Search Results: approach a girl at the gym

Here is my story. I went to high school with a girl who I talked to every once in a while in class. I always thought she was beautiful, smart, and super charismatic but I never had a crush on her or anything. Well then we both go to the same university. The first day we move in, she is very persistent and asks me to hang out 3 days in a row, which we do. Now for the past weeks we have been hanging out 3-5 days a week and go to the gym together. I didn't allow myself to develop feelings at first because she is the type of girl just looking to have a good time freshmem year. Plus tons of guys hit on her. Well, the more I got to know her the more I fell for her. At this point, I really like her. Problem is I missed several oppurtunities to make a move. When we where first hanging out, she actually dropped strong hints she liked me, but I was timid those first few weeks because I didn't know. Now I am in a tough situation, where she has no idea how I feel and it would be weird for me to just start putting my arm around her, since we are good friends now. I am torturing myself keeping this in. A couple days ago when we were at a party a guy kept talking to her, and when they played pong he tried putting his arm around her a few times, and kept asking when she needed to be walked home (I walked her home). The next morning we where with the same group and she kept talking to him and approaching him, even played with his hat. It's my fault I am in this situation, but I was getting super jealous. I know rejection would suck, but it's so much better than this. I could get over it and we could still be good friends. Should I tell her I like her or keep trying to show her (which I suck at)? She even calls me buddy now.
