I started my college semester today and had intro to Spanish. The teacher made us go around the room and ask each others names in Spanish. This one pretty girl that I spoke to knew my name surprisingly. (probably overheard or something) Point being I was impressed, nobody else knew my name. On the way out of the building she happened to be behind me. I told her to take care and that I would see her next week. She smiled and wished me the same. Afterwards, coincidentally her car happened to be parked in the same direction as mine. As she was behind me still, I couldn't help but overhear her conversation with her friend about textbooks, so I butted in and told them my thoughts about it. They didn't give me weird looks like some girls would do. In fact it turned into a brief conversation between us.

Never know, unless you ask her out..what's the worst that can happen?

Too soon to say. For now, enjoy getting to know her through classes, and maybe after a few lessons, you can suggest meeting up to do homework together, or to grab a coffee after a class to get to know each other more. Until then, don't obsess and just enjoy the fact that you've met somebody you're interested in!

OP, if this is an interaction different than what you're used to when encountering unknown women, IMO it is worthy of notice and attention. If you're going to make a social invitation, do it sooner rather than later. The chances of her having a boyfriend are high but you're all young and such things are transitory. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I agree, but isn't it a little to soon to ask her out?

I agree, I certainly have that feeling in my gut. Next chance I get I'm going to ask her how she made out with her textbooks. It seems her friend is always with her so I will include both of them in conversation. Then I will simply ask if they want to meet at the table outside of class an hour before classes in the future to go over material.I think inviting her friend will probably make her more at ease.

 

I think it's a good approach. From there I can talk more and see if she has a boyfriend, etc.

This kind of reminds me of an interaction I once had.

 

I was in a new class at school, and the 2 guys behind me were having a conversation about a topic I was super interested in (I forget what it was). I really excitedly turned around and happily said something about that topic.

 

They both look at me like I sprouted a second head, and then one of them glares at me and spits out very harshly "You don't even know my name!"

 

I smile at him, say "Nick", then turn around to go back to my work.

 

They were both kinda surprised, but were nice to me for the rest of that semester.

 

I'd say if a good interaction happened with you two, there's definitely good reason to see where it goes.

Don't ask her on a date. Ask her to hang out. Keep it casual but uncertain what your interest level is. Girls like a little mystery ya know. Just don't play games either. You're feeling things out and getting to know her and letting her get to know you.

 

It's not so much "asking someone out" as it is creating opportunities to get to know one another.

She sounds friendly enough, so just keep talking to her and see if she starts being proactive about being friendly. Then maybe start out inviting her and her friends to a group activity but spend time by her. Or just ask her if she wants to have lunch together or something like that.

Get to know her first before asking her out.

 

 

Otherwise super embarrassing if she has a BF.

 

 

Good luck!

Scope it out a bit first before replying, check for boyfriend etc. Make an effort to chat with her a bit.... If it feels right go for it!

Thanks everyone, I'm going to go with my current plan that I posted earlier. From there I'll have to play by ear.
