I've had a long standing attraction to one of my very close friends. We've known each other since we started school about three years ago.

 

I remember her once telling me she had a crush on me Freshman year, but didn't act upon it for worry that it would ruin the friendship. I'm guessing this means she finds me attractive?? I wonder if she still thinks that way.

 

Been trying to find the courage to just ask her out on a date, but I'm not sure of the proper etiquette with these types of situations, because I know how sensitive they are.

 

She's extremely shy and introverted, so physical indications of her liking me are out of the question. Although, we have been known to flirt through text sometimes ( intellectual conversations and the like.)

 

Should I just be like " Hey, I'd really like to take you out next week."?

 

Would I be seriously messing everything up?

I'm in the same bind man. The way to do it is simple, and we know it, but actually doing it is the hard part. With a friend, you have a lot more to lose then just some random girl you met in a bar or something.

 

You've gotta be honest. Make sure she knows you want to date, because she's not going to think anything different if you just ask her to go do something or hang out. Tell her what you like about her. Let her know that you think she's special and you really want to see if anything more works between you.
