There's this girl in my English class who I've had a crush on for quite a long time.
The one problem is that she's an arrogant intellectual who's been accepted at Magdelen College Oxford. Frankly, I'm quite intimidated of her. At times, I get the feeling that she's also attracted to me (I'm not deluded, my friends agree) but I'm too scared to speak to her in case I make an arse of myself. Don't get me wrong, I'm very intelligent - but I'm not the next James Joyce.
I am similar to her in quite a number of manners. I've just not been able to build up the confidence to ask her out for a drink. Any advice for dealing with a genius?
