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.

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.

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!

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.

Okay, and older guy who wants to ask out a teenage girl. Very creeped out at this point.

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 = ]

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.
