If I have a gut feeling that she likes me should I trust it?

I'm afraid that my gut feeling will be wrong. But more or less when I trust my gut feeling in exams its usually right (not all the time). I don't know what to do.

It's like what Sheldon said in TBBT about Schrödinger's Cat. You won't know for sure without opening the box! (I don't mean that in a dirty way, lol)

If you don't know what I mean, TBBT is "The Big Bang Theory", Sheldon is a quantum physicist working at CalTech, and his neighbour was deliberating over going out with her crush (another character in the show) and he gave her the Schrödinger's Cat physics thought experiment which states that if you put a cat in a box with an isotope that decays and becomes radioactive at an unknown rate, the cat is both alive and dead as long as the box is closed, since you don't know with any certainty which one it is if you can't see the cat. The only way to tell if the cat is alive or dead if you open the box.

This theory can be extrapolated to a relationship: one cannot tell for sure if it will work out unless they take the leap and see how things go.

I hope you could follow all of that! Best of luck :)

It never hurts to try! I say go for it! And if she doesn't like you, then what do you have to loose?

FYI, us lonely forum traverlers like our dirty laundry, so more details would be appreciated, to satisfy our needs. If your standards are low enough, you could ask her friends if she might be into you, so you have a bit of background knowledge before you go into that exam without reading the material. Good luck!

I'd say go for it. Just be casual, be calm, be confident. She can't do anything worse than say no. If she goes and laughs that you asked her out, which she probably won't, at least you can say you had the balls to go up to someone and ask them out, knowing there's a chance to be turned down.
