Asking in non-needy way?

[keemojung]

My girl invited me to join her trip to the sea with her working friends.

I asked her, can outside people like me join their trip?

She said, they can.

But, few days later, she then told me that maybe I can't join the trip

as there will be some executives of her working company join the trip.

Thus, outside people like me can't join the trip.

Actually, I want to join the trip, not because of her, but because

her friends are really cute.

My question is " How do I ask her whether I can still join the trip without

being looked needy or desperate?"

Thank you for every suggestion.

Never ask for dates. Offer dates. Say "if you play your cards right you might convince me to join you on your trip".

It's not really that I ask her for dates. I just wanna ask her

if I can still join the trip, but How? The main reason is I wanna meet her friends which are cute. Dating with her is like an extra bonus.

So, what's your suggestion, sir?
