Ok at breakfast 7:00 am I go to the school cafeteria and I see a girl who I have a crush on, and today she was looking at me as she

entered the cafeteria. I had her in my Eng. Comp. 1 class last semester and we talked a couple of times but I was to nervous to

start it and I think she knew that. Anyway I was wanting encouragement to talk to her if shes there again b/c theres her, me, two

elderly men, and the staff and thats all in the cafeteria and she eats alone too, so I was going to go reintroduce myself and ask if I

could keep her company while I ate my breakfast and she ate hers. I don't even know if she will be there again or if she likes me

still but I wanted to try.

Encouragement, advice??

YOu can do it! Just go to her, say your name, and if she invites you, sit down and talk to her. Try to find what she likes so you can talk about it. Maybe you guys have something in common! -Power Girl

why not? worse case, she says no. Otherwise, you might find something good there. Don't force it, just go with the flow. Be nice and polite, smile, usual stuff. Be yourself, don't try too hard, etc.

Don't overthink it, just do it! One of my biggest regrets from college was when a girl who worked in the dining commons sat down to dinner next to me, but I just panicked and left. If she always eats alone, you must have a few things in common: hell, you may eventually even learn she's on the spectrum.

If you're nervous from overthinking this...um...well...just tell yourself "this won't translate into a 'date'", and whatever happens will meet or exceed your expectations, I guess.

No, I'm not being sarcastic. I just have no idea what I'm talking about. Just trying to steer you off my path, which led to a botched castration attempt right after graduation. With incelness, THERE ARE ALSO REGRETS!

PIE! Lol, man, just say hi and say something like, "hey, can I sit here? you look kind of lonely" ... or something kind of jokingly, with a smile on your face of coarse... and there's no way she could say "no, go sit over there". Then it could lead to what you did on the weekend... etc, or anything. The worst that can happen is a bit of awkward silence.
