    Ok so recently I've made friends with this new girl at my school who is also gay. She's started flirting with me A LOT - like we'll text each other and she'll say stuff like how cute I am and how I should date her. So I've just kinda gone with it and flirted back - I haven't actually told her I'm gay too but I've hinted at it and I'm pretty sure she's figured it out.
    Anyway, the problem is that I don't know how much of it is serious or whether it's all a joke - sometimes it seems like she really means it but other times I think she's just messing around. I find her kind of adorable and I think I've developed a pretty big crush on her, but I'm scared of asking her out or something because I have literally never been on a date and I'm terrified that I would be super awkward.
    What should I do? Should I let her know that I actually do like her in that way? I'm so confused right now I don't know how to react!!
    (Sorry for slightly long post)

    If you think she might say yes (and it sounds like she would), I'd ask. Worst case scenario: it's awkward for a little while, but then you know what her answer is. Best case scenario is a lot better.

    Sometimes the thought of initiating feels like I'm jumping off of a two story building. The first time I asked a girl out it took me about 5 minutes of awkward stuttering because the words wouldn't come out. In hindsight I regret nothing, but I definitely needed to give myself a little push. If this sounds like you then I'd say just go for it. You mention being worried because you'd never been on a date before. Even if you do end up being awkward, at least next time you'll have been on a date before (if that makes any sense).

    Hope this helped any, and best of luck!

    I agree with this! You have much more to win than to lose - it's worth trying. So I would definitely ask her out :slight_smile:

    Good luck and keep us updated if you want :wink:
