We had a TFP'er in the same situation, more or less, earlier this year. To put it as simply as I can, that situation would be what one would call 'clueless'.
After a group smack on the back of his head, he got the message that she was interested...long story short-he's now half of an adorable couple.
Consider this the smack on the back of your head.
I realize rejection is a step-stopper, but I also have to tell you that no one ever dropped dead hearing the word "no".
She's sending signals and your receiver has no batteries, dude....
