Inexperience, in my case. Haven't tried in four damn years, don't have a damn clue what i'm doing.

She is in class today. And, apparently, *required* to go to the career fair for a new-student session (something i took last semester when i was a new student), so it wouldn't work anyway because she's there, but as part of a group. So there's that.

Next week, people.

Only one way to cure that, ask her. 

You'll probably be rejected because fact is there are more rejections than successes in the pursuit of love, but it isn't the rejections that matter and you shouldn't put much care towards them.

Oh, i agree it'll likely be so. Fortunately this year (as my tag suggests) i'm working on rebuilding my social life because i finally have a job which lets me keep nights and weekends free. As i said in the OP, i "met" her at a party (had actually met her before that but not noticed her), and there will be more parties to be had for sure.

Just don't want to pussyfoot around this as i too often have in the past.

She did, however, stop me after class today (before she spirited off to the career fair) to bring up a point i had made during the lecture. It happened to be the unfortunate topic of sex-selective abortions (we weren't getting into a whole life/choice thing, just discussing some of the cultural factors which impact the phenomenon, specifically in India, which is her ethnic background)

Isn't a bad sign, anyway. She's more likely to at least give it a shot, or be a potential friend in the other event.
