So, there’s this girl I’ve been interested in for a couple of weeks now. We met about two months ago, as we both commute to school around the same time; it also helps that we have a mutual friend. After a bit of talking I really came to like her personality (and, to be blunt, her looks). I’m not 100% sure if she feels the same, but she at least seems comfortable and happy with our friendship, which is a step in the right direction.
I have a couple of issues. For one, I become really shy around girls, especially those I like (not to the point where I can’t talk to her, but asking her on a date might take some courage).
Also, I feel like it would make the commutes awkward. Because she’s pretty attractive, she has as much guy friends as girl friends, and possibly due to the shyness I’m slightly intimidated by it.
So I guess what I’m asking is, how – if possible – can I turn this into something more? Is there any subtle way for me to tell if she likes me back? I don’t really consider myself an expert on dating, I just want to know how the best way to approach this situation is.
(As a sidenote, I asked her out for coffee on Sunday – she said she couldn’t because she had work to do, but she did hint that she still wanted to do so sometime soon.)
Thank you in advance!
