Hi, there's this great girl at my school. I don't really know her, it would be presumptous to assume she knows my name. I have some friends that know her though. My question is, would it be wiser to be just a little forward and casually ask her out? or try to work my way into conversations, get to know her better, etc., before asking her out? As a side note, i do have one friend in particular that is putting pressure on me to act quickly, so i'm leaning toward just asking her out. Thanx
