Your thoughts/ ion the situation

[TOLGA]

Warning: Great Wall of Text

 

Well today was my last day of high school so i decided to ask the girl who i have liked for many years our with me. Somethings you should know first:

We are kind of friends, in that we occasionally sit during lunch breaks and talk. She usually laughs when i make jokes, Which is a good sign. However this is one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen, and due to this, she attracts plenty of male attention. Now these other guys are more confident, and it seems, more flirty than me It also appears they have some attraction towards her, which is frustrating because whether she realizes or not there is some mutual flirting. They also seem to make her laugh and smile.

So today i decided to take a risk and ask her out. I didn't want to blurt it straight out, so we made small talk. Eventually i pulled her aside and told her that I'd like to see her again (this followed earlier conversations about not seeing each once school finished).

Anyway, at the time i was extremely nervous and said, 'perhaps we could go on a date once our final exams were over. Maybe go to the cinema's and watch a movie'. She responded positively and agreed, we exchanged phone numbers and went back to the last day celebrations.

My main concern is that she may not have understood my intentions behind what I said. I did say the word 'date', however afterwards it felt so much more like "lets catch up as FRIENDS".

Could someone please give me some advice on how to proceed. I honestly feel it may be awkward if she thought i meant as friends, though that is how i believe she may have interpreted it. Any advice or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

No, I think it was very clear. You did mention date, so she knows it's a date.

You mentioned the word 'date', it's just the two of you and it's a movie. Very clear that it's a date.

And if, by some small chance, she DID misinterpret your use of the word "date", then just make sure during the date that she knows you are interested in her romantically.

 

I don't think you should feel awkward now at all; if anything, you should be pleased that she agreed she would like to see you when school is over and that she gave you her number.
