Sorry for burdening you with another romantic advice thread, escapists, but think I'm going to need a bit of help with this one.
Well, let's start with some backstory. I'm 20 years old and I've never been in a relationship or even kissed a girl (or a guy for that matter, but that doesn't bother me). Not that I haven't tried, mind you, I just don't seem to be attractive to girls, despite my efforts. This resulted in me being rejected twice by girls I really liked at the time (one of them being a close friend - yes I know). I didn't take this very well, being inexperienced and shy, so I kind of wallowed in this for quite a while.
But now I'm coming out of that, thanks to some parties that I've been invited recently (finally got the backbone to actually dance and get close to a girl for more than 1 second). With this, there's this girl, (who's sweet as caramel and cute to boot), that has always been there in the parties, since all the parties are either faculty sponsored or with my university friends (I'm studying Biology, if you want to know). We've partied together for while, but only recently I've gotten closer to her, up to the point that the last time we partied we danced together all night (I'm sorry if that sounds too much like a dudebro or some kind of horrible pop song). And after that, we shared a cab back home, while holding hands, because her hands were cold and mine were warm (>//<). So I've kind of developed a liiiittle crush on her.
So now, there's another party next friday. She's going, and me too... So my question is maybe a bit weaksauce or what have you, but still:
How can I, umm, proceed? What do you, adventureous escapists, think I should do to make my intentions clear?
Thanks in advance for reading this, and your contributions!
