I know that there are a lot of nice girls out there, and I am aware that there are girls who may well be reading this, but I don't know any of them personally. That being said, it must be noted that nice is a relative word, and that when I say nice, I mean someone who is NOT going to slap you in the face for asking her if she wants to go out, or laugh at you for having trouble learning her name by the end of the second week of school. Now, considering that my relationships include a girl who used to be in several classes with me during the same hours, a girl who is in a couple of my electives during the same hour, and a girl whose older brother dated my older sister, tell me how can you safely ask one of them out without risking shame for the rest of your life? The first one I just totally gave up on, which was just as well, because she didn't think much of me. The second one would be akward because these two jerks kept trying to set us up during one hour, which makes it look like I'm trying to be cool by their standards, which I am not, and she tends to ignore me some of the time. The third one is the true disaster. We're friends now, kinda. I tried to ask her out to a formal, but she said no. One of my best friends and I went to the dance anyway, to see if we could pick up dates there. We walk in to the building, and theres a whole bunch of people standing around in their suits or dresses. Then I notice Caitlin. There she is with her friends, I still don't know where her date was, and one of them points to me. She turns around, walks up to me and, in front of everyone there, punches me right in the gut. She isn't a wimp, and I wasn't expecting it. Now I never let my guard down when I'm near her, but she's too good to resist, so I can't seem to give up on her. Does anyone have advice on how to get one of them?
