<human>: So some background (throwaway here), like my username suggests, I have no relationship experience. I've had my fair shares of rejections, so that kind of stopped me from asking just any girls I found to my liking to hangout, date, etc.

So let's go to my current situation. I knew this girl from one of my classes during the spring semester. She sat next to me and basically that was it, no talking, nothing. However, we both began to open up quite late during the semester and I got her number by finals week, hoping to study with her and maybe hangout with her. I later find out our schedules didn't match, and nothing really happened.

I chose to kept in contact during the summer (currently) by asking how she did in the class and it kinda snowballed into a series of questions asked by me which she would reply. However, her replies would tend to be during nighttime (around 9-10) a good few hours after my initial text. The good thing if I kept texting, she would keep replying until she fell asleep (around 12 I think) and respond back in the morning. The process would start over. This happened for a few days now and this is where my question comes in. 

I want to ask her to hang out, maybe even a date, but I'm unsure if I want to do it over a text. She lives roughly 1.5 hours away from me if that's any help. I'll respond to any other questions you might have for me in the thread. Thanks.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
