    My advice still applies, on a smaller scale. There is no substitute for confidence... which, at the very least, will guide him to ask her out, if nothing else.

    17 is a good age to get over the fear of rejection. Fear will destroy confidence.

    Thanks for the answers.. Of course I know there has to be face to face contact, I'm not that foolish ;)

    I'm just thinking that - shouldn't be already kind of clear if I'm in the friend zone or not? I want to know because I don't want to approach her in a romantic/sexual way if it's no use. I just want to know where I stand right now with her.

    Yea but how the heck can I dot that - we've never even talked in real life, it would be way too awkward and ruin my chances :-\

    I would do away with the internet chat and start talking face to face... the internet can be tricky and there is always a danger to things that go on in there... do away with your fear, meet face to face and take it from there. She does know who you are right? I mean, you both know each other?? Correct??

    Well I'd like to meet her in person but school is over now, so to do that I have to ask her out for a drink or something, which I already did but she hasn't answered yet..

    And yea we know each other pretty well, even though we only talked over the net. However we've seen each other, etc...

    You can't even go up to her and talk to her, how can being with her in a romantic/sexual way even come in to play.
    Call her up and ask her out, if you can't even do that, I'm thinking you are not ready for anything.

    Ok well, I guess you're right. I got to have the balls to ask her out (which I already did) and have even more balls to accept rejection, if it comes.

    Rejection will happen more often than not, believe me. You just need to remember that nothing is make or break when it comes to these situations.

    Well first you need to stop telling yourself she will reject you. If you believe that on the outset it shows in how you approach her.

    Yea that's true, I keep telling her about having self confidence and believing in one's self (talking about exams and stuff) - I don't see why I shouldn't believe my own words.

    XM enough of this! Man up, ask her out, and then post an update! This thread should have been over by now!

    You are a good dude and she will be glad to go out for a "drink" with you. Believe it!

    Let's wait for the response...

    But on a side note, is this what our world has come too? Asking people out over the internet, even when you attend the same school together?

    School's over - I want to but I can't help it, can I...

    Couldn't you get your friends to ask her, and then report back to you. Because then you won't feel awkward! But she'll know that you really are thinking about the way she is acting and even if your friends can't find anything out, you will be able to then hopefully get the answer you want on your own

    Or you could just be a man and do it yourself! What has happened to the new generation of kids. You guys are going to be in serious trouble once college hits.
