Does she like me?

[prelude93]

I am 16 and there is a girl in one of my English classes. I would consider us to be friend considering we talk about more than what grades we got etc., but we don't hand around in the same group and i don't know her real well. When she asks questions about class, instead of asking her friend behind her she asks me (there is one row of desk between me and her.) We did a thing in the libary the other day and it wasn't a group activity but she wanted to work with me (this is where i really don't know if she wanted to hang around me because she liked me or because im the smartest kid in the class), and we were always at the same station and if I tried going ahead of her she would say, "Wait for me prelude (not my real name )." But near the end of class one thing she did really caught my attention, she kinda started tapping my leg with her foot (and most girls when the "hit" me with their foot they are usually like, "O sorry.") and then (I don't know if i was just hoping she was doing what i felt or she didn't know she was doing) she started rubbing my leg with her foot. I didn't look at her but i shoulda because it probaly woulda revealed alot. I think she likes me but I'm not 100% sure and don't want it to feel akward in class if I ask and she says no. There is a dance coming around where the girls ask the guys but I don't know if she has a boyfriend or not so i don't know if she ask me to the dance, I don't think she does because today (V-Day) she didnt have a rose or anything. O yea one more thing, in class we have these journals we write in and everday see always takes mine and puts it up for me (our teacher has a little crate thing to put it int, but doesn't bring her friends or my friend who always ask her to put his up. Put what ya can in, and some suggestions of how to ask her out would be nice, im kinda shy but when its time to do something i suck it up and go on with it. I've also never had a girlfriend, just dates to dances. Ok give me your opinion now, and thanks.

Okay, you know what, she likes you. The rubbing legs thing, that's a DEAD GIVEAWAY! But don't get all sexy now, you hear?! Play along with it, talk to her real suave like. Next time she taps your foot or rubs your leg, look at her eyes, and say something like "I think your foot likes me... what do you think?" lol, well, come up with something better.

 

Go on a friendly movie date. Talk about a movie you like with her, or want to see, and ask if she'll go with you. Than you can judge her body language there. Put your hand on the elbowrest, palm up... see if she goes for it. See if she leans towards you while watching the movie.

 

Ofcourse these signs are always easy to see if you're a third party. I never noticed them myself

Wow, I like Mischivo's suggestions. My idea is very much the same. This girl at least is interested in you. I would definitely ask her what she's doing next Friday night and then ask her if she would go to see a movie with you. Mischivo's suggestion is cool. Make it casual:

 

You: "Hey what you're doing Friday Night?"

Her: "No plans yet"

You: "Greeaat!! I have heard about this awesome move, ... would you go with me to see that one?"

 

Get the hang of it? ... Good!! I wish you good luck and a lot of fun!

Thanks for the feedback.

 

Im planing to ask her this week, I don't know what movie yet but I'll figure that out.

 

How do I go about on the date? Should I hold her hand when we walk together or act causal if she was just a friend. I'm going to pay for her movie ticket and snacks (if she wants any), thats just the gentlemen thing to do. Any feedback on about how to go along on the first date would be helpfully, thanks.

Ditto ditto.

 

Though we are living in the 21st century, us guys is still required or expected to make the move most of the time. So take heed.

 

Asking her out for a movie is a great and nifty idea. But my fav choice is to find a nice quiet cafe and chat with her over some frappacino. Getting to know a girl better, arms your mind with the arsenal to court her more effectively in the days to come.

 

Good luck!
