well, I think it's an o.k. time to ask her out. Id probably do group dates to start with, cuz it's less akward, and if you can't think of a convo starter, you have others there to help lol How old are you 2 btw? |

I'd tell you that you should ask her out if you're old enough to begin considering marriage (probably around 18-20 or so). Otherwise, I'd wait and just be friends and go places in groups so that there's no pressure to date or move forward or whatever. I liked (had a romantic interest in) the girl that I'm dating since Freshman year, but we only started dating last month (and I'm a Senior now in High School).
In either case though, if you're a Christian you should read the books For Young Men Only (which I assume you have if you're here), perhaps FYWO too just to get the opposite perspective (I borrowed this one from my friend), Single Men Are Like Waffles, Single Women Are Like Spaghetti, and The Five Love Languages for Singles. You could read the non-singles versions of these last couple books, but there's a lot of stuff in them that applies more to married people.

| yeah, i would say definitely start with group dates. 17 is an okay age, i mean, it all depends on your own opinion of how mature you think you should be. for me, i agree with mike, if you're ready to think about marriage (which, legally, is 18+) then you're ready to date. a year is a good amount of time to get to know her as a friend, so that's good, too. go ahead, if you've prayed about it and believe that this is where God is leading you two. just my thoughts. :] |

| The last two books Mike listed I definitely recommend. (I say 'last two' because I assume you have the first one) |

hmmm...maybe try to test the waters a little, of u can. notice if she acts any different around you than how just friends would act. pray about it. MAYBE - and this is a huge maybe --- ask one of her friends who u trust if she might like you. but thats a B--I---G maybe. and until u find out nething definite, just keep being friends. |
