i'm a guy, she's a girl, both in 8th grade(13-14yrs.) I have liked her for awhile and haven't really gotten anywhere with her. I stare at her in the L.A. class i have with her, and in gym sometimes(not a stalker stare, just a short 3 sec. stare) I asked one of her friends tht i knew more for her screen name and she told me. I've been talking to her online for a little while nd i know a lot about her now. the problem is, i we don't approach each other in school. There's a dinner dance at our school on 5/31 and i don't know if other people are asking people out, but i'd like to go with her. I don't know how she feels about me and i'm afraid to ask her friend. We're in the same "social class" so i'm not worried about popularity. I can't seem to talk to her in person though. She's always with her friends. I can have a full conversation with her online though. is that normal. In conclusion, how should i find out how she feels about me, how to ask her out, and how to talk to her in person.
Answer:
When is she likely to be apart from her friends? Can you find her then?

If not, then next time you're on IM, can you set a 'date'? A time to meet at school when she is away from her friends, or maybe you could casually mention it on IM (I'd like to hang out with you but you're always around your friends, can I buy you lunch tomorrow/stay after to talk about our LA homework/etc?) or whatever good idea you can come up with to do alone with her - just make sure it's something casual at school.

Since you see her in class, you could also sit next to her and try to talk to her. If you only see her in passing, then lean over and crack a joke about something the teacher did, or mention something you both said on IM the other day, or whatever.

Also, can you schedule some kind of get together where it's her friends and your friends together?

When you finally get her alone, start talking to her in person as a friend. Think about some things you both have in common or that you have talked about over IM, and discuss those in person. If you fear drawing a blank, then have a list of things you can talk about in mind.

Once you get used to talking to her in person, then you will feel more comfortable asking her out. She will also start hanging out more with you, making it easier to talk, just the two of you.

Then you say, 'hey, you know the dinner dance, i don't know if people are asking people out, but do you want to come with me.
