I'll share a story for you:
I had a pretty good friend in Grade 9 (sort of young, so I guess you could blame that for it not working out.) Anyways, she had a crush on me, but I was hesitant. Personally, I didn't want to ruin the good friendship we had going on. She was really persistent, so what the hell, right?
We went out for 2 months? Probably not even that long. I decided not to act different that I did when we were friends. I figured that if she liked me as a friend, she'd like me the same way if we were going out. NOT! She expected me to be all romantic to the point of disgust. Yeah, I tried, but I didn't want it to get out of hand, so I tried to ignore it. Big mistake.
We talk occasionally now, but I regret it. I wish we never went out, because our perfectly good friendship went down the drain, and it'll never be as good as it was before we went out.
I'm not saying don't go for it, I'm saying that if you really want to, great! But just keep in mind that it's the friendship that really counts, and you have to be careful not to tamper with it when you do go out. Or else, you'll end up never talking to her again. I advise that you talk to her about what you and her expect when you take this friendship to a new level. Feelings, attitudes, and whether or not you should start eating her face right away may be good topics to discuss.
Good luck. Hope it helps!
Jam it back in, in the dark.
