If you're not getting married, there is no relationship with this girl long-term. So let it get weord or fizzle or whatever. Shoot your shot and if it doesn't work, move on. No guys have girl friends outside of their wife once they're married.

Dating in this century sucks. Go back to the tried and true methods.

Ask her asap. If she says no or is weird, stop wasting time being her friend.

Your future wife endorses this advice. Especially if it’s this girl.

If she is actively trying to hang out with you and talking with you for hours,

Or, to play devil’s advocate, she enjoys the safety of the friend zone. Either

Yup, if she "likes the safety of the friend-zone" she needs to be "friend dumped" to know that zone isn't appropriate in

I'm not sure what "hanging out" means but you can just improve the hanging out

You need to Define The Relationship(DTR). Ask her if she wants to date or just be good friends.

Your status as homework buddy seems solid. And by that I mean, it doesn't seem like you are risking anything

Seems obvious. How about "So what do you think? Should we go out again?"

Ask her out again. Could be "the one."
