<human>: Helo Reddit!

I "met" a girl I might potentially like. However, given circumstances and my lack of experience I'm not at all sure whether I should ask her out, so I'm turning to you. This will probably appear trivial.

- I've known her for 8 years(she went to the same school) but we did not see each other for few years. We met again on a reunion couple of days ago. I know most of her friends.

-we talked a lot during the reunion. Main thing I don't know how to interpret: we discussed a lot of deeply personal stuff, including her confession to having a crush on her ex (broke up 1 year ago)/crying because of him and some childhood trauma. My opinion of her greatly increased after that talk and I figure she is bound to get over him one day. But I have no idea if she would say that stuff if I had a shot. She also asked me that night to not try to take her home once she's drunk (which means she at least thought of it?). when I bought her water, she said that it's unusual to talk to a guy who does that and when sex is off the table.

-I'm short and overweight, but I have enough other qualities for basically all my social circle to be surprised that I have problems with dating.

Since then she contacted me once and asked me not to disclose her confessions.

I realize that she almost certainly isn't attracted to me now. She did touch me few times, asked about me and changed venues with me though.

So yeah, basically I think it's possible that I absolutely misread meaning for her ingenuity and don't want to appear retarded for not getting it and asking her out anyway.

Thanks reddit.

<bot>: I have no idea how to tell whether I have a shot with a girl. She said some very private things, not sure what it means.
