Right first post so be gentle, and I realise it's a quite a long backstory but I'm just looking for some advice.

Right, fairly hot girl lives in my halls of residence at university. Have always been chatty and get on fairly well. Have recently started to up with sort of I guess you could say gentle kino, as in touching knee/fore arm/upper arm when talking or lower back when speaking into ears at clubs.
Always make good eye contact and get lots of other contact that I'm not sure if it's an IOI or not. Like when we sit in our big group at the club she always makes sure she's next to me and leans in when I'm talking again legs constantly pressed on mine. Similarly whenever we are on the bus she sits opposite and makes strong contact (even when bus is empty so she could have lots of room).

She's always laughing at my "jokes", even when incredibly un-funny, or is always lauging then saying something along the lines "omg thats a good one".

The only thing is I'm not sure is where to go from here, part of me thinks I should up my kino? Then part of me thinks I should just be more flirty etc.

Will have a couple of opportunities next week as she's begged me to go into one of her lectures (a different subject from mine) and sit with her before going to a film with our other SPAM (who again do other subjects and have their own lectures).
And she's begging me to go up on stage in the local club on Wednesday (when I say stage it's just 3 foot in the ground where 10 or so people go up).

The final thing that makes me unsure what to do is that she often has a few other lads that know her well from her course and I can tell they fancy her like fuck but lack the balls to even to the wanky stuff I'm trying (to scared to even tap her on the arm to get attention or anything)

Think thats it.

Oh no, remembered one other thing, sometimes she'll be dancing around with her girly mates and will keep catching my eye when I'm dancing with my mates then instantly look away?!

I realise this is a long and rambling post but ANY advice will greatly be welcomed!
Cheers

it sounds like you're off to a great start.

but don't try to seduce her just yet, or you'll blow it

You need to get her to qualfiy herself to you before any seduction will take place.

ask yourself this question: Is her developing a crush on you, enough of a reason for you (a high valued man) to give her the time of day?...

...if you said 'no', you're correct.

ask her screening questions about herself, that make her feel as if she must meet your standards

you're in A3. do a search for it, there is TONS of discussion on it.

good luck

Great will search for A3 and have a look for some screening questions too.
Thanks a lot

Dave I am in that same stage with this chick at school let us know what specific plans you will try to execute after you get her from A3 to comfort.
