Search Results: how to handle rejection

We went to high school together and just talked in class every so often. I always admired her, not to the point where I had any kind of crush though. Well we both started at the same college as freshmen 8 weeks ago, and our dorms are right next to each other. Since we moved in, we have been hanging out 3-5 times a week. The first 4 weeks I felt some tension, and it seemed like she was dropping a couple hints she liked me. Plus she initiated about everything. Well I didn't show any interest back and it seemed like she moved on (she's beautiful, popular, and lots of boys chase her so she's not the type to get hung up on one dude). We still hang out and go to the gym though, but I can tell she sees me as just a friend. Bottem line is, I really like this girl, and I want her to know but I don't know if it's a good idea. Last night she text me about meeting up for coffee, because all her friends were partying and she wasn't in the mood to that night. After we got coffee, we went back to her dorm, got pizza, and watched netflix until 5 am. At 5 am I fell asleep on her couch, and she slept on her bed. I woke up around 1 pm today and went back to do some chores. When we were watching the show, I sat in the middle of the couch and she sat off to the side doing homeowrk. There was never any tension or anything, and eventually she just moved to her bed and I layed on the couch. So basically, friendzone. We are supposed to be getting dinner in a little while, should I just tell her straight up how I feel? I can handle rejection, I just don't want to make things weird.
