I am not schooled in the art of game so I'll ask about this situation I'm in. I'm gonna be honest and say I kinda feel pathetic that I'm even not further along in the game than I am and that I'm asking about this.
I know this girl from high school. Senior year is when I had the most contact with her. And when I say contact I mean the bare minimum.
Nothing happened there, but I always felt like she liked me or whatever and in general I was kinda somewhere in between

and

.
I remember I went to some party and she happened to be there. I was sitting down and she sat next to me and was chatting it up. I don't remember much of that night besides that cuz nothing much happened, but I kinda felt overwhelmed in my head cuz all of that stuff with chicks was/is new to me and I think she was really trying to talk to me and I was like

cuz not only was she there but some other girl that I was

over. I rememeber leaving feel like I had an anxiety attack of some sort. Mind was racing and I was

at myself.
Fast forward to college. She went to the same college as I did. I never really ever had classes with her, but when I did bump into her, she seemed happy to see me and made some effort (from what i recall) to contact me a bit in the beginning (first year). I was kinda

at the time cuz I didn't feel like I was having any good kind of experience at the school. I think she invited me to her dorm once and I didn't. I was being a straight fool. Senior year of college, she comments on my failbook stuff a little bit and sounded interested in me and was like we should chill sometime or something. I was like how we should chill sometime next week or something. Ain't get a response and nothing ended up happening.
Then later into the year and closer to graduation, basically the same situation kinda happened except i initiated in some corny fashion in a failbook message or whatever. That ended up going nowhere after a few messages when I didn't get a response. Then I get some invite to some kinda get together at her apartment where her and her friend lived (i guess) and it was supposed to be like the last get together or some ish cuz they were both obviously not gonna b living there anymore. So I ask about how to get there for her number which i still didnt have (smfh i know but i think i had it before and lost it but im not sure) and shes like oh she didnt see the message about meeting up and gives me her number.
I meet up and go to that thing which is supposed to be from like 9-3 even though it was described as being very loose. I get there at 10 and as Im getting something to bring there, shes like how its dying down. I was still in purchasing mode so I bought some beer to bring and then i found out everybody dipped including her. Ain't get much of an apology really and I didn't voice any anger to her or anything in a text. I left it at that (freezing) and it's been 2 weeks. I feel like texting her but I feel like thats the wrong thing to do. I don't know wtf to do.
Help, breh .
Side question: what are good places for first dates?
