I don't know if this is really an update but I just kind of needed to get this of my chest. I had a dream last night. I was siting at a college cafe talking to a girl. She was cute if a little chubby. She was one of those girls that likes to play video games casually, loves the BBC, and doesn't really care about fashion or waring make up. We were just sort of talking about nothing when suddenly she starts blushing and says "hay you want to bounce later?" I should have realized that this was a dream after that strange sentence but my brain just sort of rolled with it and translated bounce as [to hang out with connotations of dating]. She Looks away after asking me and I could tell she was thinking something like "What the hell am I doing? I'm just 'one of the guys'. There's no way any one would want to go out with me" I just sort of sit there for a bit, thinking about how lucky I am that a girl would not only like me, but like me enough to ask me out. I of course say yes. And just as I'm hitting the peek of my joy, my mind reminds me that this is to good to be true and that I rely should just wake up. I do of course, and find myself sitting alone in my bed. Felt like shit. Like I said, not really an update but I just had to vent, feels better now.

I hope things ge better for you soon, I know this kind of thing can be heard. I don't remember if you've ever tried just asking her to go do something but that might not be a bad thing to do at this point. It seems like you've been interacting with her for a bit and if she isn't willing to try something by now it may never happen. I know you want it to be a sure thing before you ask her out but the sure thing doesn't exist. Just ask her to do something casual and let her know that you want it to be one on one, make sure she knows that it being one on one is important because this will show your interest without you having to just blurt out that you want to date her. Stay casual and be smooth, I know you can be. As for the McJob, don't think of it as a dead end, just a first level forest full of lvl 1 monsters. Level up and move on.
