ARGHH!

ARRRGH!

It's the only word to describe my situation right now! Trust me, it suits. I'll explain:

There's this girl in my Duke of Edinburgh group, and she's so just... amazing. Great personality, good looking & a sense of humour to match & she's single (shockingly)! The problem is though, that I like this girl and I've got the guts to ask her out, but its the oppurtunities in which I have to do this which get me in a sticky situation.

• This girl is in the Gold group of DoE, whereas I'm in the Silver group (two different rooms FYI);
• She hangs out with another one of her mates 24/7 (I swear) or at least whenever I see her;
• She lives in the town next to me, with virtually no train links or anything;
• She's friends with my sister & that makes it more awkward since I can never get the chance without my sister butting in;
• She goes to my old school, but I'm rarely there.
• As soon as she gets out of DoE, she gets a lift from her parents instantly (giving me no chance, and she's with her mate)

It's all very uhm... awkward really. I have the guts to ask her out, but its just the fact that I can never find a situation where me and her are alone, and I can actually talk to her 1-2-1. It's driving me up the wall really, so I've asked you guys for advice.

What do you think I should do? Giving up is out of the question before anyone says it. I can't see the oppurtunity where I can talk to her... Any tips from someone who may have been in a similar situation?

ask her friend who she hangs around with 24/7 if you can have a few minutes with her. See where that leads you.

Or just talk to her when the friend is there, if you make a good impression on the friend also, she might big you up, if you come up in conversation.

When you next see her and her friend talking go up and ask if you could have a private word with her. And from there it's all you

Good luck

Muniflex, that's the most obvious one and I'm not criticising you for it, but I already knew that. It's just the fact it's ultra awkward, and well... I don't 'do' awkward.

if u rly like her, u just have to 'do' awkward coz obviously, thats the only problem u can get by

[Pyroka]

Mmm... LOL I just got punched in the stomach though. I told my mum about all this, and that I was gonna ask my sister to help. Turns out my mum asked my sister to help, and now she's going to do it LOL.

so now u just sittin bk?

[Pyroka]

No.. Now tonight is going to be more awkward than it would be with the girl.

[benjamin]

why don't you do it over the phone? if you can't manage to get to see her on your own, and you feel that with others it will be too awkward.

[Pyroka]

I don't have her phone numberrr. or MSN.
