Hey guys,

 

I'm not 100% sure this is the right place to post, if it isn't I apologies but maybe some of you could give me your tow cents? :)

 

College started up last week, after one of my first classes I was leaving and I saw one of the girls leaving and I asked her if she knew where a class room was, as I had no idea. She was quite friendly and checked her phone, she told me where she thought it was and we headed there, seeing as she needed to go that way anyway (she had finished and was heading home)

Long story short, it wasn’t and we kind just looked around campus, I lightly insisted that she needed go out of her way as it was, well, out of her way. In the end, we found the building and she literally went up the stairs and walked me to the door, which wasn't necessary at all but still nice. It was really sweet of her, I thanked her for coming with me and she said “Well, I guess, I will see you… Next time.” I agreed and asked her name and she said it was nice to meet me, all friendly stuff.

 

Is she just super nice or was that a sign of interest, maybe? Should might have just wanted to know where that set of classrooms were? she did say when we were walking that she was curious and wnated to find it... We didn’t talk during class but I'm sure she would have noticed me as I'm an animated person, but still… I'd like it to be a sign of course! She is a very nice girl But doesnt mean that it is and this stuff usually flies right over my head anyway, so if any of you could give me your two cents? Id really appreciate it :D

Both explanations are possible, but there is only one way to find out.

Asking somebody out is not necessarily awkward, in fact being asked out directly and nicely, may be seen as a compliment, and you get bonus points for having the testicular fortitude to approach them. In my experience few are truly interested, but you end up with invitations to parties, being set up with friends, or even tutoring jobs. And yes, sometimes you will have a success.

 

But get out of your mind that simply asking somebody for her phone number or a date is a crime. It's only awkward if you make it that way.

Most people would have helped you, so you can't automatically assume it's a sign of being interested, but who cares? You are interested, so next time you see her, ask if you can get her number so you can text her. Then text her and ask her to something on campus.

All very good points, thanks for all your input :) I have not had the best of luck before with asking even semi directly, the only relationships I've been in I have literally stumbled into them. I asked one classmate last year to hang out for lunch, pretty informally n all and she completely retracted... it was odd, all I asked was if she wanted to grab lunch sometime haha, we talked afterwards but she clearly didn't want to be "friends" after that. But still; shot my confidence a bit as id like to be friends with this current girl if she isnt interested, she's a good person and I like that in friends too.

Thanks for you response and you are quite right! I assumed she was just very helpful at the time but it was just completely out of her way, like didn't point me in the direction or lead me to the general area... I dunno, maybe I don't meet enough nice people and my standards are really low haha.

I just had an odd feeling in the back of my head as we parted, but when it comes to this kinda thing ignore those sensations, its not very reliable in me :\

She seems lovely and the type of girl you would want to have a relationship with. Its very rare in this day and age for people to go out of their way like that. Maybe she would do the same for anyone, but who cares, just ask her out anyway :)
