    I'm a 19 year old male who recently started a FAS course which is due to last for just under 9 months. I got talking to a girl on the course about 2 weeks ago that gets the same bus as me every morning and we get on really well we can talk about anything and are always having a laugh she recently started sitting beside me on the course and at lunch. Thing is I like her and I think she likes me shes always facebooking about how she likes someone and that if ya never try you'll never know.

    Thing is I don't know what to do or what to say? If she rejects me then it'd be really awkward for the next 9 months.

    I finally bit the bullet and told her I liked here she said she liked me.

    Thing is we get the same bus everyday and are on the same course. How should I approach things?

    Well you already know she's interested now so that's the hard part done. Why not ask her if she is interested in doing something some evening or weekend? Meet up for food, coffee or a drink or something that will let you get to know each other better on an 'out of course' basis.

    Good luck

    Just be friends and get to know her arrange to meet over the weekend or do something after your course finishes on Friday cinema maybe.
    Don't be worried you have made the first move and she feels the same relax enjoy being friends.

    Good luck

    Yup. Now that you have taken the first step, don't lose tempo or she might feel that you are losing interest. Get on with it! And good luck.

    Right ok quick update.

    Myself and the girl went to Dublin shopping on Friday and we had a good day we talked alot got a bit of food and even stopped for a few pints. Thing is we haven't even kissed yet and I really like her and she really likes me she even told me on numerous occasions she really likes me but I think its just awkward moving in for a kiss because we sort of know each other so well if you know what I mean

    Just do it!
    She's nervous about it - you're nervous about it. So you're both in the same boat. Have you held hands with her? What about a cinema date.. where you can slowly end up holding hands or something? (Elbows touching in the darkness.. leaning in to whisper to each other.. etc etc!!) And then a kiss at the bus stop on the way home!

    You will be a bag of nerves - but so will she!

    Nope haven't held hands as of yet. We are with each other everyday we get the same train and sit beside each other every day and go for lunch. Its like I know her too well if you know what I mean like.

    I think tomorrow when we get off the train i'm going to insinuate holding hands like?

    Really OP, go for it! She has told you she feels the same as you do. She is feeling just as anxious and nervous as you are. And you can be fairly sure she's thinking to herself "Will I just kiss him?" "Will I try hold his hand?" Etc etc...

    You'll have sweaty palms and your heart will be pounding you'll psychic yourself up and back down so many times before you actually build up the courage to do it!! But you'll be delighted when you do. (and, I hope, so will she!)
