bad idea?

this girl who lives in same street as me who i see quite often has been acting strangely around me especially last few times but then other times she is really into me and there are signs still that she still wants to be with me. I won't be seeing her for a time, and would like to just send a message saying i like her and ask how she feels about me just so i know and it's not on my mind. do you think this is a bad idea? how will she react to this?

'Sending messages' of that nature is lame, first of all.

Secondly, you make it seem like you don't know her that well. There is a small chance she could feel that way if she hardly knows you, but unless you interact with her (as opposed to just 'seeing her often'), there is nothing telling her to jump into a relationship with you (even if she does think you're cute).

Lastly, getting things like this off your chest right before going away is always bad because when you return, aside from the 'ok what now', there's the 'wait, does s/he still feel the same way, now that a month has passed?'

So in conclusion:
Don't message her.
Start talking to her more.
If you do tell her, do it after you come back.

Sorry if I got the wrong impression from your post. It was kind of unclear.

yeh see what you mean. we've gone out a few times. but i want to know where things stand between us as the messages are so mixed. so think should just arrange to meet up briefly to talk?
