    Is that really passing for NSFW nowadays?

    Lol. In case the sarcasm wasn't spread thickly enough: please don't. Even if both of you love movies, you will not talk and you want to talk to her, see if you have anything in common that could actually represent points to form a relationship (friendship or dating-wise) upon but the fundamental part of that first meet is that you really just want to have a good time with someone you think you might be interested in beyond how preeeetty she is.

    Also please chill out and don't get into this with the thought that you might have met the mother of your children... while not impossible, it's highly improbable and that might make her weirded out if anything. Remember that your goal is meeting someone new and having as fun a time as possible.

    Or rich. Sad world but what can you do. We have not yet evolved into floating souls for which social aspects don't matter.

    I work in a college.

    She's cute. Preeeeeetty cute.

    So, I'm developing an strategy to "meet" her.

    I'll write "hey, you are very cute/beautiful/lovely :3, call me ! - xxxx-xxxx (my number).", and then I'll ask for someone to deliver to her (or maybe I'll deliver to her myself, I guess that's better.)

    This sound stupid, I know, but hey, if you ever liked someone you kinda know how this feeling is, right?

    My question is: Is this kinda scary/creepy?
    I don't want to scare her!

    And yes, I know what most of you will think "just go on and say hi!", but for people like me, that's not thaaaat easy :c.

    Thanks for reading. I really hope that you can lend me a hand.

    See you soon, champions! :3
    You have surpassed the 30 second rule. Once she makes eye contact with you, you only have 30 seconds to respond and plant the anchor. She probably makes eye contact with you because she thinks your staring at her... and in turn you think she is staring at you. This is a very common misunderstanding.

    What's so creepy about that?

    The artifact in question is likely caused by high concentrations of infrared radiation at the converging points of heat from the candles. The photographic chemicals which aren't reactive to infrared frequencies were likely saturated with the infrared radiation coming off of the candles which then interfered destructively with the incoming visible light at those points, causing the photographic chemicals to remain unreacted.

    From there pareidolia takes over.

    Ummmm, edging on creepy, yeah. Not super creepy, but certainly not likely to result in success.

    And you should just walk up to her and talk to her. It really IS that easy. Master your fear, and just do it. You'll be far more likely to succeed that way, and worst case, you just don't end up with her, which you probably won't if you try your weird note delivered by someone else thing.

    Bear in mind that if she does call you, you're going to have to go up to her and talk to her anyway. Might as well start now.

    Thanks, I appreciate it.

    Did they get walled in the dining room by the previous owners? *drools uncontrollably*

    Well, that is true about any situation like this, I still don't think though that instantly means he'd definitely get in trouble if it's approached the right way (not being pushy, coming of as genuinely nice, etc). It does depend though on the girl's personality.

    "Netflix and chill or nah?"

    That's the only line you need.

    And yeah. Opening with the compliment is a bit odd, and like you've been watching her way too closely for too long without making a move. Just walk up and say "Hi, I'm *insert name here*, would you be up for getting a coffee or a drink with me sometime?" If she says "Sure," you respond with, "OK great, how does Saturday at 5 PM at X Coffee Shop/Bar sound?"

    Done.

    Sit next to her in class, then play games with her, and by games i mean tic tac toe on a piece of paper in class, write down questions and shit, she'll usually play along if it's innocuous things like fav food and color. Dont be shy yourself, but dont be an open book at the same time, gotta keep a little mystique around yourself.
    Your powers are useless on me you silly billy...

    What about social media? If you don't want to ask her out directly right away, just ask for her email or FB or something. Then, if she agrees to adding you as that's more popular to do these days even for complete strangers, get to talking. After a couple days of talking via typing, ask her out. That way if all you get is no response which is an obvious 'no' then you don't have to deal with it face to face.

    Other than outright asking her as many have suggested already, and as someone with some anxieties myself, typing is waaaay easier, and people tend to tell you more over messaging =p

    And if she says no, you say okay and go on about your day. Water off a duck's back.

    Probably could, I just like to keep simple. I usually stick with the question game because it gets them talking, then if they ask you questions, there's some chemistry there, it's pretty easy to get a number from that point forward.

    Yup. Nice how after being told no a couple times, it stops bothering you so much. You just ask someone else.

    Though I rarely ask people out unless I have some reason to believe they're likely to say yes, which happens often enough.

    Same for me, but I usually get shot down. Human women don't generally go for sharks
