can I give you a ride? (for first time date)
3. Where are you living? It's a little later, I will call a taxi for you.
4. etc
