He has had a girlfriend before. Anyway, I happen to really like him, but I don't know how to go around asking him out. We're basically strangers and I can't just ask him out spontaneously or confess. He IGNORES girls. My best friend tried saying hi to him once and he just ignored her. I'm too intimidated to ask him out or even confess so I'm trying to be his friend first.I wouldn't even consider asking him out despite my very big crush on him, but I keep thinking of the fact that he asked me to dance with him on prom (his friend had to tell him too), and the fact that I'm the only girl he talks to ... So ... what do I do? Am I just setting myself up for a rejection? :/

If you don't know him enough to talk to him, then you don't like HIM, you are attracted to how he looks.
It's very possible you will be rejected but you won't know if you don't try.
the problem is you may find that if you ask him out and you go out, he may look very interesting but if he's so painfully shy that he won't even talk to girls, he may not be a very interesting person to spend time with...

Possibilities:
1. He could be from an extremely religious family and not be permitted to speak with or respond to females, outside of teachers.
2. He could be so shy that he thinks any woman who approaches him will make fun of him or is not sincere in her interest.
Perhaps you should find out if he has any guy friends and ask them what they know of his feelings about girls.
