    Oh, so you haven't set a date... well, I'd say don't contact her again for at least 10 days, then PM her with something like "how about tomorrow at ___ ?"

    She also gave me her number, too, forgot to mention. But yeah, I agree that it's not a date. Still, no objections using the "I have a boyfriend" reason...

    Okay, so text her to set the date, rather than PM her on facebook.

    invite her to an event or something where you're going with a bunch of people keep doing that until you get her to say yes and see if she'll bring a 'date' if she does she can introduce you to him

    OK, so finally I texted her and her first reply was pretty enthusiastic. She used numerous emoticons in our brief text chat to set up a meet for Thursday. Now I am treating it as catching up but is there any chance this is actually a date and my overanalyzing, misinterpreting mind is mislabeling it a "meet" when it is actually a date?

    If you never used the word "date" then it's not a date. When you see her, greet her with a hug (she is an old good friend after all), open the door for her... nothing more until you find out whether she's single.

    i would suggest knock her on FB, like others said about the intro, try to talk about things you done with her, make a topic to discuss should help

    New plan: Besides meeting this girl and trying to get a date with her, I want to ask another good friend if she can set up a blind date for me. How would I do it and is it a good idea? I just want to try anything and everything. I am super desperate now. Going on 23 which means being young for only maybe 2 more years...so depressing. Need to live now before it's too late.

    Sure it's a good idea :-). Just contact her the way you usually contact her and say something like "Hey can you set me up on a date with someone? Think of it as a birthday present :-P!"... if you're good friends it should work, I don't see why it shouldn't. Provided she knows someone who is available.

    And we're going to be young at least until we're 30, don't worry ;-).

    So...when I go for trying to set up a date and she inevitably makes up or actually has a boyfriend or contrives some other excuse, how exactly do I politely accept that?
