How to ask a guy to hang out over facebook?

So we are both in college, I knew him a little bit through high school and I don't come into regular contact with him so this is the only way. I just need some help with the wording:

Hey, I know this is sort of out of the blue but - I always thought you were really cute and wanted to know if you wanted to hang out sometime.

Do you think thats okay?

Cheers

Update:

Heres they thing -- I DONT want to get to know someone over the internet, I'd rather ask him out online versus getting to know him online first. I forgot to mention he seemed VERY interested in me before. Thoughts?

    Start talking to him a bit more, soon enough he will be the one asking you to hang out

    It seems harmless but my advice is DON'T DO IT OVER FB! Trust me, I've done it before. Especailly if you don't see this guy everyday it would be creepy and stalkerish (if that's a word). If you see him around tell it to his face don't hide behind technology because it shows your lack of confidence. He needs to see your expressions and you need to see his sincereness during conversation.

    Besides, he needs to know that you are interested but not falling all over yourself for him. Make it a chance encounter. Ex: You see him around ask him " you seem like a interesting person that I'd like to get to know more about. We should hang out sometimes."- and no more. You've just established your interest in him WITHOUT making you seem desperate. If he is interested, he will agree and you guys can negotiate a time to get together. DON'T tell him "I think you are cute and we should hang out." It's equvilant to a guy saying "Damn girl you got body. We should get to know each other." Letting him know you are pshyically attracted to him should come later.

    Also if you do and he don't respond you will be crushed.

    I think asking someone out over Facebook is a bad idea. And exactly how are you two going to be dating if you barely see eachother? But if you want to get to know him more before you go and ask him for the commitment of being in a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship, I think your wording is good. Best of Luck.

    Face book is the worst possible way I ask someone out u need to talk to him in person not over the Internet and then u will get a more positive answer

    I would say more along the lines of a little more casual...like this..

    Hey, I was wondering if maybe you wanted to get some drinks with me next weekend, let me know.

    That way it's not so desperate...ya know? Like, you're just being casual and breezy. A man likes a chase. so give him one..
