Forgive my ignorance but I don't see why that's an unreasonable request

Here's how the conversation could go without sounding like an ass:

Him: Cool shirt. Do you like Iron Maiden?

Her: No, I just like this shirt.

Him: That's cool. They're one of my favourite bands. If you wanna hangout sometime I'd love to introduce them to you?

Maybe not the last sentence but can you get the difference in tone?
