Just Friends?

[hipster101]

So there is a girl...lets name her....Jessica? and my girlfriend, Brittany (Niether of these names are their actual names, because I know my girlfriend has an account on here somewhere and would possibly kill me for talking about this.)

So, anyway. I started my senior year of highschool, and I have friends in all grades at my school (I try to make the new students feel welcome and show them around because starting at a new school is scary enough). Anyway, my friends and I were like...standing there. And then this girl (I had seen her occasionally since like the morning of that day and at this point it was lunch time) came over and since then, we all have became friends. Trouble is, we're her only friends. Not that we aren't friends with her, but we are her only friends at school. To make a long story short, this girl (jessica) has been takling to me, directing conversation to me, and walks me to class...always hugging me, putting her arm around me for very brief periods of time, and always tries to find me at school. I'm not an idiot. It's obvious she likes me. I'm not stupid. All that aside, there is a dance Thursday. She would go, if she had someoone to go with but since no one really hangsout with her she has no confidence and I know she won't ask someone or go by herself...kinda sad because she's nice. I was thinking about going AS FRIENDS...but would that be leading her on? I don't want to lead her on as I have a girlfriend who I love more than anything (and she KNOWS this, I've stated it multiple times), but I want her to actually feel accepted into this new school and enjoy her first dance here. #cofused

Don't do it. Ask her to come along with you and your gf at the very most. If I were you I wouldn't spend much if any time alone with her, always have your gf around. This will serve a couple purposes. First, she will see you're serious about the gf thing, and second your gf will have no reason to be suspicious of anything going on. Be careful, things like this escalate fast and can get out of control.

As Madison said, make sure your gf is most of the time with you. If you ask Jessica to go with you, make sure she really understands it's only as a friend.
