Hello,

 

I need a quick word of advice... basically take the plunge or mind her space.

 

Long story short. There's a girl acquaintance I began to know and I started to admire about 8 months ago. Stalled close to a month (reasons beyond the scope of this), asked to hang out but was too late, she turned me down as she was 'seeing someone.' Haven't been in touch until recently, about a month ago, when I saw her around school. She was awkward and standoffish. I felt kinda bad and sent a F/B message. That didn't go anywhere... But she knows I kinda like her from before.

 

I see her around from time to time. Figured she had no interest. So I just walked past, head down, giving her space. Over the past couple weeks, I've caught her in a dead stare. Last week I turned and looked right at her for a full five seconds, she didn't look away. I'm thinking I should have walked right up to her, but I nodded and continued on.

 

School is over in the next couple days. I graduate, and may never see her again. I know she's not seeing anyone. I'm not sure if the writing was on the wall, or if I'm just beating around the bush and she wasn't responding to it. Should I just take the chance and make a formal approach with the confidence to ask her to a casual coffee?

 

(This should fall in between friendship and dating. I have a disability and I'd like a chance for her to see me as a friend first... if there is such a thing)

 

Thanks

You've got nothing to lose by walking up to her. At the very least you remove all that "what if" thought from your head.

 

So yes, ask her out. If she says no you're just in the same place you are now so no worries.
