Ask Dan & Jennifer

hey, I finished grade 12 and I went back for another year. There is a girl (gr.11) in my class(11/12 split drama) that I really like..i never felt this way before but I dont know if she has any interest in me at all. Second day of class, we did short skits and teacher chose partners and I was partnered up with her and it was great for the moments it lasted. Whenever we both see eachother in the hall she always says hi first and I say hey back. Sometimes, she just does like a little pinch/touch on my forehand wen she says hi. But sometimes I noticed that I was sitting in the caf at the table and then I saw her pass by me..I dont know if she didnt see me or not or just didnt want to say hi..i really dont know. I am always to shy, and never know what to talk about, one time I was goin to soccer practice through the halls and she was at her locker and she saw me and did this weird surprised happy scream cause I was dressed down before school was over and we all wore uniforms, I being an idiot just kept walking and then shes like "fine, bye"..so I go to her locker and am like "why you saying bye"..(IM TELLING YOU..I ALWAYS SAY THE WRONG THINGS) after that short moment I asked her what shes doin on the weekend since its friday and she said "nothing..mostly working" and im like "that sucks" then im just like "i g2g to practice, talk to ya later" and she said bye..i did this cause I paniced and had nothing to talk about. I am always first in the drama room and when she comes in she always says hi to me and I say hi back..we sometimes talk a bit during class and stuff and I always feel a vibe between us but I cant tell if its just me. my best friends gf is her friend and I talked to her and told her how I felt..I asked her if she could help me but she doesnt know how, she asked if I wanted her to go ask her if she likes me..i said no for now cause that would be weird...ive never had a GF before or even kissed a girl cause I was a gamer all my life but I quit games like 2 months ago and am social now. The other day I did a very strong act in drama where I actually tried for the first time and everyone laughed (it was suppose to funny) and I was the strongest performer and after it I looked at her and she told me that I was really good and really funny. Later that day, I was walking the halls and we saw eachother..I said hey, she said I was really good today..and im just like "thanks, I was ok" in a joking tone. The next day I wore my new lacoste shoes and she didnt say anything but later on when I was walking home talking with her friend thats trying to help me..she told me that she told her in the halls after they saw me that she really liked my shoes and they were nice and told her about my performance in drama. I have no idea if she wants to be friends only or not..I always walk out with her in drama class but never know what to say cause I think too much. Today I found out that she is a big flirter with guys so this just makes it harder on me. Im so confused. Theres a trip coming up where we will have 2 hours to do w/e we want before we watch the play..and I plan to chill with her or atleast try to but other than that..i have no idea what to do.

What should I do? How can I tell if she likes me a bit or not? Does she just want to be friends? Did I blow my chance? What should her friend do to help me?
