I'm just unsure to ask her, I know a "no" isnt the end of the world but I have gotten so many "no's" that I am loosing faith. So anyway we talk quite a bit during school, and we are going to prom together. She thought it was sweet that I asked her. Now I know something new about her see I am 17 an she is 18 (older than me by 2 months) and she went to a club, this guy talked to her (he's a few years older as hes ending uni so likely 21 or more). She says he was a nice guy and she didnt ask for his number or give him hers as he was older. But her friend gave the guy her number. Anyway she ended up texting him and then a week later he decided to text back (she was a bit annoyed at this I know cause I was with her at the time). Well she says she'll text him back in a week cause of that. Now I don't know if I should ask her out now cause of this guy I mean he is older than me and has degrees. Im a high school kid going to university and how do I compete with that? I have no clue if she likes me I personally think the reason she said yes to prom was cause Im the only guy who asked her. So I don't know if I should risk it cause another no for me would be devastating.

 I wouldnt consider this guy competition simply because he may have had a valid reason for not texting her back straight away and the fact that she is trying to get even with him, may just annoy him to think that she is just being childish and not bother. (That is what I would think anyway!)
Playing a game of tit for tat just isnt mature in the adult world, and therefore may be perceived as childish.
Besides if you take her to prom, so long as you make her feel like a princess and really see that she has a good time, then why would she want to see this older guy.
You have to remember that at her age, she just wants to have a good time, and be treated well. Just because he is older has nothing to do with it!
Take her out, treat her well and if all goes well and its meant to be, perhaps you could be more than just friends.
