No need to be aggressive about it. Just to the point. And just be honest. You like her, you would like to know if she would ever be interested, but if not that's completely cool blah blah blah.

Okay, I'm going to come right out and say this for your sake, as a fellow guy:

I HAVE RUINED FAR TOO MANY CRUSHES MYSELF DOING THE SAME BULLSHIT YOU ARE DOING RIGHT NOW. SHE ISN'T GOING TO BE ABLE TO "TELL." SHE WON'T. NO MATTER HOW "OBVIOUS" PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK IT IS. JUST ASK HER. ASK HER IF SHE'D BE INTERESTED IN "HANGING OUT SOME TIME." DO NOT PUT IT OFF. IT WILL NOT LAST. SHE WILL BE TAKEN BY SOMEONE WITH MORE INITIATIVE THAN YOU. DO NOT ASK FOR "A DATE." OR "GIRLFRIEND." JUST ASK IF SHE WOULD ENJOY HANGING OUT SOME TIME. YOU IDIOT. STOP YES-MANNING US, MAN THE HELL UP, AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR YOURSELF.

I apologize if that sounds harsh, but reading your responses to people here is enraging to me.

My only goal in life is to ensure that Mousa dies of a stress-induced heart attack by the age of 23. READ THIS

[up][up]Her friend figured it out when I liked her and I've already implied stuff pretty blatantly anyways.

Okay, cool, you've implied it, well people are dense, son.

If you don't just take the initiative, you may never find out, sailor.

No. She isn't going to figure it out. And even if she does, it's going to be awkward, and she isn't going to want to make the first move.

Are you an Alpha Male?

ARE YOU AN ALPHA MALE?

If you aren't, then you need to make yourself one.

What is the worst that could happen if you text her right now and ask if she'd be interested in hanging out sometime? Seriously. Tell me what the worst that could happen would be. The ABSOLUTE worst. Reply to me.

It's exactly what I told myself. I was fucking tired of seeing girls that I liked being picked up by other guys. So I took some initiative and asked you to go to the prom with me, AHR. And you said no. So I asked you to hang out with me. You said maybe, and never got back to me. So I asked again, and kept bothering you about it, and here we are today.

Just fucking text her.

Well, it's a bit more complicated than that. I said "I'm not allowed to date, have to ask my parents," which I did, and THEN I said no, when they said no.

And it was homecoming, not prom.

Which means you're not going to do it. You're saying that so we'll stop bothering you. Just ask her now. And you still didn't answer me. What. Is. The. Worst. That. Could. Happen?

I have no faith in the idea that you will do it until you tell me that it is done. It's not a big deal. Just a simple "We should hang out some time." That's all. That's all you have to send to her. Just a key click, and you're done. Think how big of a weight would be lifted off of your shoulders. And you wouldn't need to worry anymore.

Hanging out can still be interpreted in a platonic fashion. Flirting is supposed to be pretty clear(I'm not talking about being a sleazeball), as long as you don't do what a Dogged Nice Guy assumes to be flirting(overuse of gifts, constantly doing favours for her, the like).

I know what you said, sugar, but 'platonic' still entails a world of ideas.

I will. I wanted to do it later, but you had a point: I might have gotten discouraged picking up some bullshit sign that doesn't mean anything.
