I mean, I now think there's a good possibility she might be interested in me. But the prospect of being at a party with her now is kind of terrifying. If she takes the reigns, great, that's awesome. I can go with the flow. But if she doesn't, then I'll be obsessing all night. On the one hand, if I'm just misinterpreting her due to wishful thinking, then she could be totally weirded out by any advances I make. Which is bad, since we are in debate together, and currently slated to be partners, and I definitely would want to be friends with her at least, so I don't want to ruin any of that with awkwardness. On the other hand, if I miss out on her signals, and fail to reciprocate, then I'm missing out on a potential relationship with an incredibly intelligent, interesting, independent girl. Which would be bad.
And also she seems to be fairly sexually active, but not in an exhibitionist/attention-getting way, but in a purely doing-it-because-she-enjoys-it, rather empowered fashion, which is in and of itself appealing, but also intimidating. Because I've never had sex other than being on the receiving end of male-on-male action. So what if she wants it at the party? Thankfully, I doubt that any girl would ever want to jump my bones at some party -- I'm not the kind of guy that happens to. But then again you never know.
So. Yeah. Advice would be good.
Well, she sounds like a pretty cool girl, as in, no bitchy attention-whoring game-playing psychodrama stuff, so you should be able to just be yourself and talk to her honestly and be straightforward. I mean, don't just walk up to her at the party and say, "I like you, can we make out on the couch?" But if you get a chance to ask her out, you should. It's an honest, direct, and non-creepy way of expressing interest, and if she weren't actually interested in you, she can just politely decline and there's a much smaller chance of one of you not enjoying the rest of the party out of awkwardness.
Also, are you over 18 or whatever the age of consent is in your state? Because you really shouldn't have sex with her if you're not, it's called statutory rape.

@Will -- no, I do Parliamentary debate, because fuck Policy, son. I am not speed-reading some nonsense off of cards over and over and over again at every tournament. Policy kids are fucking nuts.
I did it in High School and won state. But you're right that it's a twisted form of competition and really inapplicable to ever trying to convince anyone of anything. It has some interesting tactical thinking to it though.
My brother was all about cross-ex. I wonder if he's still ego-searching my posts for any mention of him. If so, he's a dick. You hear that, Michael?
CX really makes assholes out of people. I was a raging dickhead while I did it and it took a few years to wear off.
I can't even remember the last time I did anything that could be considered "sociable."
Have you accidentally made eye contact with someone outside from behind your slightly-drawn-back curtained window while telling yourself that the world is sick, sick, sick and should be cleansed with fire and lye?
So I forced myself to talk to people like you guys told me to do a week ago.
And it worked. I made new friends.
But then my new friend was sitting with my lab partner * she was so fucking mean, like power and control I will dominatrix you mean* " Sure you guys can do some of the experiments ".... 2 seconds later
" YOU ARE DOING IT ALL WRONG, NO NO. FINE ITS FINE. NO NO. IT DOESNT EVEN MATTER ANYWAYS "
I bailed out
English, motherfucker! Do you speak it?!
Maybe he's never hered it spoken the right way.
I do hail from West Virginia.

I can assure you all that I was the most inept person at getting girls when I went to university, I was a virgin, I had barely kissed a girl before. I could hardly TALK to girls.
But even I could get laid on a regular basis. Sure the first few encounters I had made me feel like a god damned idiot but you know, after a while I got some nerve and it wasnt so hard.

So I thought it crazy enough to construct a 100-member All-Star Senate- the two greatest Americans to ever serve their respective states in the Senate.
Now I've got it into my head to do the 435-member House. I have to be either a North Coast intellectual elitist snob, some sort of super-patriot, or else the Asberger's has struck again because not even boredom can explain this one.
To have mercy on myself, I'm going to impose some rules:
*No set state restrictions on delegations as long as each state has at least one representative. If California can only scrounge up the one, and Delaware manages to snag a hundred or so, well, so be it. Exactly 53 Californians? Fuck you.
*If you're already in the All-Star Senate, you can't be in the All-Star House. Theoretically, the Senate should have the better stack of Congresspeople anyway.
*The current Senators are locked in. This means I'm not going back to shoehorn the third-place Senator from a given state in just so I can slide one of the top two into the House.
Should make things easier.

No.
This title goes to me. And you goddamn well know it.

You can be, like, second-most inept.
I think I can be a contender.
Edit: I mean, my college career is just starting, but I have a feeling that it's going to get messy.
So I've gotten pretty normalized in my eating and exercise habits. I tend to eat 1200 calories on a light day, 1800 on a heavier day, with 1500 being the steady average. On most days, I stay true to the 30/40/30 ratio in terms of fat/protein/carbs, and I get around 15 grams of fiber, a little more or less. However, I don't eat nearly enough vegetables. (Read: almost none). Whole grains, protein, vitamins, fruit, etc not an issue. But I really don't eat many veggies. Damn.
As for exercise, I try to do 30 minutes of aerobic (DDR lolol) per day. Weightlifting 2-to-3 times a week.

Well, I like to think im not that inept anymore, maybe still somewhat inept. But starting first year I was brutal.
At least I had motivation, I'll give myself that.

That's a pretty light load of calories. Are you trying to lose weight?
I'm on about the same regime as you are, though I've been lifting five times a week and have been trying to get my calories up.

Yeah, I mean, I was really just planning on focusing on being friends/debate partners for now, and if anything grew out of that, then great. But now I'm wondering if that's happening sooner than I anticipated, and if I'm expected to make a move. I don't want end up putting her off through inaction. Especially when I am genuinely interested in her.
So, asking her out is something I'm worried about, because, again, it's still rather early. I haven't known her that long. But if we're at a party together, she might be giving me signals, and she might be disappointed if I don't pick up on them.
Or even worse, what if she expects me to persue her? I'm terrible at that, and I really don't want to be put in that stressful of a situation. I'm just not going to do it. I don't think it's wise at this point in time. But then maybe that will backfire. Argh.
Also, are you over 18 or whatever the age of consent is in your state? Because you really shouldn't have sex with her if you're not, it's called statutory rape.
I'm 17, she's 19. I think that's legal, either because I can give consent, or because the age difference is under three years. I'm pretty sure. But I mean, even if it were illegal I'd still do it. There's no way in hell -- I'm 17 and consenting, why should I be prohibited from that? It's absurd.

Fucking A.
@Al_wat: I'm good, man. You can have my share.
