<human>: Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell

So there is a girl at my school that some of my friends say is into me.  I had a class with her freshman year, but never really talked much, and have never really talked since.  She has recently been coming to my soccer games with her friends and cheering our team on as well. We are both seniors now.

I know who she is and I know that she is a pretty fun and cute girl.  I know that you should probably know someone before you date them, but I think it would be fun to go on a few dates and get to know her there.

The problem is that I don't really have social media, unlike just about every other person my age.  I just don't care for it.  So I don't have a way to talk to her through that.

A classmate of mine gave me her number, but I don't want to ask her out through text messages.  It just seems pretty cowardly.  But I also never see her anywhere.  I might see her once a month because I guess our classes just aren't close.

I guess my question is whether or not girls care if you ask them out through texts or not.  A girl's opinion on this would be very helpful.
<bot>: How do I ask a girl out that I know is into me, but we haven't really officially met.  And do girls care if you ask them out through texts?
