yeah, nothings going on between me and her (read ...damn for a background). I'm trying to get a chance, but I either chicken out or she avoids me.

However, my other friend has already made the move on someone else with a textbook example. found her after school, and told her he liked her. he said there were three possibilities; one was that she liked him back, two was that she didn't, three was that she is undecided and will tell him later.
three worked for her, and now they've scheduled a date on saturday.

should I try to do the same? any suggestions?
