Of course, that also leaves me with the possibility that she could claim her parents said no, when in fact she never asked and is just looking for an excuse not to go out with me. Although I consider that possibility extremely slim, it's a possibility nontheless.
I dunno, maybe I'm just overthinking this whole thing now. Maybe it's as simple as just asking her out like I would any other girl.
Ask her parents for permission to ask her out. You will need to make a good impression. If you are a good, responsible student, tell them. If you have younger sisters you worry about when they are around boys like Zarathu, tell them. Look them in the eye and be respectful, and be sure they know you are interested in their daughter's best interests. Parents LOVE this. I swear.
If they give you permission, then you can ask her out.
Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?
