There’s this girl on my bus that I like.
I don’t know if she likes me. Were freinds, great freinds. I want to ask her out, but I don’t know if I should. I think about going out with her, and it’s great. But If she says no, and it gets awkward, it’s horrible not seeing her everyday. What should I do?

Have you ever jumped off the high-dive? It looks a lot worse when you are up there because from your perspective, you see all the way down to the bottom of the pool, and completely miss the water to catch you halfway down. Your situation is kinda like this - your fear is based off of a poor perspective. Be confident and say hi, compliment her, and ask her if she’d like to spend some time together. There is nothing to be afraid of.
JUST DO IT!!!! If she says yes, awesome, if she says no, it might be awkward for a while. you’ll get over it. Either way its better than wondering “what if” forever.
Ok, that’s the exact reaction I would have when I was the age of riding on busses. What’s your fear?
Just tell her! You will not know unless you ask! I’ll ask her for you! Do you want me to?
That she’ll start avoiding me.
And, I think that a complete stranger going up to this girl for me is kinda, creepy.

That’s the whole point! I will tell her: either you go out with me, a total stranger whom you have never seen in your entire life or go out with griffonlord whom you see on a daily basis on this bus. Whom do you think she will choose?
Ok; “that she’ll start avoiding me” is a valid fear. I think it’s rather unlikely, but you can never tell. Here’s the thing: If you do nothing, you will regret it; if you do something and it doesn’t work out, sure, it will be weird, but that’s life. Don’t let fear get in your way. Regret is the worst thing, trust me, I’m 26 and am saddled with about 16 years of regret about these things.

But then again, too few to mention.”

You are young? right? Take the chance, and learn from it. This is your opportunity. There will be many, many more opportunities - but you need to learn early. Also, chances are good that it will turn out well.
I wish I had someone to give me that advice when I was young… but the internet wasn’t around back then.
Tell her a poem:
Roses are red
violets are blue
I want to go to the movies
and sit next to you!
littlenick is being a little silly, but his/her message is on the spot: don’t take things so seriously.
Buy two tickets to a romantic movie and ask her if she wants to go with you!
What exactly are you going to ask her?
Definitely, ask her out! I bet you 10 to 1 that she says yes. And, that she is as anxious about you asking her out as you are about asking her out! She’s giddy all over!
Ummm…
Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to go to a movie or something sometime?
Ok, that’s a good start. Here’s a few pointers: Be direct with your question, don’t leave it open-ended with “or something sometime”. Put a distinct event into her mind that sounds good, like “Would you like to go to Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist, on Saturday?” This is better than a vague question, and puts a good picture into her mind.
Ok..
Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to see Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist with me this Saturday?
Young love brings a tear of joy to my eyes! *Sniff, Sniff* Ah, to be young again!
Okay, and older guy who wants to ask out a teenage girl. Very creeped out at this point.
K, now do I ask in public in school, surrounded by people, or privately, over the phone?
ask her out……….
Just take the chance to ask her out if you like her that much then it is worth a try and if she is your best friend like you say she is then she wont say no and if she does life goes on get over it and move on to another girl = ]
Oh and to that phone or public?
ohh sorry, I was distracted by my roommates
I say phone because if you get slammed then no body will ever know
do it in person, definitely. Not over the phone. Be direct, and confident.
No, not phone. Trust me… this isn’t a risk management game. You put your full game forward in every instance, and be rewarded for it. If you lose, pick yourself up and learn from it.
Ok thanks later
But if smarty here want you to do so in public be my guest = ]
Because when you get slammed in front of everyone then you cant say that i didnt tell you so

Is nuejersey a boy or girl
boy
HAHA SWEET BOY = ]
GIRL
K, so the guy says in person, the girl says phone. This is confusing.
iugfde, how old?
