Don't know how to ask
Beagle,
If you sense a woman is interested in you, and you don't ask her out, you are rejecting her. If what you are afraid of is your own rejection you are not thinking abou how this is for her. I am certain you are not looking at it that way, but I assure you she is! Unless you are planning on jumping her bones immediately, what is there for her to be offended by??
Its flattering to have someone ask you out. Flatter her!
Have empathy for her, focus on her, not on what you are feeling. Help her to feel comfortable by assuring her that she is interesting to you. When you ask her out you are not taking anything from her, you are GIVING to her.
Asking her out is not asking for sex. It is, after a certain age, certainly after 30 something we expect to eventually come from a romantic involvement. Its implied... but doesn't have to be addressed for a while. Just flatter her by asking her out. Stop focusing on yourself. That should help!
