Long story short, girl and I used to be close friends but we stopped talking for like two years because i used to be very shy and insecure then i get a crush on her so I decide to text her back AFTER two years and we had a convo but she left me on read and here i am a year later.

Me and her have an art class together. She sits at a group table right by mine. Im really interested in her and no matter how hard i try i just cant get her out of my head. Its like, shes special in some sort of way. I dont know. She gives me butterflies and i cant say the same for all of the women ive talked to and had relations with. Anyway. We have the same art class together. And as far as i know shes single. And ive noticed shes been glancing at me and giggling at shit i say. Ive asked two different people on advice and one told me to just text her and tell her how i feel and the other told me to just make little slide comments and see how she reacts to them.

I dont care that much about rejection because hey, if it wasnt meant to be it wasnt meant to be. But if i am gonna do this i gotta do it the best i can. Whatever will get this stupid crush shit off my back. Advice?
