Well, I did it. My curiosity finally got the best of me so I sat down and wrote the following messege to the girl I've been trying to get more dates with. To be honest, I'm a little embarressed to post it here, but feedback would be appreciated and might even help me out in the long run. Here is the content of the letter:
"How's it going? Are things going well for you?
"This is going to be really hard for me. There really is no easy way to explain this, so I'm going to go out on a limb here. I've been meaning to talk to you about something in person for a long time now, but it seems like every time I try, something interrupts. Please keep reading and hear me out."
"We went on several dates what seems like a long time ago. I had a lot of fun with you going to the Irish festival and going ice skating soon after that. It seemed like we had a lot in common and that we both had a good time. I was excited to having dinner with you here at the house and to go to the baseball game the week after that, but for some reason, I became really shy around you. I couldn't talk, and I could barely keep myself from shaking because I was so nervous. I came to realize that you were starting to grow on me."
"There is so much I could say, but I'm afraid I may have said too much already. I was hoping to get a 5th date with you and talk to you about it then, but you broke your foot, trips and work got in the way, and things just seemed to fall apart."
"I only have one simple question for you. By now you may already have an idea what it is and after not receiving a response to phone calls and messages recently, I think I may already know the answer, but to ease my mind, I guess I need to hear it from you instead of wondering "what if" for the rest of my life. I'm not asking to start a relationship or anything big. After getting to know you a little bit better, I have come to appreciate and respect the person you are and I would like to continue to get to know you better. All I'm asking is, would you like to do the same?"
"I hope you don't take this the wrong way. I've had a few too many times where I didn't take any action and every once in a while, I wonder the big "what if?" I'm not asking for a big answer. A simple yes or no will do, but I do ask that you reply with an answer. Either way, there will be no hard feelings. I'm happy with countinuing our friendship as is and your honest response will be appreciated."
"I hope you have a great week.
Joshua"
Hopefully she doesn't take it the wrong way.

I like the letter and think that it is totoally okay to do it. I think it's good for her to know what you are thinking. It's good for you too since other communications haven't worked to help get the answer you're looking for. Good Job. Hope you get your answer soon.
Here's what you should do. Just walk up to her and give her a big fat kiss on the lips! Okay, kidding. Send her the letter...snail mail. She will appreciate it more. Good luck my friend.
