WHat would you say/do (Girls and Boys respectively)

SO there is this girl that's been having a fairly hard time with a guy. I saw something she posted today and thought about this.

Maybe I should ask her on a date? Not even a date, honestly, but just ask her if she wanted to hang out, have someone to talk to. SHe's obviously got friends for that, but I was thinking maybe she would like to have a guy who cared.

I don't particularly like her, a least not in a romantic way, and she's not even my type, but I was sorta just feeling like doing something nice for her I guess. We (sorta) used to be friends when we were little, but haven't talked in years, and neither of us are the same people.

WHat would you say if you were asked something like this and you were in that situation (Girls)? Would you do this (guys)?

Me personally, I'm not one to quickly assume this gesture of yours is a romantic thing. It would be quite an honour to know that someone I'm not even that close to currently would do this for me; and who knows, it might rebuild that friendship :)

Does anyone have any idea on what I could say?
How does this sound?
Hey, I was wondering if you'd want to do something this weekend. Not as a date really, but just for if you wanted to talk to someone I guess. I don't really want to make a big deal out of this, but just wanted to know if there was anything I could do to help I guess?

Just say you would like to do something nice for someone and could use the "date" aswell, say it in a way you would want someone to tell you about this.

it would depend how much I trust people and right now I have a trust issue with meeting new people especially if you're a guy

As long as you're clear that it's not romantic, I don't see a problem with it. It wouldn't be right to lead her on, but being there for her would be fine.
