Okay... I recently switched schools, and made a bunch of new friends... and there's one in particular that I like... a LOT. (Let's call her Emma)

So Emma and I hit it off right away, becoming almost instant friends. We have a sort of intellectual friendship, and she says that before I came to the school, no one really understood her. I love spending time around her, and when I pass her in the hall, I literally cannot stop smiling...

She's really shy, but seems to really like spending time with me. Also, I never see her making any physical contact with anyone else (to the point of avoiding people), but she has no qualms about coming up behind me and grabbing my shoulders or tapping my back with all her fingers...

I don't know. She has never had a boyfriend, and doesn't seem to express much of an interest in guys... Think I have a shot? For now, I'm not going to do anything, just be better friends and observe... But I'm crossing my fingers :)
