I'm confused about whether it's worth my time fussing over this or whether I should grow a pair and just ask?

Question - (27 July 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 29 July 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

i met this guy in college at the beginning of the year in my English Language class and i really want to ask him out on a date. i've never asked anyone before nor have i ever been asked, i usually just go out with a guy and it screws up because we don't really know each other. but i really want to get to know this guy, it's just that i'm scared of rejection, but who isn't? i don't really know if he feels anything for me, i just know that he used to choose to sit next to me when there were other seats available, until my friend stole said seat and he started sitting at the opposite side of the room facing me and my friends, and that sometimes i'd see catch him looking over or get told that he was looking over. we speak over FB and he never seems to ignore me and he's always friendly but as you can probably guess, i am utterly useless at knowing if someone likes me or not. i've invited him to parties before but he always says he's got plans but then says 'maybe next time'. i'm confused about whether it's worth my time fussing over this or whether i should grow a pair and just ask, plz help.

thank u for the answers, it's given me some guts n ur right that i shouldn't be scared, it's apart of life :). on the party front, we don't share any friends in common or if we do, they aren't major good friends. when i sat nxt to him in class, i was to shy to say anythin so i just spoke to my friend, which probably made things worse becoz we're both rather bubbly girls who are loud n proud all the time. but i struggle to be that way in front of him, i can only be bubbly online when i talk to him becoz i feel like a dick otherwise lol in hindsight, i've known him since september but only been talkin to him for about 3 :/

This might sound crazy, but I once asked a guy out and got rejected... sounds bad right? But it's not the nightmare it seems - I felt fantastic afterwards! Sure it was kind of embarrassing, but at least I'd got up the nerve to do it and I knew for sure where things stood, so I could move on. Just do it casually too, like 'wanna grab a coffee before class tomorrow?'
