I'm not afraid of approaching, I'm not socially awkward, and I'm social. I've approached girls in the past, been rejected, you just brush it off. I'm not gonna be sitting in my room writing love poetry if things go badly.
Anyways, I havn't done much yet. I havn't really seen a natural opportunity to chat up after class, so I may just go plop down a seat away from her one day and just have casual conversation. I'm not gonna sit down and creep her out by hitting on her, I'm just gonna sit and talk a bit before class. If it goes well and I'm chatting her up as we we're walking from class just mention I'm gonna grab some coffee or whatever and that she should join me.
I think sitting next to her in a smaller discussion seems more natural than a big lecture hall imo.
Tough love my friend. I think what most people were trying to convey to you is not something related specifically to this situation. It was more of a suggestion of an almost lifestyle choice to a. take most social opportunities to talk to cool girls and b. don't get hung up on girls ... interact with them naturally and as you meet them.
It's understandable that you see someone and want to go chat to her. And no matter how much your mind tells you "**** it just do it" you need to be realistic. And I'll tell you what's realistic in your case ... she's in your class, natural interactions and opportunities WILL occur. You just make sure you're ready to take them. Keep your eyes open, and when the opportunities arise make sure you take them. You'll have a ****ing awesome life if you do, I promise you that much.
