Not sure what to do?

[Nameless]

Basically I'm not too sure what to do. :what:

I've been talking to this girl at school for the past couple of weeks and usually when I get somewhat close friends with a girl begin to text each other but with this girl it's different. We talk often at school, smile at each other in the corridor, get the train home together and I've really started to like her.
I'm just not so sure if she's interested in me, I asked to meet up with her one weekend, she said she wanted to but then the day before she said she couldn't due to some family coming round.

I know we haven't been talking very long but just from the conversations we've had it seems like we have so much in common and I really think we have something but I don't know what I should do from here.
I've tried asking to meet up but that didn't happen, I'm not sure if I should ask again or that might seem too desperate and should I tell her how I feel? Or would she find it weird?

Any replies are greatly appreciated :)

Maybe you should tell her how you feel. Just say you like her and that you'd like to get to know her more. She shouldn't find it weird but she might be a little suprised, the more honest you are the better your friendship/relationship -whichever one it ends up as- will be.

^^ agreed, expressing how you truly feel is probably the only way to really get through this. As much as they seem to be, the majority of women arent psychic, so the only way to get thorugh is to kind of spell it out yourself. I'd make sure there's an escape route back to friendship, if she doesnt like the idea then you could say you're happy being just friends (however if you're not then dont say this :D)

Thanks for the replies :) more responses are welcome.
As for telling her how I feel, should I let her know in person or would a text be sufficient?

In person would definitly go down better and showed her you actually cared rather than a lousy text. I know it's easier via text or facebook or something but would you really want to start off a relationship like that?
Maybe when you're on the train back from school one day might be an idea?
