Ok there is this girl in my grade who recently broke up with her boyfriend. I have had a crush on her for a while. I have also been pretty good friends with her for a while. I have a very strong feeling she likes me back. I have been trying to start to talk to her a lot more through texting and im but that has not been going well because the conversations never seem to carry and last long. I really like her and just want to ask her out even though we haven't really been "talking". What should I do?

Dear Mandy agony auntHi

I would give her some space for a while, as she is still getting over her break up. Not to say dont let her know how you feel about her, but just give her time to get over one relationship before starting anoter. And if indeed she feels the same about you, then when she is ready I cant see why you wouldn't have a great relationship with her :)

I hope this has helped

For starters, she may not be ready to "get out again". She did just brake up with someone. You have to give her time. It's hard for someone to get out there after a brake up because they don't want to seem as a person who moves on quickly or maybe they are really going through something because they really cared about that person. I say don't rush her.

When you talk to her, try talking about things that you find funny. Try to get her to write "lol". Ask her about her day and ask questions but not too many, you don't want to make it sound like an interrogation.

Also, since you two have been friends for a while it can be a good thing and a bad thing. You don't want to come off as friend. If you play the role of a good friend to her she might take it as you not liking her. Be a good friend but have your boundaries, You have to make it clear that you are interested. Like compliment her once in a while. Don't be too sweet though lol.

Good luck :)
