So I met this girl...

...earlier in the year. We did the school play together and we talked a little then. Just recently I've been talking with her more since getting over my breakup. We hung out three times in 3 weeks. I'd say that is a fair amount for someone I randomly started talking to. Im 18 and shes almost 16. I've graduated high school and she's still in there. We text each other often, sometimes kinda slow and other times we have a lot to say to each other. I can somewhat see she's interested in me but at the same time, sometimes, I feel that she isn't. Maybe it's because I've taken too long to make a move. One time I had the chance to make a move, but I just didn't feel ready to, what with my recent breakup and my current point in life. I go to community college and in a year or so I might be transferring away to another college.

 

I dont really know what to do at this point. I feel theres too many factors involved. I can see we have a lot in common about the way we think about life and our interests. But I can also see that being in a relationship at this point in time would get kinda hectic, even though deep down I kinda feel like I want one.

 

What are some alternative things that I can do? What should I bring up in a conversation?

I think the first step is to figure out for yourself if you really want to be in a relationship, considering all the other factors you've mentioned. this is important coz once you decide to make a move, there's no turning back.

 

be sure you have strong feelings for her that's why you want a relationship with her, and not that you feel you kinda want to have a relationship so you're wanting to pursue her, because it just so happened that she's the one you're involved with right now...

i agree with denise. are you sure you are ready to date again? you said several times in your post 'my breakup'. that indicates it's very much still on your mind.

But I dont want to get to the point where its impossible to be in a relationship or close to it because ive waited too long. And I dont want to drop her all together. What to do...
