i wouldnt just go and ask her out, i would tell her how you feel. she will then most likely tell you how she feels. she may get nervous or shy but that is not a sign that she doesnt like you, it could mean either. then, if she says she likes you, go for it, if she says she doesnt like you, tell her that you still want to be friends. if she is silent or shy about it, then just tell her that you understand if she doesnt feel the same way adn that you would like to stay friends, it is the best route to take.

Well if she says no you'll feel bad like most people do in the same situation, and you move on. That's how life is....and that's how it is more than once in a person's lifetime.

Just ask her. No matter if she says yes or no, at least you will know.

You can't really rush a first date, can you? I say do what feels right. Strike up a conversation with her. You'll know in the first few minutes whether you still want to ask her out. Then ask. Your life will be filled with yes's and no's. But you don't get a yes unless you ask. You might be surprised with her positive response. And because it sounds like you plan on asking her out in person and not via a text message or IM, points for you. Good luck.

Take a leap of faith and ask her out if she says no you've lost nothing. suggestion why not ask her and some of her friends to join youand a few of your friends that way the pressure of a one on one first date is off and if it doesn't work out atleast you had a good time with friends

I would no more take that friend's advice than I would cut my own hair with goat shears, LOL. I'm serious. That's just crazy. You like her and you think she likes you. That's enough information right there. THAT is all you need to know. I'm not sure why your friend chose to rain on your parade by playing into your natural fear of rejection, but why doesn't matter, I guess, not at the moment. The truth is >> everyone is this world is afraid of rejection. I'd even go so far as to say it's probably one of the top two, maybe three, fears people carry around. When I read the part about "...and I will feel terrible if she says no." in your question, I wanted to look your friend square in the eye and say, "Well, no shizzle, Sherlock." I'd like to meet the person who WOULDN'T feel bad if the girl he liked turned him down. Think about this for a minute: If you allow - and you always have a choice - fear of rejection to stop you from going after what and/or who you want, you will never get anywhere in your relationships. Try to see that fear for what it is - a natural and expected part of approaching someone you like. It's not a deal-breaker - it's just an emotion, and sometimes it's a pain-in the-abacus emotion, if you catch my drift. Nothing more, nothing less. Like everyone else said, just ask her out. Go on, LOL, Do it. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Good luck!!!!!!!

Ask her!!!! Just noticed you posted this a month or so ago, did you ask?? Hope so Oh, and dont let your 'friend' piss on your bonfire, ever
