View Full Version : What Should I Do?

Ok, I have a pretty big problem, well not big in the scope of the world, but big for a high schooler. So ever since last year I have really like this girl, but I never actually got the courage to talk to her because one of my friends told me she was going out with someone. I found out later that year she wasn't going out with anyone, but she wasn't in any of my classes and I wasn't on Facebook, so contact with her was tough.

Fast forward to this year, and I was pleased to find out that she was in 6 out of my 8 classes, but once again I could not find the courage to talk to her for the first 3 1/2 months of school.

So once again fast forward to now, or really 3 weeks ago, I told one of my close friends that I liked this girl, and that I needed her help to find out if she was dating anyone at the time, she gladly helped, and I was pleased to find out she wasn't going out with anyone. This was great news, but there was only one problem my friend accidentally told the girl that I like, that I liked her. So, for the past 3 weeks his girl has known that i like her, and wants me to talk to her, but because of my friend telling her that I liked her, I still couldn't find the courage to talk to her.

So, this girl has just recently went on a diving team meet so she wasn't in school for the past few days, and I still hadn't told this girl how I felt, but there was one good thing my friend who told her that I liked her gave me a golden opportunity to finally begin to talk to her, she gave me the girl I like number.

So, for the past 3 nights me and the girl I like have been texting for about 3-4 hours a night, but I still haven't told her how I actually feel about her, because I refuse to tell her via text message. While we were texting I learned so much more about her, and I learned that I have so much more in common with her than I ever could have imagined. I also learned that I care for this girl much more than I ever thought I did.

So, this brings me to the actual questions, and that is how should I tell her that I like her, and when should I ask her out on a date? She is back in school tomorrow, and we have school until Friday, so that gives me 3 days to confess my feelings to her. I have never felt this way about someone before, so I really need your help more than ever.

Now, I know that most of you will say ket this play out, and talk a little here and there, but I have had feelings for this girl for over a year, and if I could just get a date with her over Christmas break it would make me the happiest person in the world, or if I can't get a date I want to be able to at least tell her how I fee before the break.

So, thanks in advance guys I know this was a long read, and appreciate anyone who actually read it and responded, please guys I am really desperate right now. Once again the two questions are "How and when should I tell her that I like her," and "When should I ask her out on a date."

I can tell you're pretty shy but you have to man up and when you two meet in school, you should ask her out, ask her to go on a walk with you or to some café. That is a great opportunity for you to express your feelings for her.
Follow my logic: if she knew you liked her and still wanted you to talk to her, if you have a lot in common and have been spending the last nights texting each other, I doubt she'll refuse a date with you, so don't fear refusal, because I highly doubt that.

Good luck :)

Thanks, and yes I am pretty shy, so this is very hard for me, but like you said I have to man up and just ask her, and hope for the best. Thanks again, I will ask her out to a dinner/lunch on Thursday and just hope for the best.

Thanks again, and I talked to her a little today after physics just to get to know her more before I ask her out, which I will do tomorrow. So if anyone can please help me out her what should I say how should I say it and since I have 3 out of 4 classes with her, should I talk to her a little each class before I actually ask her out, or what? Thanks in advance guys, you are always so helpful.

this what u should do, ask her out at the end of the school day and tell her straight up how u feel bro! If she likes you (most likely she does from what I am hearing from u) Then she will say yes. But be sure to tell her straight up

You should talk to her normally in each class and then ask her out when the classes end for that day. You just walk up to her and tell her: 'Hey, would you like to go out with me?', just something simple, I doubt she'll say no.

Thanks for that and I hope she says yes, but right now I am second guessing wether or not I should do it tomorrow because of my friend telling me to wait until after break, I mean we are friends now, but we really just became friends while she was away so if she says no I do not want to ruin a friendship that just started. So, I am thinking that I get to know her a little more tomorrow and either ask her out on Thursday or wait until our break is over and ask her out. Now I am not sure if I could make it that long so it is looking like the better of the two options is getting to know her a little better tomorrow and then asking her out on Thursday. Please give me your input one more time, thanks in advance guys.

You should do what you think is the best. I see you've already settled for the second option, and I think that one is the better one too.
In the case she says no, your friendship doesn't have to necessarily be ruined, I believe you can still be friends. But frankly, I'm not even considering that option. :)
