so i'm in college, and this girl in my dorm who i infrequently see has given me a lot of IOI's and really wants me (whether as a bf or for a one night stand, i don't know). i can't think of any ways to hang out with her though. all i need to do is start the interaction and then it will take care of itself. any advice on how to hang out with her?

see any number of openers here

"Hi, can I get a quick female opinion? The canteen ladies always wink at me and give me extra fries. Do they like me, or are they trying to fatten me up?"

then have a chat about something

then number close with intention of meeting up to do someing

"You know what, I walked past that coffee shop near by and saw that they had this ******, have you tried it?"

"Well, we should go tomorrow and check it out together"

or something else - bsaic game - if she likes you it doesn't need to be that slick and you can move to the close fairly quickly, she'll know what you are doing and will play along

What I would advise - Get some friends together (preferably guys and girls) to play a game of Kings Cup in your dorm room (great drinking game when guys and girls are involved, look it up if you aren't familiar). Be sure to make eye contact and smile at her once in a while during the game. Invite her and then isolate from there when you feel the time is right.

Some parts of the game you have to chug. Well at least in the way I usually play it. If you aren't a big drinker just fake it during these parts. You don't wanna get too faded.
