Girl problem

[Kelsey_90]

So there is this girl in my grade that i really like, (we are in 11th grade) but we are friends already. I have tryed asking her if she liked me. not in person by the way. but she ignored it or didn't reply. so i was thinking that it ment no she didn't like me. So when a friend asked me how things were going with us i said i didn't know because i had shyed away from her since i was imberised that she found out i liked her and she might not like me. Well this friend i was talking to about her started going off on things...and soon he was getting all mad and saying no she does NOT like you like that!!! and how he was wording everything was prety much a slap to the face. This was all on msn might i add...but i got so ****** off at him and this girl i liked because of what he was saying i soon exited the conversation and loged off right away. The next day diffrent friend started asking me what happend with ben(guy i was talking to before) and me yesterday. so i explained everything and i find out from him that ben only said this cause he still really liked me (even tho we only went out for 8 days...man i wish he would get a grip). anyways this other friend said that she was just confused and didn't know what to say to me. sorry for having so many ppl in here but im just adding one more friend. anyways in class i was talking to this other person and he said that she liked me only didn't want to go out with me cause it might ruin ppls friend ships....ummm ok....and then he kept telling me to stop being a pansy and just talk to her about it.
finaly i got the courage to ask her today.and i told her that i have gotten a whole bunch of diffrent answers so i need her to answer.... and i really really like this girl...and yay! i found out that she likes me too. only that she doesn't really like going out with friends because then she feels shes always stuck in this awkward friend/dating typ of stage. so now im really scared to ask her out cause if she says yes then im scared we will get stuck in that stage. and if i don't ask i will never kno and i will go on likeing her and all that backedge you know that drags on when that happens. but then if she says no it might make things worse....and im so frustrated cause i really really like her. ughh i really don't know and i really need some advice on what to do!!

oh man sorry this got so long hope ppl actually get through the whole thing.

Wow...heh. lol Well, I think it doesn't hurt to ask. :) You never know 'till you try right? She likes you, so you got your foot in. Even if she doesn't say yes right away, at least she'll know how you feel...she could change her mind later. Good luck and welcome to the ATLF. :)
