Only problem is I don't have any classes with her or really know her, her identical twin sister was in one of my classes a few semesters back but that's the closest thing we have to a "connection". The only time I see her is walking back and forth between classes... We've only interacted once which was just a couple days ago, I held a door open for her as she was heading out of the student center. She thanked me, I said "You're welcome" then told her she was very cute. She thanked me again and that was the end of that. I'm going to try finding her on Monday but I'm not really sure what I should say to her to start a conversation - especially since she'll probably recognize me from the other day. Advice as to how I should start a conversation with her? Reply to this Question

 A bit of sage advice from an old guy who's "been there"...
Next time you hold the door for this Angel.... and she sez "Thank you".... YOU SAY, "You're welcome, beautiful lady.... and, by the way, do you have any plans for the next 35-or-so years?"
That should get the ball rolling....
Good luck....

We never really talked but we knew each other's names. I was thinking of just asking her something like "Oh, do you know where the security office is?" (something in the student center so I can walk with her as she goes there) She'd answer and I'd be all "Hey! I remember who you are! You were in one of my classes a few semesters back." I have people I don't know come up to me and tell me that once in a while, I suppose that's normal. Then once we really introduce ourselves I thought maybe I'd just ask her to lunch or something. I recall overhearing her sister say one time that they get mistaken for each other all the time, so I don't think she'd be too discouraged about that.

You can always try the "oops" method by waving her down by her sister's name... that could be a way to start a convo... I guess it depends on how she reacts to being called her sister. Although I guess if you're interested in a relationship, it might be detrimental for her to think that you originally wanted to talk with her sister
