<human>: **Background**

We are both currently seniors in college about three to four hours away from one another. I have not been in a relationship since high school and haven't fallen this hard for a girl in years. I get the impression that she got out of a long-term relationship at the beginning of the year.

**Situation**

I was recently out-of-state for about three days at a conference. Representatives from many different colleges were there for the weekend.

We were first introduced because we had a couple of mutual friends who were also at the conference. During the weekend, we hung out at various times only in group settings (both at the conference during the day itself and afterward at bars). After talking to her more and more, I realized that I was greatly attracted to her and her personality.

By the final day of the conference, I really felt like we were starting to hit it off. However, I am very out of practice at interpreting these kinds of signals. So I admit that I could be completely off base. Unfortunately, I never worked up the courage to ask for her number, but have friended her on Facebook.

Now I'm back at college and can't get her out of my head. I don't want this to turn into another "what-if" situation in my life. If I don't say anything, I'm afraid that we'll just fade away from each other without even so much as a friendship.

I'm just not sure what to say to make it clear that I would love to get to actually know her better, while expressing slight romantic interest. Maybe I don't express any romantic interest and simply try to get to know her better and hope that we cross paths in the future? It sounds like there's a decent change we end up working in the same city following college. It's possible that we don't though.

This is all hindered by the fact that we don't attend the same college. Otherwise, I simply would have seen if she was interested in going out sometime.

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
