    As many of you know, I met a really great girl at a con last weekend. I really like her and would like to pursue a relationship with her, but I don't know how to go about it.

    I met her at a couple of panels before seeing her at a ball that the con was hosting. I intended to start a conversation and try to ask her to dance from there, but she misheard my first sentence as asking her to dance and I just sort of went with it. We waited for a slow song while we talked all about Ace Attorney and the various nerdy things that we liked and then danced while we talked some more. After that first dance, we went to the con's game room and played around on Persona 4 Arena before heading back for one last two-song dance. After the ball ended, we swapped phone numbers and searched for the guy who I was originally at the con with, only to be met with miserable failure. Eventually, she went to her hotel with her group while I, having no place to sleep, stayed at the con and went to panels all night and morning.

    After the longest ten hours of my life, I went to the Nobuo Uematsu panel, video recorded it, and got his autograph (squee!). I waited for an hour after that and called the girl that I've been going on about for over 1000 characters to let her know that I would be waiting for her in the game room. I got her voicemail, left my message, and hung up. My phone had to be off except for that, though (low battery), so I didn't get her phone call from five minutes beforehand. She met me at the game room and all was fine, though. After a few matches in Persona 4 Arena, we headed to the food court where she bought herself some fries and allowed me to take a few. On the way there, we ran into one of her friends and I just sort of stood there while they caught up. After the foodcourt, all three of us headed back down to the game room where my new friend and her old friend played more of P4A together. After a little while, I asked if I could rest my head on her shoulder and, knowing that I had pulled an all-nighter, she let me do just that. I fell asleep for periods of a few minutes at a time while she watched and played some P4A matches. After that we just sort of walked around the con until she had to leave with her group, and at that point I stayed with her friend because I had nobody else to be with at the time. Since then, I've sent her one text message to let her know what my e-mail address is and ask her to call me sometime. I have yet to receive any kind of reply. I'm nervous about calling her myself because she works five days a week and I don't know what hours she's free. She's also moving next Monday and will be packing all weekend, which means she won't be free any time soon. She'll back for winter break and some time in January, though.

    So basically, how should I proceed from here and, if you've read the other details, have I been doing alright so far?

    I'm not an expert on relationships, but from what I read it sounds like you're doing everything right.

    You didn't specify how close you she is to you, but if she is close maybe you could offer to help he pack or something like that, I don't know.
    I would try to talk to her on the phone soon, just so you could establish where the relationship, or if there even is on, is. That would give you a good idea on what is appropriate to do at this point. It would also give you give you a chance to find out when she is reachable, and is more formal than a text or e-mail.

    Well buddy, get off the comp and get the girl, no point sitting around questioning what to do, just go for it.

    She's obviously interested in you, she put up with you for a couple of days, that more than most of us can manage with you, so you're not hitting your head against the wall here.

    Your doing fine as is, but you gotta push it it a bit.
